Ableton Forum

I wrote a little tool which allows you to use Abletons Push controller with Cockos Reaper via OSC.
You can control track parameters, devices, transport and play the pads.

Get it from: http://www.mossgrabers.de/Software/Push/Push.html

Have fun

cool stuff Oh Dark Lord
was thinking of having another look at Reaper for final mixdowns.

Darth_fader, you have deserved way too little credit for you effort !
I want to thank you very,very much !

My main DAW of choice nowadays is Reaper (which is truelly an amazing DAW, way over Live imho).
So you can guess that your work for me is like being in heaven.

Looks interesting - any chance of.a version that runs in OSX? Is the exe just a max runtime or something more involved?

EDIT.
Never mind figured it out... looking forward to testing this.
