[SEEKING] Ableton Live remote control for OSX

My Mac running Ableton Live is part of my live stage setup.
There are times that I need the front of house to make a change to my Ableton Live session. Adjust mix within the multiple Ableton tracks, Track EQ, etc...

Is there a software utility out there that runs on OSX that is like the touchAble? Connectivity would most likely be over Ethernet or WiFi.

[EDITS]

So you want Live to react to OSC?

Then you need ClyphX Pro...... Just updated to work with OSC...

As an alternative, should I simply let the Front of House remote control my Mac using Remote Desktop? That scares me.
I am already running ClyphX Pro in my session... how would that help me to allow a remote system to view the Ableton Live VU Meters, EQ and adjust levels?

If what you want to do is let FOH mix you on the fly as if you were a band maybe an out the box alternative - run through an XR/MR-18 or similar and let FOH remote control the mix and EQ via that? Or is it vital that FOH canactually mess with the Live set?

Downside - will cost a bit. So if you want is basically a free utility it won't be what you want.

Free is not mandatory.. as you see in my signature, I'm using an XR18 live. I don't have my individual tracks in individual channels. I have a Ableton L/R in a stereo channel.. then all my keys have their own channels.
Yes, looking for FOH to mix within Ableton mixer.
