Hi Glenn, Thanks for the feedback – I am aware of the error and initially also thought this would be part of my problem. I troubleshoot what was triggering the issue and found out that it was to do with the chain selector going beyond the scale of the number of chains. In my utilisation […]
Thank you for the explanation! So if I understood correctly, the control setup should look something like in the attached screenshot?
I don’t think it’s possible through CSS (I haven’t come across the feature) but I think it’s possible from within Ableton itself, although I have trouble finding a tutorial for it. The gist of it is that you can send MIDI notes to your controller. Controller Buttons are linked to a certain Note, so “playing/activating” […]
As a Listener in a Reaction you can use “Script > Session Box Position Has Changed”. Your Action would then be to send a Parameter Value to the MIDI Controller. You could use the Session Box Offset, this is the index number of the left most track inside your Session Box. This is the code […]
A MIDI Controller doesn’t send continuous signals, like you would expect with electrical signals. It sends strings of bytes whenever an event happens; it’s a digital signal. Momentary means that a certain byte string is sent when you press the button, and that another byte string is sent when you release the button. By default, […]
When I tried your script with my device, I got an error when the Chain Selector Value was higher than the amount of available Chains (with Device in the Chain). Maybe this error is causing your problems. Here are 3 ways of dealing with this error: 1) LOOPING THROUGH THE CHAINS json file = testt […]
….It doesnt make any sense to me? If the parameter is moving within ableton then why is it not sending data?
When I set up the CSS Log so that it displays the value of the relevant device parameter. It does not output any numbers to the log. When first initialised it works, when I change the chain selector and move the push device, the device parameter changes but does not show on the log. When […]
The issue is for sure something to do with the Push. I have stripped the script down to the raw basics. Whenever I change the chain selector and start with an input from the push it does not update/move
if anyone is out there, I am desperately calling out, I would love to pay someone with more knowledge than I have in order to over come this issue. At the moment the whole concept of my live set rests on this functionality and I’m not getting anywhere closer to working it out….
