Help switching mode with encoder not working
Hi John, I did this but It’s not working with the encoder. As soon as I change it back to buttons it works. But not with the encoder :/ that’s why I open this case here.

Great, thank you! I will chick it out.
What you’re doing is storing the text string “” to a modifier and then attempting to send a midi value to it. Obviously its just a text string so this won’t work which is why you’re seeing the message: >> ‘str’ object has no attribute ‘send_value’
What I’m trying to achieve is to send certain velocity value to Launchpad’s button that was pressed last. I thought I could do this by storing midi address of a last pressed pad to a modifier, since modifiers can also store text, and then retrieve it in action “send MIDI velocity value to input”.
Great tip, I haven’t thought about updating json instead of .py. Thanks!
Hi, Are you referring to the reaction named “update modifiers” in your attached script? If so, you’re setting all of the modifiers to the same value with each loop iteration. You should have 1 action and update the modifier name each time: self.set_modifier_value(“m” + loop_number, self.get_list_item(“list1”, loop_number +1)) However, you may run into errors if […]
There’s not a mapping to clear the Ableton log.txt file. You don’t need CSS to be open in order to use your script/perform live using your script.
In your code, you are saving a string to the modifier and not a value. What value are you wanting to save to the modifier? If you’re wanting to store a reference to midi_note_ch_0_val_81 The code would need to look something like this: self.set_modifier_value(“m1”, self.midi_note_ch_0_val_81) However, I’m not 100% sure if this will work, as […]
Hi, There’s no need to keep the App open in order for the script to work in Ableton.
Thanks! Still not certain if that means I can send specifically the midi data from clips as they’re playing in arrangement view or session view. I don’t so much care about the events except for when the selected track changes so I know to start sending the midi notes from the new selected track.
