Ableton Clip colours >> LED colours (Session Box)
Hi John,
I just got a ‘Pro’ and now building my own script for a Novation Launchpad Pro. I’m thrilled, great concept, works fine for now. Thanks to John for all your effort and the great thing you made up to now!
But now I got stuck on a big issue – and I’m acutally wondering if I’m the first one having this question. I didn’t find any forum thread about this:
With the original scripts for Launchpad Pro, LP mk2, APC20/40 mk2 and Push the controllers’ LED matrix shows me the respective colour of the particular Ableton Clips. But right now it either shows me the unmapped standard colour or the set custom colours – both for each clip the same, independent from the Ableton clip colours.
Did I just miss the way to achieve this with Remotify or is it simply a missing feature yet? If so – when could it be there in the future?
I’m really craving to use a selfmade remotify script on my gigs all over, but it wouldn’t work for me without this feature.
Crossing my fingers for a quick solution 🙂
Thanks in advance!
Hey there!
Welcome to the world of Remotify Pro and thank you very much for the very kind words!
Yes, clip colour feedback has been requested and we’re currently investigating how to implement it into the App. The main issue is that every controller has a different set of velocity values to display its colours so we have to take various scenarios into consideration.
We’re working on it though, keep your fingers crossed 🙂
John
This is still a little while off being implemented.
In the meantime I can provide you with custom code for you to add to your script which will give you this functionality.
Its probably going to require a bit of back of and forth to get this working but will get you up and running quicker.
I’ll document the steps into a guide for anyone else who needs this too.
No problem 🙂
So that everyone can replicate, the way I prefer to do these ‘beta’ code snippets is to give people the piece of code and a short guide on how to add it to their script themselves.
Hope that’s ok.
Phranky, I’ll send you an email very soon. I have some code for the Launchpad Pro for you to try out.
Mcbeat – only for the Launchpad pro at the moment. The f1 will most likely require its own version to work. I’ll let you know when I have something.
