Making Controller LED lighting up according to nber of Tracks

0

Hi everyone,

Thanks for having me.

I recently bought a 2nd hand Novation Zero SL MKII.

The associated “Automap” software doesn’t seem to work anymore, or at least, not on my computer, so I bought CSS to make my own remote script.

I watched most of the tutorial series, and I managed to make some basics navigation script, navigating through tracks, selected track’s devices, and so on
So far so good.

I’d like to take it much further and to really make my controller react to Ableton and vice versa, I assume that’s what “reaction” is ?

My idea would be to light up as much as LED on my controller as there are tracks on my session and delete a track would turn off the corresponding LED.
And also to have the name of the tracks written on the Display of my Controller.

I know it’s a lot but I can learn and I’m very persistent.

Thanks a lot !

Allright, I’m reading the document you linked to me “Programmer’s Guide for the SL MKII” –

It’s to understand which Midi Data are used by the Automap Protocol regarding the Novation Controllers, meaning the device should be in Automap Mode in order to used the Midi Datas that are shown in the document ?

I have the feeling I should get that right before continuing, otherwise I might keep using the wrong Midi Data.

In the meantime, I will test stuff with my Novation Launchap, which seems to be more straightforward, then I’m sure I’ll be able to convert the scripts once I figure out this Automap stuff.

Thanks a lot

PS : Do you think contacting Novation directly can be of help ?
