Looks interesting - I'll give it a try. But I'm already so enamored of TouchOSC that I'm willing to try to work out the kinks over time. I haven't even tried some of the more complex controls yet. And the next version is supposed to have a means for creating custom UIs. That may be the point at whic...

Thanks for the responses. Here's what I've figured out: TouchOSC has two types of buttons: "push" buttons and "toggle" buttons. The push buttons are stateless, and your suggestion works perfectly with them. In fact, they work just fine when mapped to MIDI CCs as well. But the tog...

I also would like to have the option of automating solo. Good argument for not automating it, but on the other hand, I would love to be able to solo my return tracks at certain points as part of the performance.

Think I've found my answer here: http://forum.ableton.com//viewtopic.php?t=103118. Some of Live's toggle-able controls respond one way to MIDI CCs, and others respond differently. It depends on whether the controls can be automated (apparently solo can't - I didn't know that). Track activate buttons...

OK, I think I just figured out what the problem is, but not how to solve it. OSCulator is sending 2 different values for the MIDI CC messages. It sends 127 for on and 0 for off. Presumably this is because TouchOSC is sending 2 different messages from its toggle buttons. But the Live controls change ...

I am using MIDI learn. There's no other way to assign MIDI messages to Live's controls, is there? Thanks for the pointer to the templates. I hadn't been using those, but I just opened up Mix16.oscd and it's very similar to what I had already set up. And toggles don't work correctly for me with eithe...

Really loving iPhone TouchOSC + OSCulator + Live right now. But I haven't been able to make TouchOSC's toggle buttons actually toggle things in Live. I think I've tried every combination of OSCulator mappings but so far I haven't been able to get it to work correctly. I just want to do simple things...

I should have updated this thread earlier, but it slipped my mind until I noticed how many views it had. DeadlyKungFu has set up a Google group for organizing bay area jams and we've already had a few in SF. Very ad hoc, very eclectic, and very fun. PM DeadlyKungFu or myself if you'd like to be adde...

I'm not on Intel yet, but it is supported now: http://www.cycling74.com/story/2006/8/3/102517/2327. Maybe you just need the newest version.

I'm using Soundflower to route stereo sound from other apps into Live. No matter what I set for the buffer size in Live's prefs, after a few minutes the sound begins to get noisy (crackly, actually) and the only thing that seems to help is to increase the buffer size. This happens repeatedly every f...

+1 This would be really nice for me as well.

I think he (she?) meant you don't have to use the mouse to choose the right value (Relative) from the menu. There is autodetection - if you turn the 4control knob slowly counter-clockwise, Live will guess the correct mod, often correctly. Of course you're stoked when you find that out, then you real...

Big +1. Huge.

Watching MIDI Monitor as I used the 4control the other day, I realized that the key to reliable autodetection is to turn the knobs very slowly when mapping. The faster you turn the knobs, the further from 64 are the values sent by the unit. As long as you turn slow enough to only send 63's, Live has...

OK, DeadlyKungFu has found us a space (in the Mission, not Lennon), and we have tentative dates of either 10/21 or 10/28. PM either myself or DeadlyKungFu for details and let us know if you have a date preference.
