Hello ,
I use Open Stage Control to communicate with ABLETON LIVE via midi interface and a 24 inch touchcreen.
I have a loop problem with the buttons while I have no problem with the faders.
my settings:

  • LoopMIDI -> port MIDIMIDI1
  • One PC (I7 , SSD ....)
    address : /note
    preArgs [1,60]
    target : midi:MIDIMIDI1

If anyone has had this problem before, their help would be helpful.

thank you

Hi,
Could you please explain what you call a "loop problem" ?

When I press the button, I have the ableton clip triggered and it loops very quickly in midi events. LoopMidi goes into "mute" mode so as not to block ableton.
After several tests, I modified by putting the parameter "/ control" instead of "/ note".
And it works much better
Here is my screen tonight ...

With 127x16 events, I should get by ...

Nice ! For what it's worth, O-S-C cannot produce event loop unless it's explicitly told to do so using a custom module (widgets can't send a message in reply to an incoming message)

ok, i think it's ableton issue ...
I'm new to O-S-C and think I'll find out why later.

thank you

Hello, I had the same problem with encoders and knobs. On the other hand, if I change "encoder" to "fader", the loop disappears.
Another case, if I create a button with / control instead of / note, the loop also disappears.

I progress :wink:

If you need any help, I'm using OSC with Ableton for few months now, haven't any feedback problem until now

Hello, thank you for your help.
I have several questions.

  • I would like to know what your ableton midi settings are in preferences.
    Because I always have a loop when I trigger a clip in ableton.

  • How do you manage to have a vumetre in OSC?

  • How to change panel with a button, or via the menu widget?

thank you

Patrick

I'm using OS X and not windows so OSC is creating a virtual midi device for me.
So this is my input "télécommande" in Ableton

To trigger clip I made a custom script that emulate the "red box"
This is the blank version for ableton 10 (not working on ableton 11, or you have to convert it using 2to3 python library.

I never did any vumetrer Maybe it's possible using Clyphx

Here is a simple script for controlling ableton I made : https://gum.co/Ableton_OSC_Script

Here is examples of menu, dropdown and switch :
menu-dropdown-switch.json (4.2 KB)

You can look on the OSC Forum I shared some patch and examples
And if you are French sometimes I make some live tutorial on twitch about OSC.

Hope it helps

Hello,
I tried your examples but I don't see how I can call the panels in a menu for example?

I am not an application developer ...
