TouchLive 0.1 Preview

TouchLive 0.1 Preview

TouchLive is a program that allows you to use your Multi Touch display as a controller for audio or video software. TouchLive 0.1 includes a monome emulator, midi drumpads, mixer, transport, sliders and buttons.

In this video I am using TouchLive with Ableton Live 8.
The monome section (top left) is set up to display the ableton clip view. clips can be triggered and stopped by pressing the monome buttons. Clips that are triggered flash in sync with the tempo.

The mixer section (bottom left) includes 8 faders and record arm buttons. The record arm buttons let you select which track the drumpads send the midi notes to.



I wrote the software using python and the Kivy framework.

I use Myr's Clip Launcher max for live patch to send the clip information from ableton to my python app. Myr's clip launcher and other apps and abstractions can be found here: http://post.monome.org/comments.php?D...

Big thanks to the Kivy developers, Myr, and Nuigroup Community

This is so awesome! How did you get the communication from Ableton? Like, how did the button flash on tempo? Did you use the Ableton API?

Sorry I should have put that in the description. I use Myr's Clip Launcher max for live patch to send the information from ableton to my python app. A link to Myr's clip launcher and other apps and abstractions can now be found in the description.

Does it only work with Ableton ?

Or with any Midi thing - Mixxx or something similar ?

Thanks !

Hello, I have a DIY home table and use reacTIVision, I am somewhat lost in this Python but if I understand any language, I'm trying to launch your application but I can not boot, maybe I could throw a little help, forgive my English (translator from google). I am Spanish.

I own Python 2.7

PYMT

In the readme file to launch the configuration you say that you must enter the prefix monome, I wonder if you have to install something else.

Thanks for your time, impressive work

Where can I get a download for this?

Cool. I noticed some latency though. Is it because of Live, the monitor or both?
