Ableton Live MIDI Remote Script / Control Surface

That is strange. I’m on 12.1.5 as well and this is the path the remote script is in for me. Can you send me a screenshot or listing of the contents of /Users/stephankerkman/Music/Ableton/User Library/Remote Scripts/ElectraOne ?

Sure!

That looks as expected. Can you send me the logfile? I.e. /Users/stephankerkman/Library/Preferences/Ableton/Live 12.1.5/Log.txt

This is so weird. Just to refresh the log for you I retried starting Ableton, and there it appeared!
When I try to backtrace, the only thing I just did, was delete the contents of the install folder within the remotescript folder.
Or this is a typical symptom of ‘when the doctor is in the house…’… :wink:

So, guess I continue with next step in the instructions.

Well, maybe an explanation there. I’m now on 12.1.10, it got auto-updated.
–edit

It works!!! Yay!

Hi

There is a bug in the file config_mixer.py on line 45 in the ZIP-file ElectraOne.MacOS.zip.
There is GENERATE_PRESETS_ON_THE_FLY_CC = Nne instead of GENERATE_PRESETS_ON_THE_FLY_CC = None

Thanks for spotting this; should be fixed now

Thank you, and thank you for all your work!

Hi!
Im trying to make this script (the new one) and Ableton 12.1.10 sees the remote control script in preferences, I can select it ands I have setup the Ins/outs as per the manual.

Unfortunately I dont get anything to work.

I was wondering if other Control surfaces could be affecting how this one works?

Ive disabled most of them but no luck so far.

Can I please send you my log file?

Cheers!

Please make sure you select port 1 of your Electra both as input and as output port for the ElectraOne remote script. (I’ve updated the readme to try to make things clearer).

If you still can’t get it to work, sure you can send me the log file if you want.

P.S.: This instruction is for MacOS. On Windows, the port you need to select is simply called Electra Controller (the other ports that are not used by the remote script are called Electra Controller (Port 2) and Electra Controller (port 3)

Hi! Thanks for the reply.

Yes, I have the surface control setup for Port 1 as in and out, and on the midi as remote only.

My log file txt its in this directory:

/Users/joselborracherobonilla/Library/Preferences/Ableton/Live 12.1.11

and my electraone folder is in:

/Users/joselborracherobonilla/Music/Ableton/User Library/Remote Scripts

Ive sent you the log file thru a dm.

Thanks for your help!




The Ableton Remote Script has been updated to be compatible with Live 12.2. Enjoy!
