Thanks.
All updated with the correct download!

OMFG - custom presets work! Awesome!
Did a quick ātech testā today for u-he Repro-1 to work through the process and replicated the first page of my published preset to work within your environment. Wicked..
Only wrinkle in doing this was that nothing was mapped by default in Ableton for Repro-1 so I had to hit configure and enable relevant controls (plus save as default configuration) for the files to be created in the DUMP folder during āon-the-flyā mapping.
Only pain now is that all of the controls are created as āthin slider barsā and everything needs formatting appropriately - I canāt see a way to convert one control type for another so I assume these have to be created manually and control parameters configured to match? Gonna be a bit painful but hey ho..
One other question is around the configuration of midi port/channel in the preset @jhh - given that your script grabs hold of various midi channels on port 1 (I see a number of generic midi devices when looking at the devices page) do I need to be careful about the selection of midi channel number in the preset?
Sort of dream come true for me as I now have realtime interaction between plug-ins and E1 preset; Open VST, preset updates.. just amazing.

Glad to hear youāre enjoying it!
Unfortunately, plugin support in Ableton is not that smooth. Mapping the parameters in Live is not always easy (and appears to depend on whether it is a VST2/3 or AU plugin).
Also, plugins (or Ableton, canāt tell who is the culprit) donāt really report parameter values in any nice way. As a result the automatic dumping process cannot do intelligent controls assignments (as it can do for Max devices). This explains why everything is a thin slider. Sometimes, plugins are so lame as to report their values so poorly as to be useless: youāll need to use the BORKED_DEVICES configuration option for those 
Regarding MIDI assignment: MIDI channel 7-9 are used by the mixer, 11 and up by presets. Your shouldnāt really need to change MIDI assignments though, and stick to the mappings in the CC map.
Only if they are racked and one uses the macros with vst3. If you donāt macro map them, but use the plugins directly, parameter values are fine.
Vst2 is supposed to be fine macromapped
The problem is that for VSTs, Ableton doesnāt automatically configure all available parameters, so you have to select them manually. For AU style plugins, sometimes the paramater range is reported as an integer 0..1 
- e.g. Arturia Mini V3.
Hi @jhh
Just thought you should know that the preset for Bass synth has something strange going on. On the LFO, selecting Sync/Freq is inverted as is the displayed control for Rate/Freq.
Not sure if this is a Live device mapping or preset issue.

Thanks for reporting this. Fixed it just now.
Brill - appreciate it!
Is it possible to just download the updated preset or do I need to grab the whole package again?
Si
You need to grab the whole package again, sorry. I maintain the premium package in a private repository.
Thanks @jhh
Before I break anything I just want to be sure Iām upgrading correctly as the process for premium package users is a bit unclear to me;
- Grab Standard download and run electron.pkg to upgrade base package
- Unzip to create contents in ctrlv2
- Grab Premium package and do the same again
I presume the premium package is via the URL link you sent to me last week via email after I was having issues with the installer creating xot?
Sorry to be a pain but I just donāt want to a) end up hassling you any more than I have too and b) break my environment
Si
You only need to grab the premium package to get the update for the Bass preset.
Thanks @jhh
Iāve run through the premium install process as per the help file in the download.
Only challenge I have is that I cannot find the file premium-upload-to-E1.zip anywhere in the source or in the install folder. Is this something I have to download separately?
Thanks,
Si
Hi, was looking for some advice, I got a new pc everythings great I have bought the premium content of this ableton script which I wasnāt 100% sure it worked on my last PC. Ive been very busy and often am so thought Iāll just move everything to new PC. Move everything over everything going great ableton script works perfect can switch between it and my hardware synths no problem.
I noticed a new template for the torso s4 sampler so I install that play around with it then go to bed. The next evening when I have time I turn ableton on and the script is not working at all. This was a few days ago before the new ableton 12.3 version which Iāve installed.
I have tried reinstalling the script and nothings changed, it still works fine on my old pc but on my new one it doesnāt appear as a control surface but it recognizes the midi device, when I twist a knob my blokas misi hub registers midi signals. I donāt underastand whatās changed. The only change on the electra is the s4 template. I was thinking maybe its caused a conflict and maybe delete it, it is assigned to midi channels 1-4 but thereās no issue witht he old s4 template or my old pc. I try to keep ableton script on midi 1 asnd my hardware on midi 2 ports so avoiding conflicts.
Any advice or ideas would be greatly appreciated Iāve reinstalled the scripts loads reset loads any advice would be great as it everything was working perfectly last week.
Iām sorry to hear the remote script no longer works. Out of curiosity: in which bank/slot did you install the torso 4 preset?
Could you start Live 12.3 and then send me the contents of the log file:
~/Library/Preferences/Ableton/Live 12.3/Log.txt(on MacOS), or~\AppData\Roaming\Ableton\Live 12.3\Preferences\Log.txt(on Windows)
where ~ stands for your home directory. Perhaps that helps to find the cause of your problem.
Hey thanks for the quick reply. One point of confusion with me is this home on windows 11 and it asked me to log in with my microsoft account and its really confusing me where user files are, thats maybe just me though. I installed the s4 bank one on 4 different slots the exact same as as itās always been, ableton mixer on bank 6 slot 1 Itās just the only thing I think Iāve changed recently before it stopped working. That said I have been installing load of vsts but nothing else of note. Heres the text file Thanks:
Log.txt (1.9 MB)
Thanks. I can see Ableton sees the MIDI ports of the Electra, but the remote script/control surface (ElectraOne) is not selected in the MIDI preferences. If it does not show up there as a possible selection, you did not install it in the correct folder on your new PC. See https://codeberg.org/xot/ElectraOne/src/branch/main/QUICKSTART.md for detailed instructions.
I dunno what I was doing wrong or differently or why it suddenly stopped working as normal but itās working now much appreciated, panic over thanks mate
No worries, happy to hear its working again!
