Max for Live Resolume Patches

Post by bart »

phpBB [video]


Checkout this new set of Max for Live patches that allow you to control Resolume from Ableton Live without requiring any tedious MIDI mapping. You can trigger clips and control parameters so once it's all set up all you have to do is concentrate on your music and effects in Live and Resolume will just follow.

Clip Launcher
This is a simple way to connect clips in Live to clips in Resolume. Simply drop it on a track in Live, and it will trigger clips in Resolume when you trigger clips in Live automatically. It corresponds exactly, so clip 1 in track 1 in Live connects to clip 1 in layer 1 in Resolume, clip 2 to clip 2 etc.

Parameter Forwarder
Dropping this guy behind an effect in an effect chain, will allow you to forward parameter information to Resolume. You can choose which parameter you want to forward from a dropdown, and send it to any parameter in Resolume by entering the OSC address.

Resolume Dispatcher
The Dispatcher connects the Clip Launcher and Parameter Forwarder to Resolume. You always need to have an active Dispatcher in order to communicate between Live and Resolume (but you canʼt have more than one).

Hi Mattjs
These plugins are Dope! . . youre clip launcher is particularly very great and very stable. I am missing one function tho' It would be awesome to have a plugin that can launch clips very fast, sequenced to midi key notes played within ableton - good visual fun for fast breakdowns! :) There is an M4L plugin on the forum which does just this here -

viewtopic.php?f=11&t=7800&p=29303&hilit=idiron#p29303

- but there is a conflict between the two projects one needs bundles enabled one doesnt.
So there is no chance of working them together.
How can i bribe you to create something similar? ;)

Hi guys, thanks for the compliments!

Regarding bundles: it's not hard to modify the idiron patches to support this. I attached a modified version of the FFT to OSC patch that should do it. I recommend sending an email to the author to see if he's interested in making this upgrade permanent.

Another option would be for Resolume to build in automatic detection of bundles, which is part of the OSC protocol. The bundles setting in the preferences is essentially not necessary.

Best,
Mattijs

ah the only problem is that the clip properties are focussed when triggered by osc. making it feel like resolume 2 all over again.

Uncheck the box for 'Update clip panel on external triggers' found in the General tab of the preferences.
