Controlling loop positions
HI all,
i'd like to control loop positions using m4l.
So far, i figured out how to retrieve their values using the property "get_beats_loop_length" and "get_beats_loop_start" in the live_Set path. The format is a string telling, measure.beats.thick,
anyway when i send it back modified from max to ableton it doesn't work, meaning it doesn't change loop points. Any idea? Maybe i'm just formatting the string wrongly. I can add my patch if you wanna try.
All the best
Alberto
For changing you may use the properties loop_length and loop_start.
Note however that in this case the format is beats (as float numbers).
Thanx broc i'll try that. Where do you find the property list for a given object?

In your patch try replacing the message [set value $1] by [set loop_start $1].
fantastic it works perfectly.
Thanks broc
