Can an M4L Device Get Clip Start / Stop / Loop Info?
Does anyone know if its possible to create a device that can recieve messages from clips that are played on that device's track (as an effect)?
In particular, to know the length of the clip playing and to be able to trigger action based on when the clip starts and stops playing..
The answer is yes. For details see documentation
thanks broc - problem solved. for anyone else looking to do this i used a [live.path live_set tracks 0 clip_slots 0 clip] connected to a [live.observer playing_status] object
this works when the clip is not in loop mode but am still yet to be able to trigger bangs each time a looped clip plays (ie it only triggers once when the loop starts)
