Getting Live11 midi clip data and loading a live.step with it.
I am working on a project to get midi-clip data from the LOM and load it into a live.step. The Whats New articles/ examples have been crucial in showing how to traverse this complicated workflow, especially for someone not very good at javascript.
My question is about how best to go about this:
My assumption is that since a dictionary can be loaded into a live.step it might be easiest to get the dict from the LOM and then rearrange it to the live.steps likings (also assuming this is similar to what the live.step dumps when asked to dump a dict).
Is this the easiest way to go about executing my project, or is there an easier way?
Would love to see your patcher.
me too! please!
Hey sorry for the delayed response. But this Article, as well as the example patches. Really lay the groundwork for parsing the MIDI note data from the LOM and into an acceptable Dict format. Much better than I could probably explain. You can get the format that the dict requires by using the 'dump_to_dict' message on a live.step.
The article gives parsing examples in max objects and javascript, and I chose to do it in Js because there is much more help documentation for Js, and you can loop through the data much easier. Hope this helps.
