Retriggering "live.path"
Hey there! I'm developing a little patch that, once loaded in a Live session, extracts the number of the track it was loaded into. Now, I want to make sure that once I move the device from one clip to another, the track number updates. To do so I need to retrigger the live.path object whenever the channel changes, but no loadbang or live.thisdevice are helpful in this case. Does any of you have encountered the same issue? How did you solve it?
Cheers =
maybe a [live.observer] bind to the canonical path of the device ?
But if the device is nested in a/several rack, maybe the [live.observer] will have to look at the first canonical path that is a "track".
you can post your patch ?
the good outlet of live.path has to be used.
You have a point! The LOM doesn't seem to include any property for the track number though :/ Here's the patch, initialised with some random property.
Ideally I would get the live.observer to output the number of the track the device is currently loaded on/has been moved to, or even just a bang!!!
