As an example, I have a vst loaded in the first slot of the first track. The path of its power button is "path live_set tracks 0 devices 0 parameters 0"

Is there a way to set up an observer to watch this? Property "is_enabled" can't be listened to.

Thanks for any info.


can-a-devices-statusi-e-enabled-be-observed

path live_set tracks 0 devices 0 parameters 0

for the first device on track 1. the first parameter of any device is always it's on/off switch.

Then set the property to 'value' for the observer. 1 = on, 0 = off.

Yes!
Set up a live.observer with a path like:

Then set the property to 'value' for the observer. 1 = on, 0 = off.


Thanks. I thought I tried "value", but your patch works! I really appreciate it.

Evan,
Thanks.  I thought I tried "value", but your patch works!  I really appreciate it.


Can a device's status(i.e. enabled) be observed?
