Hi! I am creating a series of M4L devices that use the same open gl context name. The context name is made out of the track id where the devices are sitting.  I have a device that I call "source" which is the one with the jit.world, and when I place this device alone in a track in Ableton, the jit.world window have the name of the context correct, and when I add the other devices to the same track, they all project into the same jit.world window. The problem comes when I close ableton project and open it again, then the jit.world window have a u<random number> type of name. I delete the other devices and the problem is solved. I can´t figure out why that is happening. I attached the source device and the other 2 devices patch.

Searching for someone who can help me with live streaming data from various API's into m4L. If all goes well, this would expand to also finding ways to port in sounds from web radios to either m4L or Ableton. This step will enable me to develop sound triggers and automations in Ableton for a live sound performance. 

This should be relatively straightforward for those with experience doing so, and would be a matter of dealing with the  particularities of the different API's I identify, and how to expose the relevant data in each.

Please let me know if you're interested and open to speaking more, or if you wish to share a proposal.

For a device I am developing I need to route the rotatexyz data so the user can have the option of moving a text display with jit.gl.text clicking and dragging with the mouse, or by typing the desired coordinates in a live.numbox. I manage to do it with the position of the jit.glhandle, but can't figure out with the rotatexyz attribute. I can send messages to the handle with a $1 and change each coordinate independently but when typing in x and then in y, x becomes 0 again.

 I am developing 2 max for live devices, one to control video clips playback, and another to overlay pictures on top of the video of the 1st device. They both share the same open GL context name base on the track id where the device is sitting. I manage to overlay the pictures but they appear as a black square. I experiment with the depth and blend attributes but none seems to make any difference, because the black square is always there.

Hey folks, I’m trying to build a small workflow tool for Live 12.

The idea is simple: I want to press a shortcut and move the currently selected track into a predefined Group Track, for example 

. If the group does not exist, ideally it would create it too.

So far I tried a custom MIDI Remote Script:

I also looked briefly at the M4L LOM side, and it seems to expose the same kind of properties: 

, etc., but I didn’t find a callable method to actually move/re-parent a track into a group.

Is there any supported or semi-hidden way, from Max for Live or MIDI Remote Scripts, to move an existing track into an existing Group Track?

Hey was hoping to get some guidance on where to start with this. Basically, I want each track on Ableton to be able to step at an independent tempo. I am using this great m4l device called Opal. I'm assuming it listens to the global tempo, but I was wondering if there was a way I could tell it to listen to a different tempo (without editing the opal patch)

I am trying to organize the objects of a max for live device that are already mapped in ableton move when the move is in control live mode. I would like certain objects in the device in certain banks in the move. In max, I can order the objects parameters, but they simply appear in sequence, so if I want only 3 knobs in the bank 1, I can´t jump to the next bank making the next object #9, because it will appear after the 3rd nob in the move. I see there´s a 

 object to deal with something like that, but that´s for the push. Is there something like that for the move?
