| Description: | In Live 9.5 the tracks automatically get a random color (this can be turned off) while all the new clips in session view get assigned with the same color as the track they're on. For me this is a horrendous change and a total deal breaker. I /need/ diversity in my test scores, I also /need/ the people who jam with me to be able to tell me what clip color I should play while testing / playing. While they can look on my screen they can't read the clip names. This device automatically assigns a random color to any clip which gets fired on an armed track so that we get the previous random color behavior back. Update 1.5: I now added a "gradient" option which will instruct the device to assign a color which is darker than the clip above the one you're recording in, thus creating a bit of a color difference. It seems Live's color palette doesn't really allow for this, but it's a solid start. |

| I'm going to do more testing to see if the color changes can be more smoothened out, perhaps Jitter can also help out with this. |

| The color will only get assigned if the track is currently selected as well as armed. |
| Think you could modify this, or make something like it, which would re-color clips based on the audio file's metadata (.mp3 'comments' field, etc.)? |
| Recolor clips based on contents is doubtful because you can't access the information of the source material (such as filename, path, etc.). |
