| Description: | ArmTrick v1.0 Hello everyone, This m4l device arms one or several tracks. I wasn't able to affect a "Toggle" switch to a track’s Arm button in Ableton so I made this device. It's very useful when you want to use lightning pad and see the Arm button's state on a track. I use it with my Akai LPD and my Arturia MiniLab but i'm sure that it can be useful for other MIDI Controllers. The great thing is you can use as many device as you want in a project. You have tree ways to affect your MIDI Controller in the arm section: a button, a dial and a toggle. Use the best for your controller. For exemple, the Akai LPD8 works with the dial and the arturia MiniLab with the toggle button... Important: The Midi Controller you want to use has to be in Remote Mode (in your Live's preferences) and it needs to send CC info (not notes). Classic Mode Apply the device to a track, affect the device's Arm button to the pad you want (using cmd+M or ctrl+M) and that's it. MultiTrack Mode In this mode, you can choose how many tracks you want arm and it will arm the next X tracks. I use it for my ROLI Seaboard Rise since it needs 16 MIDI tracks to work, but you may want to use it for something else. FreeMode In this mode, you can choose the tracks you want to arm (16 tracks max). There is an MIDI Effect version AND an Audio Effect version (if you like the device stays above or after everything :) That is my first m4l device so please let me know if you have some trouble or improvement to share. Enjoy the arm trick :) Meandthe |

Thank you so much for this and the audio version. Setting up a Seaboard is annoying with Live but your work makes it much easier :)

Unfortunately it does not save the settings. So I cannot save my instruments with the device but have to set it up every time again. Also it is only arming 15 tracks even when set to 16. Can I contact you and we figure out whats wrong?

To save your devices, you can group the whole thing (armtrick+your instrument), it works here.

Hi. Great job. Thank you.
About your answer:
"To save your devices, you can group the whole thing (armtrick+your instrument), it works here."
Grouping is the only way to save MultiTrack/FreeMode choice?
Thank you in advance

I guess so, for this version.
I'm working on an update, but m4l is quite time consuming.
