Overview
| Name | Version: | Archiduc 1.10 |
| Author: | chapelierfou |
| Device Type: | MIDI Effect |
| Description: | This is my new free M4L device, "Archiduc". It allows you to trigger various actions in your Ableton Live Set from a single MIDI track, using MIDI notes sent to a Drum Rack which chains are named accordingly to the actions. VIDEO PRESENTATION HERE : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hqaDSmPzz-U UPDATE 20250904 : Total rewrite of the internals : - FIX : simultaneous actions would not work properly - IMPROVEMENT : TRACK actions can be now be called by track names, which is quite a game changer as you can now reorder tracks without breaking the actions (just hit "refresh" after moving tracks) - ADDED : TRACK X DEVICE : selects devices - ADDED : TRACK X DEVICEONOFF Y : enables/disables a specific device UPDATE 20250630 : Addition of TRACK X RANDOMCLIP TRACK X RANDOMCLIP X Y CUEPOINT |

I love this device but I have one problem I'm running into. I'm trying to launch two clips simultaneously.. one arms track one, the other un-arms track two. The two signals wont register in Archiduc at the same time. They have to be done at slightly different times. Is there any way to solve this?

@mattjmeade :
Ouch....You've discovered a nasty bug/issue. There is indeed a problem with simultaneous messages. I have a very good idea about what's causing this, but solving the issue might or might not be easy.
I'll have a look into it as soon as possible, it's on top of my list. I hope to come with a fix soon.
Meanwhile, I would stop using the device, or at least avoid simultaneous messages (A small delay, like 50ms, between events should be enough).
I sincerely deeply apologize for the inconvenience.

BEAUTIFUL!!! I just came back here to find your video to get a better understanding of the tempo "offset" feature. Glad to hear theres even more! Would love to show off my use of the device to you sometime!

Am i correct in assuming that in randomclip Y Z that Y and Z would be the first and last clip of the range you want to randomize within?

If the device makes you happy, I'm happy ! I had to recode the whole thing when you made me discover my mistake, but I'm glad you did.
Also, yes, for randomclip, Y and Z is the range of clips.
For the "offset" of tempo function, it's simply any number that would be added to the velocity of the trigger note. Usually I would use 100 but it's up to you.
I'd be curious to discuss the way you use it, but unfortunately there's no PMs here. Maybe reach me through Ableton's forum ?
