Another OSX alternative could be midiStroke; http://www.charlie- roberts.com/ ...and if you run your PC with Windows you may use Bomes MIDI Translator: http://www.charlie-roberts.com/ These utilities translate incoming MIDI events to computer key strokes. But I'm not so sure they can translate MIDI into mouse movements, as would be needed to change the meter in Ableton Live. Good luck, hope you get this solved. Please post eventual success story ;-) Per On 13 jun 2006, at 20.29, Craig McCollough wrote: > If you're on a Mac you can probably use MidiPipe to trigger an > applescript to control the UI and change the tempo - although I > imagine there will probably be quite significant latency. > > MidiPipe: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/16154 > Prefab IU Browser: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/ > macosx/18192 > Prefab UI Actions: http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/ > macosx/24580 > > Cheers, > Craig > > On Jun 12, 2006, at 1:20 AM, Per Boysen wrote: > >> On 12 jun 2006, at 10.09, Buzap Buzap wrote: >> >>> I still don't know if I'll be happy with Ableton for "Live" >>> situations.
