monome and ableton live
posted Dec 03, 2008
from the beginning people have been creating new ways of interfacing monome devices with ableton live. it started simply by having keypads send midi notes and lights activated by incoming midi notes. we’ve come a very long way, as the above video demonstrates: sevenuplive by makingthenoise using java.
also check out other ableton live interfacing projects: pages allows multiple applications to run at once, with multiple ableton-specific modes. monome basic uses the liveAPI and python. drumwreck, liveio, and livestep by anton interface with live in various ways.
