LiveAPI

LiveAPI was an exciting project to develop.  Due to my work with PlayLive, I was contacted by Nathan Ramella and James Andrew when they discovered that the midi device scripting for Ableton Live was done in Python.  By decompiling the midi remote scripts we stumbled across an entire Python API within Live!  We ended up writing some new remote scripts for Ableton that let people access these internals through telnet or OSC.

Here’s the CreateDigitalMusic article on the original release.

I’m not terribly involved with this project anymore, but am very proud to see that through the powers of open-source others have taken up the mantle and made this project their own!

The current community seems to be centered around this site.
