Description

Update 5 Nov 2025

This device is no longer work. Ableton changed something with push or other controllwrs, I can't remember. Full details on gumroad.

Sep 2024: This device does not work with Live 12 (PC & Mac) and Push 2 or Push 3 unfortunately. Ableton changed the control scripts, and it doesn't look like there is a simple fix (search for "Push2UseLegacyScript" here: https://www.ableton.com/en/release-notes/live-12-beta/)

I think it still works with launchpads and other controllers, Push 2 seems to be the problem.

==

You can use MCG with L12 and P2 if you add:

-Push2UseLegacyScript

to the Options.txt file. Unfortunately this means you can't use some of the new ClipView display for Push 2 in Ableton 12, but it seems for now you can't have both.

-- Update v.19 (23 June 2019)

• Selected Control Surface (Push1/2/APCE etc) is saved and loaded correctly, before it had to be selected from the list again. The patch waits 5 seconds to make sure Push has loaded before recalling the setting.

• Previously scene names that only contained numbers wouldn't work, e.g. '4' now any scene name will work (now scene names can be a number only)

• Previously scene names with spaces didn't work, now they do (now scene names can contain spaces).

• Fixed a bug that prevented sessions with a high number of scenes from working, i.e. when there was a high number of scenes, the patch wouldn't workl

• Track and Scene updated from limit of 9999 tracks

As I've put quite a bit of work into this patch and I don't use it for my own live set, I am asking for a small amount to go towards a beer, or some nice biscuit. LEt me know if there's any issues.

--Updated v1.8 (2 May 2016)

Now supports Live 1.6, Push 2 (and Push 1) - BIG THANKS to @atomictag's patch! I've used elements of this to get and move the red session ring after some changes were made to accessing this in Live (and for Push2)

--Updated v1.6 (1 May 2015)

* bugs fixed

--Updated v1.4 (23 Feb 2015)--

* Removed limitation for number of scenes and tracks

* Preset/storage box 3 is now working

Move the control surface red box to up to 8 preset locations!

This device allows you to store 8 preset locations inside of your session that can be jumped to with a single click/midi mapped button.

Choose track and scene name for each preset, then press the button to jump to that location.

See video for quick overview, or click help button inside of the patch for setup details.

Limitations:

- track/scene names cannot be duplicates

- all folded tracks will be unfolded

- there is a small bug where the device won't re-load a preset correctly, if that preset is the same track that the move clip grid device is on, the track dropdown will show 'This track'. To avoid this, use the device on it's own track.

- it's a midi device and should be on it's own track. There is an audio device version available if needed, contact me.
