Description

This plugin adds new buttons/controls and new features to work with Ableton Live. It consists of a button bar with a transparent background, where different button configurations can be created. The button bar can be positioned anywhere on the screen.

Main features:

- Adjustment of clip parameters without having to open the clip detail view, such as volume, transposition, groove selection and others.

- New mode to capture and insert scene.

- Global activation and deactivation of tracks.

- Alternative way to move loop markers in the arrangement.

- Automatic reset of overwritten automation when starting or stopping transport.

- Automatic unfolding of the track selected in the arrangement and folding the other tracks.

- Track colors to clips for all tracks in the project.

- Volume, Pan and Send controls for the selected track.

- Session view clip duplication and triggering of the new duplicate clip.

- Switch between different Live color themes without opening the preferences window.

- One-button access to various Live actions that are only available in context menus.

- Creation of presets with different layouts that can be loaded using key mapping.

- Button/control size adjustment to fit any screen resolution.

- Supports multi-monitor setups.

- Does not interfere with Live’s undo history.

- Matches Live’s color theme.

    Excellent Stuff. Only one important thing missing. Midi Mapping ability please if possible.

    also the midi transposition by semition would be nice addition

    Enabling the mapping option for controls messes up the undo history. As far as I know, it is a limitation of Max for Live that currently has no solution. Regarding the transposition by semitones I take note for future updates.

    I second the request for midi mapping. I understand that it makes undo less usable, but I crossed that bridge many moons ago. Being able to map a CC message to the Insert and Capture Scene feature would solve a workflow issue I’m running into with Touchable Pro.

    Finally got round to buying ATB and Im really disappointed. It does look great but the icons keep POPPING out of PLACE, they get really stretched randomly and never maintains its place.

    @DavidSeekolaMusic - It is a problem that happens on some Mac computers but there is a device configuration procedure that fixes it. I sent you an email on October 13 at 6:40 p.m. but I did not receive a response. I am writing to you here in case the email has gone into the spam folder.

    I dont understand, this only works on Windows?  nothing for MAC.  I feel like that should've been mentioned earlier, in bold, higher in the ad.  it may have been mentioned.  but I was really looking forward to using it - but I cant.  cause its "only for windows". dmmT

    I agree with jyymxx: maybe the windows only caveat could be more up front. My bad. I was on a buying spree. I did read the manual but not thoroughly enough I suppose.
