When Python Meets Ableton

Part 1 of a series in which I control Ableton Live from Python using my SCAMP Libraries. In this first part, we take a riveting journey through computer settings, play our first notes, and then speed it up to 60,000 BPM.

This seems kind of cool, but how do you sync tempo between Ableton and your script so that you can meaningfully integrate with existing musical passages?

[JonnyLuscious]

FL studio has python support as well if you need any ideas for other videos 😉

Cool video. is there anyway to use python to save or export?
say for instance, you wanted to let it record a randomized 8bar loop; could you have it record 8 bars and then export then record again and export?

Python and Ableton are two of my favourite things

If there were two Like buttons on this video, I would click them both

Cool Python package and nice tutorial! Incidentally, I believe it’s “theremin, ” not “theramin.”

[ВадимКарелин-бю]

it's very interesting. how i can choose random devices in my music folder for adding to scence via python? it may be scamp or another library?

[jahe]

Great videos, very usefull. Is it possible to use studio recorded real instruments samples in scamp ?

[delicious_crepes]

is it possible to create audio (not midi) outputs and feed it to ableton as well?

[Quantum-Entanglement]

Super cool looking tool, but please please please do not use import *, especially in a demo or tutorial file! It confuses things later on when you are using keywords that might be variables, inbuilt python functions, or something coming in from your package. (Not a super big issue with the short file used in the vid, but something to consider for future parts).

Hello sir,
What is the purpose of Python?
