Push with Bitwig Studio

[sebastianc31]

Any news of when a script for Ableton Push might be available for use with Bitwig Studio?

[barryfell]

There is a thread started by someone developing one here.

Not sure what's happening with it though.

Hi,

I'm also "working" (when I have time) on a controller script for push.
Right now it is not much useful, but you can use the pads and the rotary encoders.

Check it out: https://github.com/abique/bitfeel

Cheers.

PS: one of the thing you can do to help me is to find the reference of the MIDI messages of Push. Because right now I'm doing some kind of reverse engineering and it takes time. I did not find a reference on the net. Thanks!

Thanks for the info everyone!

@abique - you can find some info here: http://julienbayle.net/blog/2013/02/abl ... user-mode/ (http://julienbayle.net/blog/2013/02/ableton-push-in-user-mode/)
additionally you can put push in user mode in Live and MIDI map something. it will show the CC/note when mapping.

also I appears that sending midi messages uses the same CCs as receiving. so you have (status, data1, data2) where data1 is cc, data 2 is midi note on/off and the status will select the LED color. I was also working on figuring out the color numbers, but i'm out of town for the weekend and don't have access to that info.

Thanks, I've already mapped almost all of the incoming MIDI messages, but it the outgoing ones that I miss, for example how to write on the screen or light the side buttons.

I'm back to work, you can find on me on irc.freenode.net, #bitwig.

Cheers

I am working with the Push as well, did you happen to figure out the side button led lighting?

I have looked through the core Ableton .py files and can't see anything obvious for them. The display was in there for sysex messages but no button LED stuff.

Also searched the net with no luck of documentation.

Not yet, but it is a matter of time

The (late) easter bunny has brought you a Bitwig script for Ableton Push:

To answer your programming question look at Push.js in the download.

[abique]

Thanks, this is most welcome

[TeotiGraphix]

Yeah thanks, looks like there will be multiple implementations for the Push controller out in the wild.

I am still pushing ahead with the version I am working on with another and finally figured out the button lighting which was the last weird thing I had on my list to get.

@moss what is your source code liscense?

Hey guys, why not post your projects to github so we can all see your progress and theoretically contribute?

[TeotiGraphix]

Mine is going to be on GIT hub but its not ready for public consumption.

I have ideas for the controller that vary/add from the Ableton straight off implementation, thus I will trudge on my way. This script will definitely be supported as my other job is musician.

So I am working with sherman and we are basing the impl off an abstract framework for Bitwig controllers, I have 3 other controllers I am doing after the Push that I own so we wanted to see how we could encapsulated code for reuse.

Base I am using;

Maybe we could try to unite and work together?
