Scroller for the launch clip multi pad grid

Post by enzobond » 10 Feb 2014 11:27

Hi mates..

anyone could tell me how create a scroller for a launch clips multi pad?

for example: i have 8x8 pads (the classic layout in ableton) but i need a bar (the scroller) to navigate up and down the grid (if i have more rows, obviously).

i don't know scripting language..and i suppose that a need some scripts to create the scroller..right?

thanks in advance

Hey enzobond,

welcome to the forum. :)
The Lemur gives you great opportunities for interaction. For details I suggest to go through the manual.

One solution for scrolling will be:
-create a fader beside your Pads
-create a script, make it execute on Expression - Fader.x - any
and some code like this:

setattribute(Pads,'rect',{105,Fader.x*724-724,919,1448});

with setattribute you can change the appearance of any object.
{}= X,Y, width, highth
So the pad object starts in my case 105 pixel from the left border (x)
We control the (y) for scrolling - if the fader is all up (=1), the y will be 0, if you move it down, it will bring the rest of the object up.
It is 919 pixel wide and 1448 pixel high (doublescreen)
Experiment with the values and fit them to your own needs...

For further details on setattribute (and other nice stuff) refer - step by step - to the manual.

Hope that helped
