Beta of Live Extensions SDK is available now. (Only in Live 12.4.5 Suite beta version)

Code in Javascript (NodeJS) every tools you want to manage your set or what you've got in mind.

Oh yeah, this looks great.

I can immediately think of several ways to help up my fudging about. I had some ideas with the unofficial Live API that let's you access some LOM objects but it turned out not to be doable. This looks to be more capable in that regard.

Ideas like merging clips, cleaning up redundant scenes and sequentially exporting a track to MIDI.

My only niggle is having to use nodejs to develop these, but at least we've got some handy tooling for that.

 

hmm well this is about to get interesting.

 

THIS IS COOLER THAN GTA 6

 

It would be better if they finally made a sheet/score view. So that the program becomes not only for one-button beatmakers, but also at least a little for composers.

 

finally i can play doom in ableton

thats where to find doom 4 live with all the other extensions off this video

Ah yes, the composer who doesn't know there are several very capable solutions for working with notation in Live.

Snobbery and laziness. Well done Beethoven. Impressive stuff.

Back to the topic.

 

Somebody already put this up: https://liveextensions.co

I'm not entirely sure how trustworthy this site is, and looks to me that extensions have fairly extensive (no pun intended) permissions so I'm gonna take care before allowing random code on my system. I'm sure Ableton will have a gallery eventually though.

But at least this gives idea what is out there and what this system is capable of.
