Using Ableton Live's API and the Live Object Model to reprogram a Launchpad's controls, sequencer and behaviour through custom Max for Live devices.



The student must complete the prerequisite (Build Max for Live devices using Ableton Live's API, Session 1 & 2) before joining the live workshop of Control Surface Hacking with Live’s API. In this workshop you will build your own M4L device that integrates with and hacks the Novation Launchpad. This workshop aims to develop your skills and understanding of Ableton Live’s API and how control surfaces can be reprogrammed.
