- r9295 3y agoHere's a repo with all "built-in" scripts for MIDI controllers decompiled. https://github.com/gluon/AbletonLive10.1_MIDIRemoteScripts/ https://github.com/gluon/AbletonLive10.1_MIDIRemoteScripts/ Have a look at pushbase and Push2 to look at Push source code. A starter kit I use when bootstrapping projects: https://github.com/R9295/ableton-live-control-surface-starter https://github.com/R9295/ableton-live-control-surface-starte... To the best of my knowledge, this is as far as it goes. The blogs and articles I found are mostly out of date as Ableton has two versions of it's API and blogs mostly use v1. I wouldn't work on anything serious using v1 of the API Many controllers, including Push use v2 as it's allegedly simpler and more featured. I talked to a person working at Native Instruments and they also told me that their experience with the API was a nightmare.

- davepeck 3y agoI don't know about the Push 3, but my impression with the Push 2 was that python code bundled with Ableton Live rendered the actual screen contents seen on the Push. Does that seem correct to you? And if so, with some amount of reverse engineering work, shouldn't it be possible to send those same pixels over to an iPad app that pretends to be a Push? (It wouldn't be the same without real pads/touch controls, of course, but it might form the spine of a pretty good remote control app?)
