Today, Ableton announced their new Connection Kit, a free toolkit for music makers who want to use Live with technologies such as Arduino, LeapMotion, littleBits, Lego Mindstorms EV3 and OSC.

Connection Kit developers pose the question:

Jan 03, 2017 unfa vlog #07 I'm talking about JACK - the amazing sound system that turns your GNU/Linux system into a recording studio. This video is meant as a quick-start guide for this vital part of GNU. Mar 29, 2016  KVR Audio News: Ableton has announced the release of Connection Kit, a free toolkit for music makers who want to explore the possibilities for interaction between Live and the world around it. If you've been looking to use Live with technologies such as Arduino, Lego Mindstorms EV3 and OSC, this set of Max for Live devices provides exactly what you need. Ever thought about using your webcam to. May 14, 2016  Hi All, I've just purchased an Arduino 101 and am trying to alter Ableton's Connection Kit so that it recognizes the 101 board. I would eventually like to. The Connection Kit is a collection of Max for Live devices that allow you to connect Ableton Live with several hardware or software technologies. Some of the devices provide a relatively generic interfacing framework between Live and a specific technology (e.g. Arduino, OSC Send), but most of them are only simple examples of what you can do.

“Ever thought about using your webcam to control a synthesizer? Imagine creating a soundscape using weather data from the web or stock market fluctuations, or even turning musical elements into physical actions through motors and servos.”

The new connection kit enables users to connect, control and monitor Live using various interfaces and communication protocols.

This set of Max for Live devices consists of 11 Max for Live devices: a toolkit for exploration, or to open up in Max and adapt to the user’s own needs. Some devices demonstrate how you can use each protocol to capture different types of data. The Pack provides a toolkit that is ready to use, or – for those with Max for Live programming skills – to open up in Max and adapt to your own needs. If you’re a Live user with a tendency for tinkering, Connection Kit opens up a world of new input and output possibilities for music and sound creation with Live.

Here’s an overview of how to use each device:

Lego Mindstorms EV3 – Connect an EV3 Programmable Brick to Live and get access to its sensors and motors.

Arduino – Connects switches, potentiometers and other sensors to control Live parameters, or use Live to control LEDs or Servos connected to an Arduino Uno.

Mixvibes cross 3 dj software. littleBits – use the littleBits Arduino with other input/sensor Bits to control Live. It also enables events in Live to control your other littleBits modules. Find out more about littleBits at the littleBits website.

Camera – fetches webcam data in order to control mappable parameters.

OSC Devices:

  • OSC Send – (pictured above) converts any mappable Live parameter to OSC data for sending out of Live.
  • OSC TouchOSC – allows you to map any controller from any available TouchOSC layout to live elements.
  • OSC Monitor – a simple but useful OSC data monitor.
  • OSC Leap Motion – uses Leap Motion to generate midi notes with the help of the ManosOsc application.
  • OSC MIDI Send – sends MIDI note and velocity data as OSC messages to a Processing sketch.

JSON Devices:

  • JSON Video – above, the example device on how to fetch web data in JSON format: uses #ableton tagged looped videos from the online video sharing service “Vine”.
  • JSON Weather – the example, below, shows how to fetch JSON data from the internet, parse it through dictionaries and query specific data content from it. (Weather device powered by Dark Sky API)
