continuing my midibox/liveapi project

i'm finally continuing my work on using liveapi to integrate mios32 and ableton live. this works by giving programmers a large set of functions they can call to manipulate damn near anything in live. another set of functions are automatically called by live, allowing you to track whatever is going on. this will let users play a live set without ever looking at a computer screen. the possibilities can be a lot more than that.

to do this, i've made a protocol that works over midi and allows a midibox to seamlessly communicate with a liveapi script. on the programmer's side of it, you just have a simple set of functions to play with. look at it as a midibox API for LiveAPI, extending mios into live, and vice versa.

currently this is being developed for live 7.0.14. i'm fairly confident that most of the code will work for live 8, and i'll try to get a new version going once this is complete.

for a teaser, here are some of the functions at your disposal. keep in mind i haven't gotten to the clips, tracks, or track devices yet, but eventually you'll be able to go as far as bring clip or plugin parameter names into the midibox, and of course monitor what is going on with all of it. this list is growing by the day.

functions you can call from mios:

void MBLIVE_SONG_GetTransport();

void MBLIVE_SONG_SetRecord(u8 state);

void MBLIVE_SONG_GetRecord();
