Back to the drawing board...

Wednesday, 13 January 2010 08:56 Bouke Groenescheij

Last night I finished the name, color and play status collection from available clips and fill the pad object with it (for the M4L Lemur ClipLauncher). The procedure works great, and the results are also 'ok'. But as the amount of visible tracks and scenes rise, the time to get the name, color and play status takes a very long time. I've tested this with a 16x16 grid, but scrolling through it just takes too long. So I guess it's back to the drawing board - I'm already looking at the "coll" object to cache the information and read from there. This project is becoming more and more challenging.

you'll succeed!
I'm working on improvements too, here.

From reading your other posts it looks like we had very similar issues in getting a decent clipgrid implementation for sending to Lemur. The coll object is indeed very useful for optimising the getting of clip details however I have found even then the whole thing is just a bit shaky.

I had started again with a Javascript implementation to handle the observers following on from code on the 20Objects web site (one of the creators of M4L) but have put it on hold waiting for news from Jazzmutant/Ableton about the new integration... Speaking of which, what news?

this JS is nice.
I tweaked it a lot and it works very fine as my grid handler for the protodeck controller:
