Summary

LCD is a patch designed to view current controller assignments and values on either your computer's screen or a connected iPad running Lemur software with the AumPad or Aum256 library installed.


It will display the current assignments and values for the following controllers scripts:


AumPC20 b993

AumPC40 b993

OhmModes 1.15

MonOhm b993

Codec b993

BlockMod b993

CNTRL:R


LCD will display the mapped parameter's name in the top pane of each object's cell, and update each time it changes. It will also display the parameter's value in the lower pane of each object's cell, and constantly update its value as its changed.


LCD will autoselect the current controller you are using, based on whether or not you've moded an control on that surface. It works hierarchically, so that if you are touching two surfaces at the same time, it will display values for the top one in Live's MIDI Preferences:Control Surfaces list until it is released, and then move to the next one if controls are still being moved. It will autoupdate to the next surface when a control is moved on it.


LCD Also has the capability of outputting to an iPad running Lemur with the AumPad or Aum256 template loaded. You must manually assign the address in order for it to know where to transmit, but the port is fixed at 8000.


LCD will only has a couple of controls:

LCD

Open the LCD window on your computer's screen.


Autohide

When autohide is selected, the LCD pane will only appear when you are actually moving a control, and disappear afterwards.

A limitation of this is that there is currently no way of bringing Live back to the foreground after the LCD has disappeared. You'll have to click on Live to bring it back to the foreground.


Address

This is the address of the connected iPad. You should be able to find it in your Network Preferences on the device.


X, Y, Z

This is the screen positioning of the LCD (x, y), along with its zoomfactor. Still working on this bit....
