fyi…

to install firmware:

  • download 1.1 firmware
  • download and install new 1.1 ERAE Lab.
  • connect Erae Touch
  • launch Erae Lab (it will warn that it cannot read/write your layouts)
  • click on the "Erae Touch v1.0.2, in top right
  • you can drag n’ drop firmware file onto the dialog that appears
  • start update, and does this very quickly :slight_smile:

note: you will probably want to backup your layouts as the update overwrites them.

extra changes Ive spotted :slight_smile:

  • long press HOME : puts Touch in standby
  • HOME + octave down : auto calibration
  • ALT + octave down : manual calibration

(the manual seems to have been updated to include these , except the ‘standby’ mode ?)

k, some good and bad :wink:

the good :white_check_mark:
the erae manual now has links to the API documentation and the Ableton Live scripts. (*)

the bad :negative_squared_cross_mark:
the ableton script still does not work

EDIT: now working, see post below for working scripts.

(*) Erae manual error (macOS/Ableton)
do not install within the ableton package as the manual suggests, as an ableton update will immediately delete it … and stop it working.

instead it should be installed in
~/Music/Ableton/User Library/Remote Scripts

this is preserved across Live updates.

I had first a failed fw update message. Powered it off, trtried, then success.

some good news, @embodme have now released ableton scripts that work with firmware 1.1

just tested, and its working nice with Ableton Live 11 on my Mac (m1)

see this post for the updated scripts, the ones in the manual are currently not the working ones.
