First of all, and as an early supporter, I must thank you for making MGP a fantastic tool, and let you know that I really appreciate your hard work developing and updating the app constantly. It’s a real pleasure to be part of this innovative community!
My system:
MS 6.1.2 / MGP 1.7.2
Hackintosh based on Intel Core i9-14700KF, 192GB DDR5 running macOS 15.7.2
iPad 5th Gen running iPadOS 16.7.16
iPad 6th Gen running iPadOS 17.7.11
-
A bug I want to report in MGP: Each time I’m in editing mode on one of the iPads (being them connected via Wi-Fi or USB) and the screen saver starts on the PC, the respective iPad freezes, forcing me to quit and restart MGP.
-
I use Logic Pro (12.2) and I really miss bi-directional communication (most probably I’m not alone), mainly for Volume faders, Pan and some buttons (mute, solo, etc), so I can use MGP as a real control surface. I know it’s probably not an easy task to implement MCU in MGP and write an MCU MIDI Device plugin for LP but I “envy” the people using Cubase and Live (actually you’ve spending some time developing a Python script for Live, so…), that can enjoy the wonder of having feedback from their DAW. Any possibility that this implementation will happen in the near future, It would be really appreciated! 
-
Talking about Live, I also use it for some live gigs for years, with an old KORG controller, but now, that I’m getting used to the MGP versatility and further possibilities, I’m thinking of substituting it by one of the iPads running MGP, but I got a problem because I can’t get Live to “see” MGP as a Control Surface, despite all the Metasystem MIDI INs and OUTs are there (including Live - In and Live - Out), as you can see on the attached screenshot. I’ve tried many times to install and uninstall the script, quitting and restarting Live, restarting the machine and… no chance! Any help, please?

Thank you for supporting us and kind words - it was a long road and even longer in front of us :-).

Ok - going to investigate and fix.

The bi-directional integration with Logic Pro is coming in 1.8.0 this summer.

Can you please check if the script files are residing in the Ableton Live user scripts folder in your setup? They should be installed from MetaServer to the right path - but perphaps they should be placed somewhere else on your setup? Please check and let me know.
