8 – THE INFO FRAMEWORK

When you launch a track, the info frame displays the information of the current track (which you entered in 
the name). If you change the next track using the jog wheel, the frame information changes to italics and 

shows you the information of the next selected track..

8 – 1. Bpm

Bpm currently only accepts integer values without decimals.

8 – 2. Key

You can enter the tone within the limit of 4 characters.
You can also use this insert to write down other information, within the limit of 4 characters.

8 – 3. Duration

The duration of the title can be entered in the form "minute: seconds".
You can also indicate the duration in seconds, the LIO BOX will convert the duration to the minute / second 

format.

9 – COMPUTER CONNECTION STATE

9 – 1. Scripts

The LIO BOX works with Ableton thanks to a script that loads with the session.

As with any controller, you just need to load it in MIDI preferences.
Given the change in Python protocol between version Ableton 9-10 and Ableton 11, you must load the correct 
script corresponding to your version of Ableton :

- « Lio box Ablt10 » versions 9 et 10.
- « Lio box Ablt11 » version 11.

When you use two computers in redundancy, you will have to load in the second computer the script "Lio box 
spare Ablt10" or "Lio box spare Ablt11" depending on your software version..

9 – 2. MAIN computer

When the script is loaded into Ableton preferences, the LIO BOX sends and reads MIDI information from the 
main computer. In this case a green logo appears at the top left. If the computer is disconnected, the green 

logo disappears and a red cross appears.

9 – 3. SPARE computer

When you load the spare script into the second computer, the computer is identified by the box as a spare

computer. The LIO BOX therefore sends information to the spare and does not display feedback from the 
spare computer in order to avoid conflicts with the main computer.

When connecting the spare box, the LIO BOX compares the track lists of the main and spare computer in 
order to ensure that the sessions are identical. If the lists are not identical, the box signals you and invites you
to check Ableton.
