seemingly missing a way of starting the recording of audio clip (midi clip does work, but need audio clip recording on/off toggle) #94

hi, i'm trying to wrap my mind around this repository. my usecase is this: i have 15 audiotracks which are all armed, and i'd prefer to send them "record audio to this slot" messages in the session view.

i thought it would be /live/clip/fire but apparently not. Is there a way of starting the creation of a clip

then i tried if it might be /live/clip_slot/create_clip but that only works for midiclips.

i'd love to be able to start/stop the recording of one specific audiotrack. what's the process?

Hi @esaruoho, you were very close — there is also a /live/clip_slot/fire method. It's similar to /live/clip/fire but operates on an empty clip_slot, so can be used for recording.

You can then call /live/track/stop_all_clips to stop the recording (or /live/clip/fire to start playing the recorded clip).

Hope that helps!

hi @ideoforms , /live/clip_slot/fire is missing from the readme.md. i don't know how to find out which other functions are missing, or how to find the missing functions out.

Ran into this same issue, was wondering why clip/fire wasn't starting any recordings or group tracks! Switching to clip_slot resolved both issues. Thanks guys!
