Fantastic script! I've been using it for a couple years now and it became a vital part of my setup. It's well layed out, makes perfect sense and tranforms the K series into a very capable controllers for Ableton Live. I'm not someone who's capable of writing scripts so when I first saw my K2 behaving similary in Live to an APC40 and had its own grid that I could navigte around the clips was like magic. I have two K2's now and prefer when the 2 grids follow each other and for that I use the Launchsync XL which I can also highly recommend.

Superb. Never thought I would get my trusty K2 to be a rock solid tool with Ableton 11 - thank you! On my Windows machine I copied the folders into "ProgramDataAbletonLive x.xResourcesMIDI Remote Scripts" to get it working.

Works awesome with my two Xone K2 (soon to be 3). Saved me lots of time writing a script for them.
Allen & Heath K Series XL by Sigabort
The Allen & Heath K1 and K2 Series controllers are a blank slate when it comes to mapping them in Ableton Live. Whilst you can achieve some stuff directly mapping to faders and the like this controller was crying out for something a little more dynamic, a little more DJ Like… I mean how many superstar DJ’s do you see with a pair of them next to their se up controlling elements of Live?!
Using the latest version of Ableton Live installation is a breeze, add a Remote Scripts folder to your User Library and drag in the two provided folders, no Catalina issues!
The control surface scrip then comes with the following features
- Fine & Coarse Tempo Control
- Master & Cue Volume Control
- On Screen Ring Focus Box, this can be moved around your Live set using the bottom encoders allowing the below mappings to follow along
- Send A, B, C Control
- Volume Control
- Arm / Mute / Solo
- Clip Launch using the Button Matrix with RGB Feedback for Clips
PLEASE NOTE: When using 2 K Series Controllers each must be configured with as its own control surface with Lives Preferences, the Ring Focus Boxes will initially mirror each other but can be operated and moved independently, as the MIDI Messages sent by both controllers will be the same you will have conflicts if you try and use traditional MIDI Mapping outside of the configured control surface script features above.

Our Products are generally provided as Zip file downloads which in all cases will need to be extracted and saved to your hard drive prior to installation. Details on the different file type provided and what to do with them are below.
.alp Files – These are Ableton Live Packs and will either install directly into the Packs Section of the browser of Ableton Live or ask you to save them to your hard drive. For packs that install to the library, when you double click on them you will see a pop up window asking you to confirm that installation is ok as the files are described as “Legacy”. This is fine and you are ok to proceed, the packs are created using the format for an earlier version of Live and so remain compatible with the current version.
Control Surface Scripts – Please refer directly to the supplied user manual for installation instructions, due to the changes in the Python language used by Live across versions of 10, 11, 12 and 12.1 you will need to ensure you have installed to the correct location and used the correct files as instructed and supplied.
