Thank you so much, Guy! And thanks also for responding to me by e-mail, that's super kind of you. I've managed to marginally modify your code to make it work with Logic Pro X: it's amazing how easy it was! Logic immediately recognised the virtual MIDI port created by the Python program. And the IFTTT macros are super easy to make.
Thanks again: this video is the most useful one I've found on this topic (i.e. sync an "ON AIR" lamp with a DAW) for years.
In addition, I'm going to plug the mechanical ventilation system on a smartswitch with the same approach, so that it will be shut down when recording is on.
Any tips on getting this working with Logic? As far as I can tell the ‘Recording Light’ controller is meant for sending note on rather than CC…
@@robtaylor83 did you figure it out?
See Video description if you have trouble executing the .command file, there's a link that shows you how grant permissions.
This is fantastic! Great video! I was wondering if there was a way to make your app / this process work with a digital light? For example, if i was to code out a little resizable record button that goes on a separate monitor. So instead of turning a lamp on/off, it would change the color of an HTML/CSS coded button/app.
Thanks so much!
Hey! Totally possible and not too hard. Can you shoot me an email to remind me? I'll add my address to the description if it's not already there
@@GuyDupont Amazing! Email sent. I appreciate the help!
For anyone else who is interested in this, I've added a branch to the github repo called "web-page-version" that does this.
You’re a legend!
Thank you so much dude. !
Thanks for creating this. Question, Pro Tools recently removed the M-Audio driver and replaced it with Komplete Kontrol. How would we modify the script to communicate with this controller instead of the M-Audio?
Ahh good Q. I haven't used pro tools in a minute! I'll put this on my to-do list
Awesome little app, can I edit the program so it can send color changes too? Say red when recording green on playback and yellow on standby? Thanks for your help
Yeah there's a few ways to do this, I think, depending on which lights you use. It would probably be easiest to configure the color change as a part of the recipe on IFTTT. Looks like you can pass up to three different key/values as part of the webhook URL. Might be able to leverage that to include color data as part of the request
I really like the pseudo MIDI controller solution - didn't see that coming, I was expecting it to monitor key strokes or something
now you just need to make the script launch whenever you open pro tools, who has time to open two apps?
hi iam using govee leds in my studio that are wifi controled would i be able to hook these up to pro tools on pc?
would it work with api?
Thanks
Would your script work with a Philips Hue smart plug? I see that IFTTT supports it.
If IFTTT supports it, you should be good
@@GuyDupont Thanks for the quick reply!
Would this possibly work with Logic? Or is there possibly a work around?
90% sure it would work with Logic, but I haven't used it in a few years and forget exactly how to configure the MIDI output.
@@GuyDupont Okay cool, I'll try it! IF it doesn't work though, I'd totally pay you for a patch. Dude you don't know how amazing this is hahaha. I feel like more people should know about this workaround.
@@GuyDupont So I ran the command file and got this error - ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'rtmidi' I'll try continuing the process but I assume this will hinder it. Any work around?
@@GuyDupont And...
1 error generated.

note: This error originates from a subprocess, and is likely not a problem with pip.

@@GuyDupont At this point, I'd just be content using it with Pro Tools.
