[DONE in 5.5] Ableton Link

Postby varikusbrainz » Tue Dec 22, 2015 10:52 pm

Title says it.

I'd like to see Ableton Link integrated, theres a whole raft of iOS apps with it already, though Android's latency issues make it slightly less exciting but still usefull

Ableton Link is on the plan for future releases. But there is no e.t.a. yet. Ableton Link is only available for ios at the moment. I'll contact Ableton in January, the we see if there's something going on for Android.

The point is that Ableton Link is not yet available for Android devices.
If it will be available on Android someday, then G-Stomper will get it, but til yet, it's not possible. Ableton only rolled it out to IOS yet.

I want to try using Ableton Link to connect my Tablet and Phone together - to play G-Stomper simultaneously in sync.
Somewhere I read that its easy - by connecting both devises to the same wireless LAN.
So I dont have wireless LAN- or does WiFi tethering fall into this category?

If you do not have a WLAN/WiFi hotspot, then you can create one with your mobile device, yes.
But keep in mind, that in 99% of all cases a device cannot act as WiFi hotspot and connect to itself at the same time.
So in other words, you'll need a dedicated device that acts as WiFi hotspot.
My recommendation is to use a dedicated WiFi hotspot (a specific device, not an android device). There are many such devices available below 50$. I use a normal Netgear WiFi access point.
But at the end it's your choice, as both works well, Android device as hotspot or a dedicated WiFi access point device.

Also, the WiFi does not require internet access, as it's only used for local communication between Link enabled devices.
