If you want to quickly test the device, please use the one in /release directory.
- Ableton Live Suite for Mac 10.1.2 or later
- Or if you really need to use a previous version of Ableton Live Suite 10.x, you have to update your Node for Max package to the latest version (version 1.2.3 or later) through Package Manager, or use the latest version of Max (8.1.0 or later)
- Currently the device supports Mac OS only.
- When you keep generating rhythms continuiously, Node for Max crashes with "Max API Timeout" error in some occasions and you'll see "Model is not trained yet" error message.
