Performance Percussion
Performance Percussion for Ableton Live

One setlist. A connected-rig roadmap.

Rundown runs the set today. Cross-app recall for Ableton Live, patches, pads, and stage gear is still under integration testing. Treat this page as the intended workflow, not a promise that the whole rig follows yet.

Use one app by itself. Add the rest when your rig needs them.

How it works

Three steps. One show.

You build tonight’s order once in Rundown. The suite handoff from the setlist to Ableton Live and stage gear is the workflow being tested next.

01

Build tonight’s set

Rundown reads the songs already marked in Live. Drag them into tonight’s order without rebuilding the session.

02

Press GO

Use the big button in Rundown, a MIDI controller, or a footswitch. That is the only move you make on stage.

03

Verify each handoff

The target is for Live, patches, kits, and switcher pages to follow. Until acceptance testing passes, operate each app independently.

What is in the suite

Four jobs. One show.

Each app solves a specific stage problem. Start with the one you need; connect them when you want the whole rig to follow the same show.

Run the set

Rundown

Build tonight’s order and run Ableton Live from a stage-sized setlist. Rundown is the control point for the suite.

Connect the stage

Pathfinder + smaRTPath

See where MIDI is going, route it to the right device, and reach network gear without the usual setup maze.

Change the patches

Backline

Match each song to the right device presets, then let the setlist make the change on time.

Program the gear

Performance Editors

Build kits, presets, and switcher pages on a Mac instead of menu-diving on the hardware.

Start with Rundown.

It runs the show on its own. Cross-app cueing remains a roadmap capability until the full integration acceptance pass is complete.
