Pantani/ableton-mind

What it does

Pantani/ableton-mind is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that bridges AI assistants like Claude with Ableton Live, enabling remote control and automation of music production tasks. It allows users to inspect Ableton sets, create and manage tracks, scenes, and clips, load audio devices, apply pre-configured music recipes, and verify all changes are synchronized with the Live application state.

How to set up

Install the MCP server on your local machine as a bridge between your AI assistant and Ableton Live. Configure the connection in your AI client (Claude, Cursor, or Codex) to communicate with the local Remote Script endpoint. Ensure Ableton Live is running on the same machine for the integration to function properly.
