Introduction:
This Control Surface/MIDI Remote Script, providing total integration for Ableton Live 11, 12.1 and up, was exclusively built for MASCHINE MIKRO MK3, back in March 2021, but compatibility and same functionalities are now available and ready to use for MASCHINE PLUS & MASCHINE MK3, without support for the screens, 8x Encoders, 8x square buttons above the screens and other buttons not available on MASCHINE MIKRO MK3.
Several updates have been released since the first initial release and the continued development for this script will provide more future updates for new functionalities, fixes and improvements.

Notes:
This script is not for free, the development of this script continues for future updates, new features, improvements, support and bug fixes.
It is highly recommended to always use the latest version of this script.
The script requires the hardware to be on "MIDI Mode" (SHIFT + MASCHINE ICON button-press combination).
RESTART button is used for "SHIFT" operations, as we currently cannot assign any MIDI CC values for the physical SHIFT button.
Download:
You can purchase the script via PayHip (using PayPal or other payment methods PayHip offers for your country), from the following link or link-preview card:
Alternatively, you can use Gumroad (originally this product was published on Gumroad since 2021 and had all the audience and reviews there, but PayPal was removed and added back to Gumroad, so everything is back to normal in this store):

Soon I will build this new thread with all the information needed.
You can purchase this script from this link: https://gum.co/mmmk3-live-11-script
The installation guide is found under INSTALLATION.md file, which is included in the zip when downloading the v1.5.0 script after the successful purchase. You can open this INSTALLATION.md file with notepad or a Markdown file viewer for better visibility of the guide.
I will also make video tutorials and user manual for a smoother experience :)
Thank you,

Hello,
Could you, please, elaborate into resolving this issue together?
Please make sure to follow the installation guide by opening the INSTALLATION.md file with Notepad, Word or, preferably, a Markdown viewer.
Unfortunately, the user manual for using the script and tutorial videos are still in development, to be available soon.
Let me know more about this issue, please.
Thank you in advance,

Hello everyone,
Ableton Live v11.1 has been released, this means that the EVENTS + PAD 1-16 functionality of this script will select all notes of the corresponding pad for v11.1+ versions of Live. For versions of Live prior v11.1, it will always select all the notes, regardless of the pressed pad number, due to the Live's API limitations.
Regarding to user manual and video tutorials, it is still under development. The User Manual will be released first, then the video tutorials will come shortly after.
Stay tuned for upcoming updates and news,
Elton

Hello people! The script works fine and I think I have to get use to it but I have a situation a just cant resolve. the thing is that i cant press black note on keyboard mode when a scale isnot selected on ableton. when I select a scale of ableton keyboard, everything is cool and the maschine keyboard gets set on the particular scale. but when I dont select any scale and i suppose to press every key of the piola roll, the maschine controller only allows to press white notes on the piano roll. is this wrong?

Hello,
If you disable Scale from Live, it just disables the scale fold or highlights in the clip view/piano roll, but you have to switch to Chromatic scale in the dropdown of Live's Clip View, or via the controller while being on KEYBOAD mode, hold SHIFT (Restart button) and rotate the JOG WHEEL to the very left, until you switch to Chromatic scale (scale off). You will notice that Pad 1 and Pad 13 will be light brighter (root notes) to represent the Chromatic scale (all the notes).
Please let me know if you have further issues,
Elton

Hello Elton, before I purchase the script, I need to know if there is script compatible with Mac.
Thank you
0 -
Hello,
Yes, the script is compatible with Mac OS. I use Windows 10 & 11, haven't test it with Mac OS, but I have received good feedback that it works as expected on Mac OS, as well.
If you have any issues, please let me know, I can provide full refund if things don't work for you :)
Thank you,
Elton

Hello everyone,
The user manual development is almost near finish, it took a long time as the user manual is going to be interactive/web-based, also will be available as PDF format.
Video tutorials and tips will be published soon, as well.
Script development for v1.6.0 continues, as there are a lot of important features missing, such as Fixed Velocity, Chords, Step mode, etc.
Stay tuned for upcoming updates, please let me know about your suggestions, feature requests or issues.
Best,
Elton
