LTC Display – Timecode Reader for Ableton Live

LTC Display decodes the SMPTE timecode and frame rate embedded in an audio track and displays it as it comes in. Just drop the Max for Live device on your timecode track and you‘re good to go.

You can generate LTC audio files using the free ElTeeSee tool: https://elteesee.pehrhovey.net/

Copy to Clipboard
