title: How to send clip names using LiveAPI (of Ableton Live)
body: <p>When an audio or midi clip is played (triggered), its name needs to be sent using OSC to <a href="http://vvvv.org/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">another application</a>.</p>
  
  <p><a href="http://www.assembla.com/wiki/show/live-api" rel="nofollow noreferrer">LiveAPI</a> is an interface which allows one to explore and automate <a href="http://www.ableton.com/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Ableton Live</a> using python scripts.</p>
  
  <p>The code to do this must be written in a python script, which must be placed in a specific folder where Ableton Live can find it, selected in Live's Preferences.</p>
