Publishes the Akai Force's main output as an Ableton Link Audio channel while the Force stays fully standalone. Pads lit, screen alive, no Computer Mode, nothing flashed.

Any Link Audio receiver picks it up: Ableton Live, an iPad, another machine on the LAN.

Install

Copy the ForceLinkAudio folder to <SD>/AddOns/ on your MockbaMod card, then over SSH:

cd /media/662522/AddOns/ForceLinkAudio
sh install.sh

Reboot. It starts itself from then on.

install.sh restores the exec bits that zip strips, so do run it rather than copying by hand.

Notes

  • Stereo main mix. The Force presents 4 channels to ALSA but 3/4 are silent, so no per-track stems this way.
  • Latency you see is the receiver's buffering, not the addon's. Audio measured transparent through Ableton Live against the Force's own headphone output.
  • Tested on MockbaMod, Force firmware 3.x, kernel 6.6.95, armv7l. Only one machine so far — reports very welcome.
  • GPLv2-or-later. Sources included. Links Ableton Link (© Ableton AG), used under its GPL branch.
