Installation Steps
1. Install the Max for Live Device
Download Producer_Pal.amxd, the Producer Pal Max for Live device.
To install it, open User Library (under Places) in Live's browser, go to Presets → MIDI Effects → Max MIDI Effect, and drag Producer_Pal.amxd into that folder:

Drag it from the Max MIDI Effect folder onto a MIDI track:

It should display "Producer Pal Running" or something isn't working.
2. Set Up a Web Tunnel
Set up a web tunnel to expose your local Producer Pal server.
For example:
cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:3350will give you a public URL such as https://abc-xyz.trycloudflare.com:

3. Configure Claude Web App
Add a custom connector with your tunnel URL +
/mcp(e.g.
https://abc-xyz.trycloudflare.com/mcp):
4. Verify Installation
You should see Producer Pal tools in Claude's "Connectors" menu (make sure it's enabled when starting a conversation):

5. Start Using Producer Pal
- Start a conversation with "connect to ableton"
- Allow Producer Pal tools to be used when Claude tries to use them:
