Voice control demo for Ableton Live using Realtime 2 API
A Reddit user shared an experiment using OpenAI's Realtime 2 API to control Ableton Live by voice without using hands. The author says they had tried to make an Ableton MCP work with voice chat for more than a year, but it only worked well after the Realtime 2 model launched. The project is open source, and the author asked whether others are trying similar voice control or Ableton Live MCP experiments.
