Guest dextro Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 I have a question regarding using Ableton Live, hopefully someone knows the answer to this. I have been using Ableton Live 3 for quite a while (only for live gigs, not for recording or production) and so far it's been great. Recently however, I have been trying to play bass along to the live set and I'm having a few control difficulties. I use about 40-50 loops in sequence and go through them using the down curser key and the enter button to play them (I can't use key shortcuts to do this because I simply run out of keys). However, in order to do this while playing bass I need to be able to scroll through the samples (using equivalent midi controls to the down curser key and enter key) by using a midi footswitch, however i'm not sure if this can be done. Is there any way of using midi control to go up and down on the ableton screen as well as the play/enter function?? I can't seem to find this midi facility. Any help would be appreciated.

Guest dextro Posted February 27, 2006 Report Share Posted February 27, 2006 Bingo, just found the answer, It's not perfect as it covers the whole master section , but , there are up and down midi buttons for the master track, just above the Master fader in the MIDI implementation mode. cool farts.
