Mpd-24 + Ableton Live Question

Good [+1]Toggle ReplyLink» rawali replied on Mon Aug 31, 2009 @ 5:36pm


Coolness: 140825	is there a way to save multiple midi mapping schemes in live, and load a new one without ever cutting the audio... Here is my situation (perhaps I'm doing something dumb and overlooking something extremely obvious?) I use live with an mpd-24 with a drummer and signer... I cut my tunes up by scene (intro, drop, bridge... etc) and group the instruments (bass, synth, drums). I use the controller to go from scene to scene and use the rest of the shit as volume of effect control... All the tunes should be in the same project since I dont want the music to stop between tunes obviously... Now... this is all working nice but I've only got 4 pages worth of pads (so 4 scenes per page x 4 pages comes to 16)... considering I'm using about 6 or 7 scenes per tune... I need to find a way to change the mappings once I reach scene 16... erm? how?

	I'm feeling lovely right now..

Coolness: 103475	now that is a good question. not that i know of,best i can say is either have some atmopsheric sounds ready in itunes to play and when u hit 16 scenes,u play itunes and opeup a new project with the rest of the set and new midi mapping you could also buy another midi controller?

Coolness: 685730	..get the new MPC-thingy that's ableton-specific? If I'm undrtstanding what you want to do, that should work just fine..

Coolness: 685730	maybe there's something in Live8 that you can assign how that MPC works.. It's got like, 8x8 pads for the clips, bit it's also got an up/down/left/right arrow, so you can move the 8x8 area that the pads controll using that.. maybe there's a way to define the size/area that you can shift over and apply it to a midi/keyboard shortcut?

Coolness: 685730	yeah, and like I said, I doubt it's a controller-only feature, it's got to be incorporated in MIDI/Ableton8 somehow..

Coolness: 91530	Use your MPD's banks. You have 4 pages per banks and 16 banks in total. You'll have to assign different notes to all those banks but it will work.

	I'm feeling je me souviens plus right now..
