MIDI to keystroke?

Post by vexx » 27 Jun 2012 06:54

Is it possible to map a midi control change to a key combo? I.e., say I wanted to have a button that inserted a new audio channel in ableton (CTRL+T), or saved the open document.

Hi
Check Chapter 13.8 Scripting Output functions.

Something like keycomboout(0,1,0,0,'T') maybe should work as a script for a button.
And if you want MIDI to trigger it that could be done as well I guess . . .

Might have to check out that keycomboout, sounds cool.

Can you set-up macros in Ableton? In Cubase that would be the easiest method, set your macro and assign it to a cc number
