ableton life forces roli lightpad into ableton-mode

Post by barnybe » Sun Oct 23, 2022 3:06 pm

Hi, whenever I connect the roli lightpad (7ZKB; SW1.1.0) to ableton it will be recognized by ableton live lite 11 and as a consequence it will be set/forced into some strange ableton-mode. This way it´s not possible to send Midi-CC´s to control VST plugin´s-parameter with midi-mapping...
How can I use the lightpad block with it´s built in Apps (fader, x-y controls) without being switched back to some strange ableton mode?
When I push the mode-button on the side of the lightpad my desired app appears shortly on the lightpad-LEDs but instantly will be changed automaticly back to ableton mode. Using MidiMonitor1.0.6 doesnt show any messages towards the lightpad...

Any help is highly appreciated,
Barny

update: just learned, that it isn´t ableton which forces the lightpad block into some other mode, but Roli Studioplayer who is doing that. Solution: switching off "hardware control" in the top-line of the studioplayer window.
