Hi,

I have a problem with Simpler/Sampler:
Live 8 is rewired to Logic 8 and Logic triggers a fast sequence of MIDI notes for a snare drum sound in Live, coming from a Simpler device (or Sampler, it doesn't matter).

As the notes are overlapping, new notes start before previous notes have finished ...

Important addition:

Thanks, penningt, for your reply. I think I did what you suggest, but let me explain it in case there is a misunderstanding.

Having set the keys' MIDI channel to 1 and all the CCs sending on channel 2 on the controller I set up a MIDI track in Live containing an instance of Simpler. At first "MIDI ...

Hi there,

I want to change the MIDI channel for Instant Mappings in Live but it doesn't work.

I have an M-Audio Keystation Pro 88 keyboard/MIDI controller and Live 6.0.9, running on a MacBook. Note on/off signals should be sent on channel 1 and CC signals on channel 2.
