Thanks. Now I get it.

For some reason that link is broken for me. Tried on two devices. Can someone verify it's working for them.

I can't find the version that displays chords. The one in the M4L Essentials pack shows a stave but only one note, the one in MIDI Devices is the old version with no stave.

I'm on v11 and all packs are up to date. Can you give us a screenshot of the new version showing a chord?

The first group in the browser window at the left of the screen. The one that says Collections and has coloured folders.

I'm pretty sure those files control the Collections. If you delete them things will disappear from your Collections.

Yes, the other themes work. I'm wondering why you would think people make them if they didn't work?

The m4l devices I listed can be keyboard mapped or midi mapped.
The things that we don't have access to are a weird collection. Anyway, they exposed more with v11 and my guess is that will continue.

I have a novation Launchkey and there are things you can't do with that either. Regardless of whether you use their script or write your own.

Specifically, you can't resize the Clip editor and you can't open and close specific vst windows. Among other things.

A combination of a few things. Max4Live devices, Selected Track Control, Shortcut Buddy, TekktrackControl and TrackController for most things. Stability is variable!! Focussing on using my midi controller and a custom script called Selected Track Control (just to be awkward). I've made a few changes...

I explained what I think their strategy is. No where do I say I don't want more options. "Ableton have a total WYSIWYG philosophy, keyboard shortcuts and heavy reliance on them goes against that, and it's like changing religion to them." Looks a lot like your saying it's totally mouse base...

There at least a hundred existing keyboard shortcuts, so no, you don't have to do "everything" with a mouse. There are a few things you can't do, but they tend to be things that require a selection of multiple objects? I agree that there are limitations in defining your own to replace exis...

I'd like the expansion option for all racks.

You can map them in the current beta, so it should show up soon.
There are a few max4live devices that let you fade from one to another. Can't give you specific names right now, I'm away from home. If no one else does in the meantime, I can post in a couple of days.

I have worked in support for almost 25 years now and I can tell you plain and simple, people are lazy and just want the direct answer where sometimes not knowing where you are going is the best way to find a place you have never been. If you are on the receiving end of the RTFM comment, from a dece...

Yep. All racks have the option. I guess they don't add one by default because it would clutter up the Chain list and isn't always needed.
