Hey folks
Okay, I realize that this wreaks of supreme laziness but I'm no musician so...
Is it possible in Live 8 to use one (or more) of the MIDI plug-ins/FX to force Live to stay within a certain scale *as one plays on a MIDI keyboard*? For instance, if I decide that I want to write a melody within the C min 7 scale, can I somehow force Live to keep the notes that I play on the keyboard within that scale even if I hit a 'wrong' note on the keyboard?
Thank you!

The Scale effect chapelier fou mentions is built in to Live and will do exactly what you describe.

Thank you all very much for the quick, helpful, and non-judgmental replies
The Covert Operators Live pack is EXACTLY what I'm after. It's awesome - so thankful to have found it.
Cheers.
