Can't keyboardmap some keys.

Post by raylaser » Tue Apr 13, 2010 4:49 pm

Hi,

I am unable to map some of the keys on my qwerty keyboard, also some keys on my midi controller (an old Evolution mk61 keyboard). It seems to be a bit random, some keys map normally and trigger clips, some look as though they are mapped but don't trigger clips in Live.

Any idea what's going on here? Any help much appreciated.

Ray.

Do you have the computer midi keyboard enabled (the little keyboard icon up the top right corner of the Live screen)?

80,

yep - AOK. Some of my keyboard keys map, some don't. Can't figure it out.

Exactly, so if you disable the computer midi keyboard, can you then map all your keys?

80,

I am with you - if I disable the icon, it sorts out the problem.

Many thanks.

Ray.
