launchpad user 2 mode

[bellay]

Hi!

Maybe it's obvious, but I just can't figure out how, or is it possible, to use user mode 2 for playing instruments. When I switch to user mode 1 the midi channel automaticaly receives message and I can play drum racks. User mode 2- nothing is happening? although ableton is receiving midi messages
Thanks!

User 2 is for max4live i believe, not sure what it really does without it...

aha..I see, guess it's not possible then..thanks

its not just for max for live

its basically open for mapping anything you want, turning on effects, or you can use a whole row to control a knob. check out novations website, they have videos on all the modes. user 1 is for playing notes on an instrument.

yes, I managed to use user 2 for controlling parameters of devices, turning knobs etc..., but cant get it to send notes to synths or samplers/drum rack so I can play it as with keyboard. User 1 mode is doing this without problem

Looked it up... notes = user 1 ccs= user 2... I can access user 1 with m4l but it's all screwed up....
