MPK25 / Live 9 - record button to trigger the session rec?

Post by boabmatic » Tue Mar 19, 2013 9:48 am

Hi All,

I mainly record midi parts in the session view so like the new session record button in Live 9.

The record button on the MPK25 triggers the arrangement record but want it to trigger the new session record.
I have been manually MIDI mapping it within Live but does anybody have the details to change the MPK25 map script to do this automatically?

Thanks....

I have an Akai MPK Mini and I`ve been trying to map both Session Record Button and New Scene to one of the pads sending CC.

I enter Midi mapping (Cmd+M) and click the Session Record then push my pad.

To test it, I arm a track and push the mapped pad. It starts recording as expected, when I finish the loop, I can push the record pad again and it starts looping.

The problem I have is that I can't push it again to overdub. It seems to expect a Toggle button instead of a momentary one. If I hold the pad, it records but I would really like it to be toggled.

Is this some king of bug? Can I map this using the user remote scripts file? Help me.
