MIDI map according to currently selected Ableton track ?????

Post by misfit » Thu Aug 07, 2014 12:06 pm

Is it possible to make a MIDI mapping of a corresponding hardware MIDI controller knob to a certain Ableton software control/VST control according to which track or device is selected?
I mean, presently, if i map a MIDI controller's knob to some VST parameter or Instrument Rack Macro - so whatever device/track/window/View is selected your mapped hardware MIDI knob will ALWAYS control this certain software parameter, but what if i want to control the VST parameter or Instrument Rack parameter if only this certain track/device with this VST or Instrument rack is selected ??? This functionality is present in FLStudio, but haven't figured out how to make it in Ableton ???

Look into User Configuration Scripts... It's possible but you're at the start of a long journey...
