Any way to include MIDI Mappings when drag+drop a liveset ?

Post by chapelier fou » Wed Mar 28, 2018 8:31 am

Apologies for asking such a newbie question after 12 years using Ableton Live.
I'm starting to re-think some of my personal paradigms and this is one of the things that might be a big deal for my potential future workflow.
I couldn't find any command to add to the options.txt, am i missing something ? This would save me so much time. Thanks !

Don't think so, what are you trying to do?

ClyphX has an option to set up Actions via a txt. file that can respond to MIDI.... Might be the ticket?

Cheers

Nope, i’m trying to build a template (some bus tracks with effects and sends with their midi mappings) in order to add this to all my ‘old’ livesets.

Yeah, I need this too. My projects are heavily midi-mapped. I also make big use of sends. It sucks that I lose both of these things when I try and save things to my library.

Here's a simple example:

I have two tracks used just for monitoring my guitar. They use the external audio effects, and even though they aren't in the export path, Live wants to do a realtime export when they're in the project. To get around that, I delete them, export, then undelete them. I'd love to just be able to drag them back in from the user library, but they will no longer have their midi mapping applied.
