CC Control improvements

Post by humpo72 » Mon Mar 02, 2026 2:20 pm

Hi, I have an external instrument set up in a rack with 11 instances of CC control which are mapped to the controllable functions of my external synthesiser. I have renamed these CC control instances with names such as Filter 1, OSC 1 etc & when folded, it all looks very neat in the rack and easy to find stuff when automating and works great.

the problems arise when I look away from the screen & at Push 3 where all 11 instance of CC control are still named as such and have not adopted the names I assigned them in Live. holding down the associated button on push 3, I get the option to move the item & its named as per the ones I assigned, just not the header for that instance.

Also, I think it would be nice if you could select the control type be it a rotary dial or button. of the 16 controls available in each instance, 1-4 are hard coded to Mod wheel, Pitch bend, Pressure & a button. I'm sure I could have got away with less than 11 if controls 1-4 were not redundant in 10/11 of the instances :)
