cheers

something like Traktor Beatmasher & channel delay
never used traktor, but this may be something to look at (though you need reaktor):

Beatmasher by a different name
The Beat Repeat effect in ableton is virtually indentical in function to the Beatmasher in Traktor 3!
The controls are a little different, so you'll need to do some experimenting, but this should get you started:
Drag Beat Repeat onto your audio track. Set Chance to 0% and change the mode from "Mix" to "Ins". Toggling the "Repeat" button in BR will perform the same as pressing the "Action" button in BM. Setting BR's Grid knob is the same as adjusting BM's Length knob.
The Gate knob does NOT work identically! If you wish to emulate that, you'll need to adjust both BR's Interval and Gate knobs simultaneously, set your Chance back to 100%, and toggle the Device Activator (power button on top-left of effect) to act like Traktor's Action button.
If you have any midi controllers that allow you to assign CC's to buttons, (e.g. my Trigger Finger) I'd suggest using that feature and midi-mapping that to the Repeat button or Device Activator so you can activate the effect with one button press instead of having to "tap on" and "tap off".
Hope that works for you!

Trigger Finger + Grid
Rat --
You sure can. You'll probably want to set up your own preset with Enigma if you haven't already -- by default most of the presets for the Trigger finger don't send any aftertouch data! The ones that DO send the same controller for all the pads; which is often undesirable.
For a quick and dirty way of getting it running; hit Memory Recall on your trigger finger and then whack pad# P10. Press the Control/Note Mute button until your trigger finger shows "not" on its display. In ableton, midi-learn the grid knob to your pad. Exit midi-learn mode. Press the Control/Note Mute button on your trigger finger again so its red LED turns off.
Voila! The grid amount should change depending how hard you lean on your pad!
In lesson two, we'll cover using the Enigma software to better optimize the messages that your pads send.
