Ableton Forum

Anyone know how to map a key-press to record a track in Mobius? The only way I know how to control Vst device parameters is to unfold the Vst Device Parameters (Arrow on Device Title bar)and key-map in Ableton.

The problem is that Mobius only exposes (8) device parameters, and of course the ones I'm interested in (like Record, Reset, Play) are not exposed. I don't have a pedal, I'm trying to do this with keypresses (I have a dedicated old computer keyboard that I use as a footswitch). I'm sure many of the Mobius users are doing this or doing it from a FCB1010.

Wow, I actually figured this out myself.

Turns out that in Mobius, you can set the Plugin Parameters. Now when you "arrow down", the new device parameters are exposed

Still have problem; Hitting the mapped keyboard key does not work the same way as mouse-clicking the Record (in MobiusVst).

The Record device parameter (in MobiusVst) has a setting for Sustain which allow the keyboard click to act like the mouse click. Ok, so Record now works, But for other parameters, you have to click the button twice, which could be pretty confusing during a live situation. Do people use a script or something to achieve this?
