Legacy Version
Hey there,
I made some MPK Mini Presets + a Control Surface script.
Even without the control-surface script, the MPK's Pads map to the first 16 Pads of all Ableton Kits (if you wanna use all of them and map the knobs automatically, you should also use the control surface script).
Detailed instructions are included in the zip-file

Useful Hints
This may no longer be valid with mothergarages version of the script (please confirm)vanil2 wrote:Just a reminder to all MPK users, if you use the editor while your DAW is open, no changes will be effective, you have to use the editor first, load you work in the mpk, and then only open your DAW
WindowsAs of right now (Live 8 ) Impulse does not auto-map to the pads. This is lives fault, in fact it doesnt map with any scripts.
The workaround for the MPK and this particular mapping is to drop a "MIDI-Pitch-Effect" in front of Impulse and set it to +24 Semi-Tones.

You have to put the MPK Mini Folder in your Users\<Your Username>\App Data\Roaming\Ableton\<Live Version>\Preferences\User Remote Scripts.
If you place it within the Ableton Folder in your Program files folder, it will still show up in the Control Surfaces drop down but will not work whatsoever. If it is placed into the Preferences folder everything works perfectly but in the Control Surfaces drop down it will now appear at the bottom of the list.
Apparently Apple decided to hide the Library Folder from the User. To get into it, press SHIFT+CMD+G (in Finder) and append Library so the path will look like /Users/<yourUserName>/LIbrary
