Guys,

This could be a daft question but is there anyway to assign note on messages within midi mapping mode without a controller?
E.g if I wanted to assign c3 to launch a clip but I have no keyboard.

Key assignment is not an alternative to what I'm trying to do.

Cheers

you could draw the C3 note into a midi clip, route the midi out to a 3rd party app like bomes (or use the IAC bus of you're on mac), then receive it back into live, then midi-map it.

Thanks gary,

This is pretty much what I'm trying to do using the iac driver but how do you go about mapping a midi note from a clip? Could I for instance assign a note value c3 to launch another audio clip (again no controller being present).

Thanks for the advice.
