Anybody been able to setup a breath controller in Live?

I got Sample modelings The Trumpet for Kontakt and am trying to use it with the Yamaha BC3 breath controller together with the Breath controller box från Midi solutions in my sequencer Ableton Live.

I´ve got a hard time setting this up to work. At all times I get a message in the Kontakt plugin says "WARNING CC11 not received yet", no matter what I do. I play a piano note and that works fine, I hear the sound in Kontakt, but the breath controller doesn´t do anything.

As far as I can see there is midi going through the midi solutions box. I change the gain and offset on the BC3 to see if the problem is there, but nothing happens.

Please help

I don't own one or know but maybe you have to set up the midi for that on another midi track and send the midi to kontakt?

in "The Trumpet" you have to set the controls. i´m not at my music computer now. clicking on the control-buttons somewhere opens a pulldown menue. there are presets inside The Trumpet for the use of a breath controller (switch on "use breath controller"). don´t change it with the preset for windcontroller.
