Creating midi control "Banks" internally within Live

Hi all,

I'm using an Oxygen 49 midi controller with Live 8 on Max OSX 10.6. Is there any software that exists that would allow me to program MIDI "banks" (or presets I've seen some people use". For example, say I have mapped all my faders 1-9 to the parameters of an equalizer. I now want to be able to push a button (or key) and make it switch to a new "bank" where I could use the same 1-9 faders for another plugin.

I know the Oxygen 49 has some kind of built in preset function, and I've been reading on it a while but I can't seem to program it to act in the way I wish. Plus, I'td be really cool if there was software that allows one to customize incoming data and be able to organize it into "banks".

Any advice would greatly be appreciated!!!

Cheers,

dl

my Xboard 61 also has this controlsoftware that allows setting the midiCC and/or midichannel of each encoder in the 16 available presets, this is simple but I don't know the Oxygen so I can't help you there.
There is also the option to arrange your VST's and instruments in a Rack and use the Chainselector (activate the chainselector filters miCC-option) to switch between VST's.

For all M-Audio midi controller users, there is a program called "Enigma" where you can map out the presets and upload it into the memory of your controller. Pretty useful for making banks.

@rdevries: The chainselector is super dope thanks for the tip! Definitely a tool I can use for this kind of midi mapping.

Best,

Tad

Hey guys just curious, I have an MPK 49, Im pretty sure I have this function available to me. For the knobs and faders on the right, can I program different banks using the A B C D Pad Banks that are on the left of the controller? Thaaanks
