Launch "next" or "prev" scenen + "play" w/ one midi button

Hey Peeps!

I`m new to Albeton - i have my fcb1010 setup and am absolutely loving it.

What i can`t seem to work out on my own is how to: "scene up" AND "launch that scene" with only 1 tap of my fcb1010.

I`m using Albeton in a song format. Generally only having Intro / Verse / Chorus / Outro

Currently i can start the song, move to verse, then chorus, no problem. But to get back to verse i need to have a dedicated switch to "scene up" then another to "launch scene"

Is it possible to have the "scene up" switch also enable "launch scene"? So essentially i want to go between verse and chorus with just a single hit of a switch - one for scene up, one for scene down...

I`ve been searching all day and haven`t been able to find a solution.

Thanks,
Trent.

You could just copy the Verse scene and place it after the Chorus scene too, no?

Hey - thanks man!

I could indeed do that - but i don`t want to be locked down to a set arrangment as far as how many verse`s / chorus`s there are going to be... I want to be able to jam / solo over whichever part for however long etc etc...

Gotcha. I don't know of a way to do this natively in Live, but perhaps one of our M4L experts will chime in if there's an option that way.

Thanks Tarekith ;-)

You can launch Scenes and much more using our Follow Scene MaxforLive device, it's main feature is to allow follow actions for scenes...

Cheers guys - i had a quick look at the isotonik device. Still not sure if it does what i actually need, but will dive in a have a deeper look when i can.

Another thought, it would be really handy to be able to hold down the button ( on midi controller ) and have next scene ready to launch, but not have it launch until pedal is let go of. As changing scenes in higher tempos can be a little tricky.

Anyways, it`s all new to me so working it out as i go.

Thanks for the help!
