Roland System-1 not working as a vst midi controller

[8bit]

Hi,

I've trying to use my system-1 as a midi controller for VST's in ableton. I can see that midi is coming into Ableton but for some reason its not allowing me to map to vst paramaters using Ableton's configure in a VST. It's controlling Rolands plugout vst no problem so i'm really puzzled!

Any tips?

Thanks
Tim

Figured out the System-1 will map to volume controls and any other ableton controls but it doesn't work with the vst configure option which is usually how i do all my mapping.

Im also trying to record automation for VST (system-1 VST) from System-1 synth (i.e. use system-1 as dedicated midi controller) but failing to record knob movement in to arrangement view. Otherwise everything works just fine.

What I am missing?
