Ableton Forum

hi, how are you?

I need a little help. I bought addictive keys and I'm trying to automate sustain pedal on ableton live. (on and off)
I can't seem to find the automation parameter? for the sustain pedal.
I don't have any connected midi keyboard. I tried recording by clicking on the pedal with my mouse...no success.

Or is there any pedal plugin for ableton live?

thanks in advance,

I am unable to automate the sustain pedal from Addictive keys as well. It doesn't show up as an automation option, this is pretty limiting at the moment and would love some feedback here.

I don't know If I will be helping many people as this is a very old thread, but to automate the sustain pedal:

1. Double-click the Addictive Keys midi clip.
2. Click the Envelopes button over the MIDI view.
3. Click the drop-down menu on the bottom left of the MIDI view (It should initially say "Mixer") and change it to "MIDI Ctrl".
4. Now click the drop-down menu to the right of the last one and change that one to "64: Sustain Pedal"
5. Click anywhere inside the MIDI view to automate.

I hope this helps someone!
