Prevent reading Pedal data (64)

Post by 8E » Sun Jul 15, 2018 6:30 pm

I have a group of instruments, one of them is Piano. I want to keep the Pedal info for piano, but not for other instruments (it sounds like clusters in a while).

Is there any way to prevent a particular instrument from reading the MIDI CC Pedal data (64)?

I run into a similar issue but AFAIK the only solution I've found is to manually delete the pedal automation data in the envelopes section, one by one. Tedious and annoying but I don't think there's another way. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong!

The problem I have is that I use a rack of instruments. One instrument should read the data another should not.
There are to many instruments and combinations to split them up, particularly when editing midi clips.

There is no built-in CC filtering mechanism in Live.

If you have M4L, you can use CC Filter, CC Mapper, CC Param Control Bank, etc.

M4L devices are the easiest, but without M4L you can try using another MIDI Track as a "filter" of sorts, by routing the MIDI through another MIDI Track that has a "Dummy Clip" playing looping, with the MIDI CC set to 0 in that Clip.

Map it to something useless.
