Ableton Forum

I'm not sure if anyone has asked for or mentioned this but; You know what would be awesome. If you could select multiple controls to automate with one midi control device.
I wish you could in Midi mode (shift-click) multiple items to control with one knob on my Oxygen8 or Fcb1010. Example;
Let's say I have 3 vocal track loops on three different tracks. I also want to send all 3 vocals loop tracks to the same effects plugin on 1 send track. I wish I could in midi mode just shift-click on the 3 vocal loop track's send knob and assign all 3 send knobs to one knob on my Oxygen8 or expression pedal on my FCB1010.
I hope that makes sense. I can't imagine that this feature would be that hard to implement. So what do you say Ableton, a simple but yet effective new feature? This way we could all save on control surface resources. WHO'S WITH ME NOW?

word. it seems like now there is a built-in feature that prohibits assigning the same midi command to two live features. I see this as useful at times--to make sure that you don't accidentally assign the same command to two things--BUT I fully agree with the one midi command controlling multiple things in Live. Maybe there could be a one-to-one lock like the current one that you could "unlock" to have mulitple live features-to-one midi command. That way, those who want it could unlock it, while others could have the current safety feature built in.

I can do it with my DM2.
It lets me set multiple params per button or knob. so.. i switch it to 1, assign it in live, switch it to 2 assign it in live, and so on... then i just go back and assign the knob to 1 and 2 at the same time.

and poof... now when i turn that cheap plastic mattel(tm) made "scratch" wheel i can change as many paramaters in live as i want at the same time.
