Trigger Finger Live 6 native support working?

There doesn't appear to be any template setup to work with Live, and Live does not have the dump button active for Trigger Finger.

I'm seeing either pads setup for impulse(p.10) pads for simpler (p.16) or controls for master and racks. but there does not seem to be a proper template with controls and instrument setup together.

Is the native support incomplete ant this time or am I doing something wrong

i think you need to use the GM percussion template for it to work with automap

yeah but then the pads are all screwed up, the other 3 faders have no purpose and there is no function for the aftertouch (controller function) of the pads.

Trigger finger is very powerful and is capable of some wonderful presets..... and since they said Native Live 6 automatic control, I thought they were actually going to make real templates to take advantage of the TF. But as it is now, you can't even play an instrument properly while using the knobs to control it.

I can reprogram the pad notes and controller siganals and remaining 3 of 4 sliders myself, but they said native support so I thought I was missing something.

Thanx.

native support = 1 fader for master

and 8 control knobs only

If you go through the lesson on remote controls, at the end is a map of exactly what's mapped. If you compare it to a Mackie or Axiom, the TF doesn't get much in terms of control. No banks of knobs (the others get up to 8 or 9 virtual banks of 8 knobs). However, if you look at the directory live\resources\MIDI remote scripts\_Tools, you'll see 2 .txt files describing how you can create your own mapping.

I'm trying to figure out how they use python to create the more complex scripts (for LCD desiplay, banks of kmnobs, etc), but don't hold your breathe. I'm no programmer, especially python.
