make sure you've also activated the yellow squares below (i dont quite remember how these r called)

thats all set
is there anywhere i can turn off automap it really sucks
when i set it to No# 40 which is the automap for ableton nothing happens

make sure you're using port 1 in the controllers section in ableton prefs that did it for me. i can go into more detail.

Kiddo, that's bad attitude: err, ey, sucks, grumble, spit, buah...

I'm using a SL37 and automap works fine with Live. Automap works on Port 2 while all normal Midi operations work on channel 1. Be sure to install the latest driver from Novation's homepage, because it will update the firmware of the Remote SL (mine came with v1.x while 3.x is the most current one). Now stay calm and try getting it to work properly or give it back, because it's either broken or it's too complicated for you.

That's weird.

Automap works on Port 1 for Tone Deft as well as me.

I'm running Windows XP, maybe you're running OS X and it's different there? I read in some other thread about Live Automap being on port 2 and that's how it is for me here as well.

Nah, XP sp2 here as well.

All the manuals told me to use port 2, so I did, then it didn't work. Weird huh.

Are you using USB drivers coming with XP or did you install the Novation ones? I am using the Novation ones right now. Whatever, just try all ports and find the one that's working I'd say.

well i just can get template 40 ableton automap working and the funny thing about those slide as well, when i click on the slide in ableton and drag it up and down the number on the lcd screed goes up and down but when i move the slide on the sl61 nothing happens

wtf??

i cant get template 40

and this is the setting in the preferences looks like

control suface-remote sl input - port1 , output - port2

MIDI PORTS
input remote sl: TRACK SYNC REMOTE
port1 ON off ON
port2 off off off
port3 off off off

output remote sl: port1 ON off ON
port2 off off off
port3 off off off

the knob on the left sides seems to be working now im controlling the eq

its the slides thats stuffing around

i press ctrl+m, click on the master slide on ableton and move the slide on the 61sl nothing happens

control suface-remote sl input - port1 , output - port1

from what I understand, port 2 is for midi clock sync I/O, port 3 is for a device daisy chained to the SL.


nice post bot, that makes it clearer.

am i doing anything wrong?
