Ableton Forum

I think it would be great to have some knobs you could assign to your synths CC controllable parameters. Pretty much the same as the macro knobs on racks. Perhaps even for external effects. Maybe even just a ableton plugin that you could drop on any track and send CCs.

yay!

+ for MIDI feedback on everything

Try this for now

Just create an empty rack then open a control surface(midi prefs)
and set its's output port to the physical output to your synth then
right click the macro's and lock to that surface.Now when you tweek
a macro with the mouse predefined midi cc's are sent out from the
chosen port, just set your hardware to respond to these.You can do
the same with midi cc map just set the out port to your hardware.
I admit this workaround has some serious limits for instance if you
want to use a midi controller you need a midi yoke and som less
than practical routing

So

Thats a really interesting way of doing it. I wouldn't have ever thought of that.
