Reply to MPD24 Reaktor - ableton - massive maps

Yo yo - i really struggle to get the hang of the MPD24 had it since xmas but cant seem to work out how to map it and save the mapping for each plug in?

Also how in ableton can you record real time automation/live performance to audio? I basically want to play with reaktors cols with the MPD24 while recording it to a new audio track, but i assume you have to arm the audio track so my midi mapping wont work!

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers tech dudes!
