Hi

is there a way of turning midi CC from a controller into midi note messages?

I have an AKAI LPD8

I has buttons
PAD - which is note data
CC - controller data
program change - program change

what i don't like about the controller is that it take 3 button presses to change between banks.

could i set up the controller so
When i switched from 'note' to 'CC' and sent 'controller info' from the pads it was converted into NOTE data?

thus i could switch between 'first 8' 'second 8' pads using the 'PAD(note)' and 'CC' buttons

It would need a bit of software or hardware between the unit and the input in Ableton.

Is this possible to do? it sounds probable
