Launchpad MIDI Sync issue.
Posted on: 26.10.2010 by Stephnie Bjorndal
hi all. ive run into a catch 22 sort of issue. it has to do with the User 1 mode.

In the MIDI sync preferences of Ableton, it would appear that when Remote is turned on, im able to use the User 1 view pads as normal for mapping effects and such. however, turning remote on presents this specific issue for me:

i use 4 pads in the D bank of my MPD to control track activation. the resulting notes used in the MPD correspond to notes of the LP. more specifically - i have a track whose activation is toggled by hitting a pad in D bank, the note for which is labeled "E5" in the MIDI mapping browser. when i hit the 6th Scene launcher on the LP in session view, it too will toggle that track's activation because its note is also "E5".

i can fix that entirely by turning remote off in preferences, but then im unable to make use of User 1 mode as i should.

anyone know a viable workaround for this, or is there something super simple that im missing? any help is much appreciated.

Try changing the Midi Channel on the MPD.

The issue is in no way that my LP freezes. In fact it works just as it should. The conflict lies in the manor in which I wish to use it. Hope I'm not confising you.

All i know is , playing live , if your launchpad happens to freeze up ... take it off the controls in midi set up and then select it again , it should work... the music should still be playing while you do this luckily
