Hi everyone,

Thanks for having me.

I recently bought a 2nd hand Novation Zero SL MKII.

The associated “Automap” software doesn’t seem to work anymore, or at least, not on my computer, so I bought CSS to make my own remote script.

I watched most of the tutorial series, and I managed to make some basics navigation script, navigating through tracks, selected track’s devices, and so on
So far so good.

I’d like to take it much further and to really make my controller react to Ableton and vice versa, I assume that’s what “reaction” is ?

My idea would be to light up as much as LED on my controller as there are tracks on my session and delete a track would turn off the corresponding LED.
And also to have the name of the tracks written on the Display of my Controller.

I know it’s a lot but I can learn and I’m very persistent.

Thanks a lot !

I don’t own the device, so I can’t give a reasonable answer. You could always try to send a Raw MIDI message to the controller and see if it does something. Automap might just be one way of sending SysEx to the controller while other software could do the same? (I’m guessing here)

Contacting Novation might be a good start. Others might’ve documented their experiences on other forums, seeing as this is a legacy product. Here’s a thread on automap templates, don’t know if it will help but sometimes threads like these can contain a clue of where to look next.
