Error – Using BCR2000 Momentary button to scroll up/down tracks in Ableton L12.1

0

I’ve set up two momentary buttons to highlight track in ableton – the left decrements the right increments.

It works fine on audio/midi tracks.

the problem is that when the highlighted track reaches the end of the tracks, the next press brings it to the returns. This is what i want. however, the buttons then don’t work to scroll the return tracks.

The decrement button has no effect, the increment button then moves the focus all the way back to track 2.

Let’s say i’m on the highest audio/midi track (let’s say track 10)

What i want to happen is:

  1. press increment button, focus moves to Return A
  2. press increment button again -> focus moves to Return B (ten c, then d etc.)
  3. press decrement button -> focus moves back up the returns incrementally, then From A back to track 10 etc.

what currently happens is (as described in prose above):

  1. press increment button, focus moves to Return A
  2. press decrement button – nothing happens
  3. Press increment again, focus moves to audio track 2 (not return B)

This feels like a bug. can anyone help?

Help appreciated! i have a live show on sunday! thank you!

EDIT: additional issue discovered: if a group track is closed i can’t move past it until i open it using the mouse. I’d like for the group track to be skipped if is is closed.
