How to display Ableton track colors on MIDI controller pads?
Hi,
Great to see 2.6 out of beta, thanks for keeping up the development!
Now with the new reactions working, is it possible to send the color of the track in Ableton to a controller RGB pad? I mean, pick up the color from Ableton, not write down manually a matching velocity value.
What I want to do is lay out all the tracks on my controller pads with their colors and then hit the pad to select the track. It is MUCH easier to select the right track when I can see the color. Counting tracks to find the right one from a bunch of identically colored ones is not really useful.
If it is possible now, I’d really appreciate some direction on how to do it… I’ve tried finding the functionality myself, but failed :-/
Cheers!
I’m looking for some help if possible. I’ve been trying to make a Reaction for sending the track color to Pad 1 on my Launchpad Mini Mk3 whenever a clip exists and also remove the color from Pad 1 when the clip is deleted.
The problem is that the LED Feedback from the “Session Box” mapping is overriding my Reaction’s pad color assignment. My Reaction works fine without a “Session Box” mapping but I need it to coexist with a Session Box mapping for clip launching.
The LED Feedback settings in the Session Box have been turned OFF for “Clip Stopped” but it seems to still be breaking my Reaction regardless.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
