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!
Hey, thanks for the reply!
I have set the Clip Stopped feedback for the Session Box to “None” but it seems like “None” still sends a velocity to the pads, turning the LED off/black/velocity 0. It is in fact, set to “None” and not “0”.
I even tried turning all of the Session Box LED feedback drop-down options to “None” just in case something else was causing the issue but I think I might be out of luck due to the nature of how the Session Box mapping LED feedback acts unless there is an additional listener or condition I could use as a workaround.
