Uhm Per, Sorry, but you're wrong. Try switching Midi-map learn mode on and off (Ctrl-M on the keyboard) and look on the screen specificly at each channel (and Master) where the "Sends" box is. Notice how a new extrabox pops up and dissapears when turning midi-learn on and off? Notice on the Master channel how that new box contains a play button and 2 up and down arrows and a square with a number? There's your MIDI-mappable "Scroll up/down" and "play all", or on each channel "Play selected clip". Now go ahead and map that to your FCB and enjoy Live even more! ;) /Tias ----- Original Message ----- From: "Per Boysen" <boye@chello.se> To: <Loopers-Delight@loopers-delight.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 3:06 PM Subject: Re: midi foot controller for loop triggers manipulation et al > Hi Tias, > > In Live there is no way to "trig selected clip" from external midi. > However this can be done with the computer keyboard by using the arrow > keys and the return key.
