MIDI PC is not good with Live, you should use simple MIDI notes instead for launching scenes. To launch a scene in Live you learn the MIDI Note (a CC might work too) to the corresponding slot on the master output's column in the Session View. You can even use a MIDI Note that are part of what your controller is sending to your guitar rack when calling up a song, letting that event trigger both the guitar rack stuff and launching the scene in Live. And note that there are two options for controlling scens in Live; you may launch a scene directly or you may select the scene (to be launched by the next command). Oh, there is actually a third way (that I used myself with Live for a concert once) and that is to learn the MIDI note event to an empty scene preceding the actual scen that will start the song. This approach also needs that you assign Live's "trigger next" button to a pedal. At the gig I had this assigned both to a foot switch and a hand mixer knob.
