I've fixed the midi mapping problem by removing the midi cable going out from my PC to FCB1010. It appears that was the thing confusing midi messages between Live and the FCB.
However after recording on the fly as according to your tutorial, i now have a problem where the various tracks don't sync up. the previous tracks begin to lag behind newly recorded tracks. Would anyone be able to advise what settings I should configure for this?

hi, i'm very new to the world of midi and live looping, and am having a monster of a headache with a problem in my midi mapping.
Basically i'm using the FCB to trigger off recordings on the fly with Live. I managed to get Live to recognise the FCB1010 and have set pedal 1 (bank 00) to trigger the Track Launch button with pedal 2 stopping the track.
So i begin recording my 1st loop into track '2' by stepping on pedal 1. After recording one bar, i stepped on pedal 1 again to trigger the freshly recorded loop to begin playback. However that's when the problem begins as my FCB starts sending a message to Live to set pedal 1 to launch playback of the clip I just recorded.
Live sends me a prompt that reads "The selected controller conflicts with the previous mapping to '2'|track Launch. Do you want to replace the previous mapping?". If I click yes, pedal 1 is set to launch playback of the clip I just recorded instead of remaining as the trigger for "Track Launch".
Can anyone advise me how to stop the FCB from sending out this erroneous message to Live? getting pretty frustrated here.....
tnx,
Wendy
