483 MIDI and Key Remote Control
Once your remote control setup has been defined in the MIDI/Sync Preferences, giving MIDI
controllers and notes remote control assignments is simple:
1. Enter MIDI Map Mode by pressing the MIDI switch in Live’s upper right-hand corner.
Notice that assignable elements of the interface become highlighted in blue, and that the
Mapping Browser becomes available. If your browser is closed, [CTRL][ALT][B](PC) /
[CMD][ALT][B](Mac) will open it for you.
2. Click on the Live parameter that you’d like to control via MIDI.
3. Send a MIDI message by pressing a keyboard key, turning a knob, etc., on your MIDI
controller. You will see that this new MIDI mapping is now listed in the Mapping Browser.
4. Exit MIDI Map Mode by pressing the MIDI switch once again. The Mapping Browser will
disappear, but you can always review your mappings by entering MIDI Map Mode again.
26.2.2 Mapping to MIDI Notes
MIDI notes send simple Note On and Note Off messages to Live’s interface elements. These
messages can produce the following effects on controls in Live:
•Session View Slots — Note On and Note Off messages affect clips in the slot according to
their Launch Mode settings (page 162).
•Switches — A Note On message toggles the switch’s state.
•Radio Buttons — Note On messages toggle through the available options.
•Variable Parameters — When assigned to a single note, Note On messages toggle the pa-
rameter between its Min and Max values. When assigned to a range of notes, each note is
assigned a discrete value, equally spaced over the parameter’s range of values.
Hint: Session View slots can be assigned to a MIDI note range for chromatic playing: First play
the root key (this is the key that will play the clip at its default transposition), and then, while
holding down the root key, hold one key below the root and one above it to define the limits of
the range.
