apc40 track selection problem

Post by bizzyfingers » Sun Aug 29, 2010 6:21 pm

what id like to do is adjust parameters while activating other clips too. my problem is when i activate another clip my track selection changes to that session. frustrating when ive just turned a knob and cannot turn it back.

is there any chance i could make it stay put?

may i ask one more question please? you may have the answer. how do i set my parameter max/min on the apc? i have a beat repeat running but the "sweet spot" is really small, id like to adjust without having to look if i have over done it. thank you again.

I don't think u can with another way except "hard mapping". Or Maybe with an editor...?

If you map it to a macro you can limit the macro min/max and then your full 0-127 sweep would be based on that min/max..

If you're just using device controls directly ON a beatrepeat and banking thru you wouldn't be able to limit without hard mapping.

this seems like a missed feature on LIVE. you should be able to set these things on the device. it would be so much easier.
