Description
This is useful for using Abelton for live looping. I have been doing this stuff with Bome midi translator before - But this is much neater.
Only tested using quantise of 1 bar.
Now improved so hopefully it actually works in practice (have tested a few times and so far so good) - You need to send a 127 Cntl value to arm the device and fire the clip (not an on/off message). Also I think you may have to zero both these toggle switches to ensure it works properly.
Define the clip and track number by midi; set the desired number of bars - by midi.
Arm the device. Mappable
Fire the clip. Mappable
Will automatically arm the track and unarm when clip is recorded.
May be some teething issues - Do let me know if you have some improvements.

It does seem to be pretty erratic - takes several triggers to get it to work. Any ideas how to modify - so it just takes one trigger to arm the device.
