Description
Manual CC Mapper allows you to map CCs without having to use the Ableton Live in-built MIDI mapping functionality. Mapping CCs in this way offers a number of advantages over using Ableton MIDI mapping:
- Record CC value changes into an arrangement view or session view clip without having to use Abletons Automation Arm.
- Use multiple CC Mappers for different MIDI mapping configurations easily switched on/off. Different CC mappings for different tracks.
- Automate CCs mapped, min/max range values.
- Write your own notes for organization, see several CC values visually in one place.

But there is still some issues for me, and the biggest is that it doesn't accept incremental CC signal (from an incremental encoder, where turning right adds CC whil turning left subtract).
If I try to use it with my midi controller sending incremental CC, it doesn't understand it and behave stupidly...
I remember too that I had some problems while loading a previously saved Live session, but I didn't remember the exact issue... Maybe it didn't record the original value of the mapped parameter, I need to test it again for be sure...
Anyway, great idea. If you could make it compatible with incremental it could be a killer device, and make Ableton Live as flexible on stage as Reaktor (the main interest in Reaktor is that the mapping is "per instrument" : the CC signal used for a parameter keeps being free for another use in the set, like with your device).
It says in the description it can record CC value changes into arrangement view, but I can only get it to record into the clips themselves.
How can you make it record automation into arrangement view?
Thanks
I've scoured the whole web to try to find a way to save a whole instrument idea (that's mapped to a midi controller ) and preserve midi mappings when I open a new project and drag the instrument in.
Your M4L device is the only thing that works - but only when saved in a rack - I can make do - but now I'm just missing a mapper that saves midi notes.
