Midi volume control of the Pro2?

Midi volume control of the Pro2?
« on: January 20, 2025, 12:38:03 PM »
Hi all,

 I was wondering how to get Midi volume control of the Pro2? I'm working with Ableton Live which can automate any CC it receives but the Pro2's Volume knob doesn't transmit midi CC #7 so there's nothing for Ableton to "grab", and as far as I know you can't set Live to just send CC's (which seems silly).

 I'm hoping there's a simple work around?

Thank you! :)

Found a fix via the Ableton forum that I'll share here:

"If you are using Ableton 12 then go to Library -> Midi Effects -> CC Control

Set the midi cc from the drop down menu of one of the custom knobs. You can then map that to a hardware controller. You can also add CC Control to an instrument rack and map a couple of the knobs to a macro of the instrument rack and shift the min/max value for it within the macro map settings on the left so that you can control multiple cc control knobs with the instrument rack macro within the given min/max values that you choose.

If you don't use Ableton 12 then you'll have to download a max4live device and add that device to an instrument rack. There are plenty of midi cc m4l devices for download on the website."
