Activating midi mode on your traktor kontrol device.

Ableton midi controller setup.

I am using a behringer fcb 1010 and even with the midi script and an editor i can t get the thing to work much. Nick at ableton sent me the link to your page. Very useful and i located a midi script that shows up in ableton for my controller. A midi controller is a midi enabled hardware device capable of transmitting midi note or cc data with any of the following tactile parameters.

Ableton s built in midi mapping engine allows you to select what each button knob pad on your midi controller keyboard will control inside ableton when you press turn tap it allowing you to take any controller or keyboard which sends midi data connect it to ableton and create a set of custom controls specific to your own unique workflow requirements. Go to the options tab click preferences then click the link midi tab on the left. Locate your midi device in the input section and turn the track button to on to enable it. Press a key pad to confirm you re getting midi signal.

Follow the same procedure for your midi keyboard output listed. For instance you could use a midi controller to play notes in midi instruments or to adjust the filter cutoff frequency in a device.
