This is simply FANTASTIC, Tobi. Yes, someday I would love to know how to program the FCB1010 internally, not to mention learn how to make my own Max devices at some point, that must be pretty cool :) ... but that's a ways down the line, haha, and for now I am just SO thankful that you created this. You saved me *so* much time and frustration! I'm psyched to all of a sudden have this incredibly useful foot pedal be a part of my rig just like that! Glad I found you! 🙏

Excellent! Making a complicated pedal easy to use.. I use one all the time for live looping, I've programmed mine for mapping, I hear there's also a firmware flash for older pedals, and even a chip swap, tho I didn't need that. Flexiblity and routing can easily get confusing, your M4L plugin is by far the easiest way to map, good work!

Hey Annie - this device can be used in conjunction with my Live Looper which has the advantage of not 'being tied' to single clip slots but being able to record into multiple clips (up to 10 per looper) with the same button/stomp. (You will find more info on the looper here: kzitem.info/news/bejne/14WGrpebenx2o5w ) - IF you want to map to single slots it would be possible to set up the FCB1010 device to send out MIDI notes via IAC routing (=its a virtual MIDI cable technique for MAC) and send those MIDI notes back in via a "In" - "Remote" to use the native MIDI MAP function in Ableton Live. Does this help?

Tobi I love this plug-in! But, is there a way to get the expression pedal that I have set to trigger the Master Volume to stop at 0db instead of going all the way to 6db?
@abletondrummer

Hey - I see 2 options for that: Use the native MIDI MAP and set the MAX value for this MAPing to "0". OR you could use the GAIN Audio effect on the Master track - group it/create an Audio Effect Rack where this is nested in - macro map the gain to a macro and set the max value of this to "0". Now you can MAP from the FCB1010 M4L plugin to that macro. Cheers

Hey there are many ways how this could be archived , my Max for Live plugin makes it possible that the FCB1010 ‚can talk‘ to Ableton Live out of the box. E.g. you could have different effects on one track and just mapped the On/Off button of each effect to a stomp via the „Map To“ function

It also recogizes simple changes with the MAP-PARAM selected (if I change the track volume, that parameter is noted in the MAP-PARAM field). HOWEVER, I want to be able to trigger a clip.

@@abletondrummer I'm using two separate tracks, one for keys and one for sax. I had the clips for each on the same scenes (I wasn't needing to fire a whole scene for this particular setup). If I fire scene 3 for example, it's going to select a keys patch AND a sax patch, even though I just need to select a differrent patch for my sax. What I did was, move all my sax triggering clips on lower scenes that don't have clips for the keys. That does in fact allow me to trigger the sax effects clip only by way of the Scene Fire option. An FYI for other folks looking for similar functionality.

I'm experiencing a weird bug that only seems to apply to the "Note to MAP - two values" device. If I open the project, and press the correct button on my FCB1010, nothing happens and the signal stays dry. The second time I press it, the desired effect works. I don't have to press the button twice to trigger the changes from that point onward as long as I don't close the project. Why do I have to press the button twice to trigger the change when I first open my project?
@abletondrummer

Hey - this is not a bug but intended behaviour. You are toggling between two values regardless of the state of the MAPed parameter. e.g. IF MAPed to a track activator button and sending "0"+"127" (On/Off) : IF the button is already "Off" and you send it a "0" it will stay off. Are you aware of my "FCB1010 Foot Control" plugin and the "MAP To" function on there? This will observe the MAPed parameter and trigger the opposite value. blog.abletondrummer.com/fcb-1010-with-ableton-live/
