MIDI mapping in Live
MIDI mapping parameters in Live are actually really simple. In this section, I will walk you through how to set this up.
Important note
Remember what we learned at the end of the previous section; for MIDI mapping to work, you need to have Remote selected for at least the In port of the device under the MIDI Ports section in the Preferences | Link Tempo MIDI tabs!
If your controller has a screen or lights that can display MIDI controls set to Live, then you should also have Remote ticked for the Out port of the device.
Follow these steps to set up MIDI mapping parameters in Live:
- Navigate to the PAD track in the Chapter 14 project file.
- Display the Device View (which is, in this case, an Instrument Rack).
- Now, press the MIDI button shown in Figure 14.7 or hit Cmd + M (Ctrl + M on Windows):

Now, you will notice that loads of parameters, buttons, knobs, and faders...
