ello Florian & Crew!!!!
!! I have been trying to work with the remote zero & bome to control ableton 8...
all i want to do is use the rotary encoders to scroll up and down through clips on a track, I want the encoder to be able to transmit messages which will correspond to key up & key down keystrokes on my qwerty. In addition to this function I need the eight separate encoders to control the scrolling *(key up/key down function) on each separate track in live...
ie first encoder / track 1 - turn clockwise = scroll down / turn anticlockwise = scroll up
2nd encoder / track 3 - turn clock wise = scroll down / turn anticlockwise = scroll up
3rd encoder / track 2- turn clock wise = scroll down / turn anticlockwise = scroll up
u get the idea i hope....
so in practice i could, for example simultaneously scroll to the 5th clip down in track 1, the 8th clip in track 2, the third in 3, the 6th in four, only if I had like 15 fingers on each of my four hands (!)
Here's where im getting stuck:
1. In bome i get as far as assigning the encoder to a keystroke, but so far i've only got it to go up OR down, in live. what must i do to make it work both ways??
2. How do I set the Remote Zero encoders to govern a track each??
Thank You for reading and helping hopefully!!
