Hi everyone, just bought a akai lpd8, i am using it to control ableton, i can map it to launch clips, but i can't play the drumrack.

I have already created a folder named LPD8 on User Remote Scripts and placed a txt file named userconfiguration with the script:

I have also changed the parameters of LDP8 editor like this: (Attachment)

When i open ableton and press midi mapping i can't get any control of drum rack. In Midisync everything is ok.

Any help would be apreciated.

Cheers

Do you have Track switched on in preferences for the LPD8 MIDI input port?

Yes i have, and remote as well, i attached my preferences board.

I think the problem relies on the script of userconfiguration but i can't find what is wrong there.

I don't think you should need to be doing anything with the user scripts to be able to use it - since it's a supported controller in Live, it's plug'n'play, really.
