My guess is that I dont get the correct [ctlout]'s 2nd inlet value because each control surface (template?) that ableton works with seems to have different values set for that.
I never used any "control surface (template?)" and I think you don't need to emulate one. You just create the custom one you need (with "Edit MIDI map") on each Ableton project.

In my setup I use a Virtual loopback MIDI named "loopMIDI". Here's a screenshot :

Note that the "Remote" button must be "On" for your "virtual-driver".

Hi Fede,
Mostly all parameters that you change with the mouse in Ableton Live can be assigned to a MIDI Controller. Just right-click on any knob and select "Edit MIDI map". Then just send some [ctlout] from Pd and that controller (say midichannel 1 controller 1) will be auto-mapped to that Ableton knob. You can also use other Pd MIDI out objects as well.

Hi,
I would like to control Ableton Live 10 Intro with Pd 0.50.2 on macos.
On Pd I set the Midi Devices "IAC Driver IAC Bus 1" as input and "2" as output. On Ableton I set "ADVANCE" as "Control Surface" with "IAC Driver IAC Bus 2" as input and "1" as output.
So far, [noteout] works as expected, but [ctlout] only works when an instrument/effect is focused on Ableton, and assigning values is not consistent since every Ableton effect/instrument has a different setup.
Since I don't have external controllers, I imagine that one can use the "midi map" function in Ableton to assign any [ctlout] message as one would with a midi controller. However, I cannot seem to accomplish this.
I have been using [midiin] to check within Pd the values that correspond to knobs and other stuff in Ableton, but there seems to be only a limited amount of things I have access to from Pd (e.g. I cannot change focus from Pd)
Has anyone tried any of this? Are there any other solutions for controlling Ableton with Pd? Is midi the right way to go?
