MIDI from launchpad user 2 into Max for Live

Hi guys,

I'm having problems getting midi information from user 2 on my launchpad into Max for Live.

User 1 mode works fine. The MIDI Track In Indicator in the top right corner of the Ableton screen lights up when buttons are pressed, and the information is transmitted to the midiin object in Max for Live, but when I switch to User 2 the MIDI Track In Indicator does not light up. Instead the Key/MIDI In Indicator lights up when buttons are pressed and no MIDI makes it to the midiin object in my patch.

Does anyone know why that may be? From what I've read user 2 is the mode that should be used for Max for Live...

Thanks,
Christian

You need to read user 2 mode through the control surface and not through midi, have a look for Octopad on Max4Live.com it'll make an excellent start for you....
