Hey,

I'm bangin my head against the wall nearly passing out trying to get this to work.

I can't figure out, no matter where I google or what I press on my MPC and in Ableton, to get the software to respond to the q-sliders.

Yea, they work fine on the MPC, and the software will setup a pad to a MIDI command no problem, but when I try to setup the q-sliders, nothing will happen.

Can somebody help a brotha out? I really need these workin, it's like having candy but not being able to eat it.

Also, can I use the wheels or volumes or whatever as sliders or MIDI controlling things?

You need q-links to send midi-cc and that's only possible with JJOS: OS1,OS2,OS2XL and if you have the large screen OS128XL.

Just activate a Q-Link and in the lower left corner of the LCD set it's function to CC. Right next to CC you can dial in #'s 1-127. If your MPC is transmitting MIDI to Live you can use Live's remote mapping to assign the Q-Link's MIDI CC out to specific targets.
