Feature Request: MPC LIVE III | MIDI Mapping Upgrades & More

Hi there! I'd love to request a feature, and I think this is the best place?

The ideas:
- Use a midi note or CC (momentary button? etc.) to open the clip matrix

- Use a midi note or CC (momentary button? etc.) to open the mixer

- Use a midi note or CC (momentary button? etc.) to play the 'next row' in the clip matrix (i.e., the one *below* the row currently playing) or the previous row (i.e., the one *above* the row currently playing -> this would help us use

- Use the "Event arrows" OR the +/- buttons in "Clip matrix mode" (a preferences choice?) to launch previous/next rows .....(at least on the Live III - I can't speak for the other devices in this forum category) in clip matrix

- Use a midi note or CC (momentary button? etc.) to select a track in a mode of your choosing (i.e., I'd like to click a button and it would pull up 'submix 1' on the inserts page so I could quickly make a change on the fly, then quickly switch back to the clip matrix

- Midi Map the Tempo to a CC knob in 'stepped mode', with defined max/min ranges

- Overall, RANGE max/min in midi - it would be great to midi map a fader and not worry about clipping above 0dB, or to set a fader's usable range to only ~10dB instead of -infinity to +6

- Set default mode in preferences to be "Move by 1, 4, 8, 12" in the Clip Matrix (left, right, up, down)

- Midi map 'move by 1, 4, 8, 12' in clip matrix mode

- Show *currently selected track*'s name in the pull-down menu where you can currently access the 'time correct, loop, automation, metronome, link...'

I played a show today and each one of these, altogether, would have made things about 200% smoother to interact with the device

The best place for request is going to the company:

You're basically are asking for a Force2, which has dedicated buttons for the things you want. The mixer & clips buttons, as well as many others can be held down to jump to that menu & it will snap back to when you let go. Holding Shift & any of the directional button will jump 8 track (Left/Right) or 8 rows (Up/Down). Maybe they can add this to L3 some how.

You can set min/max ranges for macros. The setting are in the macro menu "hidden" options found by tapping the down arrows on the bottom right of the screen. Check the manual. You can assign 100s of parameters to each macro. You can even have them go in reverse like you can have the vol go down a bit when the a LPF cutoff with high resonance starts to clip to tame it.
