MPK49/Ableton Live 7 Help.

Heres my question,I posted it on Lives forum,but no one ever writes you back.

Topic,MPK49 Setup Help.


Im having alot of problems setting up this keyboard with Live 7(Windows XP)

1)Live keeps freezing when the MPK49 is plugged in.

2)Should I set the MPK49 to External?Its set to internal by default.I have it set to Live Lite on the preset on the MPK49.


3)Heres what it looks like under midi settings under the preference tab.Im using the Trigger Finger aswell,but thats working fine.

4)Why do I have 3 USB inputs and outputs under the midi setup section?What ones should I be using?After I find the ones that work should I hit the dump tab?


I really wanna use this keyboard with Live.

If anyone can help me out I would be very greatful.

Any feedback would be nice.

TY.


Anyone own one and use Live????

PLS HELP.

you got trigger finger setup as control surface, when that thing dont even have transport buttons, mpk49 does.

\ why you got everything selected in midi setup?, everything is set to sync and remote. this is probably why Live is freezing. you gotta figure out what device you'll be using as a controller, control surface, and take it from there.

I returned it for the Axiom 49.This keyboard works so well with Live 7,Im so happy!!!


The Mpk49 sucks with Ableton live,Might be good with Reason,but I dont use Reason anymore.

In a nutshell,The MPK49 was more trouble than its worth.Im sticking with M-Audio,Till I die.

Peace.
