10.2 ABLETON LIVE
Setup
To set up Ableton Live Automap, carry out the following steps:
1. Make sure you have Ableton Live 5.2 or later. If you need to update Live then you can download the latest version from
www.ableton.com. Live 6 and 7 are also supported.
2. Connect the ReMOTE SL to your computer and open Ableton Live. Go to the ‘MIDI/Sync’ page of the Live preferences
and set the options as shown in the following screenshot:
NOTE: The Input AND Output of the ReMOTE SL in the ‘Control Surfaces’ section must be set to ReMOTE SL Port 2.
3. Exit the preferences and start using Live!
The Ableton Live Automap template (template 40) must be selected on the ReMOTE SL when using it in Ableton Live
Automap mode. Once you have followed the above set up instructions, the ReMOTE SL will automatically switch to the
Ableton Live Automap template and will do so each time you subsequently launch Live. Whilst using the ReMOTE SL in
Ableton Live Automap mode, you can switch to any other template on the unit (for example to control hardware MIDI
devices or Automap-wrapped plug-ins using the Automap Universal template) and then switch back to the Ableton Live
Automap template to control Live again.
