Hey all. I’ve been expanding my knowledge of ableton recently and decided to try how OP-1 works with it. Everything seems to be pretty straightforward except for “User Bank 1 Select”. Can anyone clarify how those work? I understand, that it’s mapable layouts to map to different things in ableton? Are they same for all pages (performance, clips, mixer, etc)? i.e. is User Bank 1 will store all the same controls in all 4 modes? Does it apply only to notes, or will work with knobs? I haven’t tried it out yet, certainly can do it myself, but little introduction might be helpful, thanks.
Hi!
First of all, I’d recommend to install my updated script, if you haven’t done it yet.

The user bank at the moment does nothing - it just sends CC but it isn’t processed by the ableton script. You can midi map it, but that’s all. But I am definitely open to ideas how to extend the functionality!
G-sensor doesn’t send anything.
@popcorn thanks for clarification. It looks to me that midi cc mapping is powerful on it’s own. But still: from where it sends CC? keyboard? Or encoders too?
yeah every button and encoder has its CC, even encoder presses. I think keyboard sends note on/off instead of CC, but I am not sure. You can check what is being sent with some midi montor tool i.e. midiox.
