Launchpad & Nocturn - Instant Track Control Using MIDI Remote Scripts

In this video I'll demonstrate an interesting feature of Ableton: MIDI Remote Scripting. This allows you to use a MIDI controller, in our case the Nocturn, to access the first 8 Controls of a focused Device in Ableton. This is a similar feature to the Track Control section on the Akai APC40.

You can read more about it here:

I've uploaded the edited script and Automap Settings here:

As I mention in the video, being able to instantly access Device Controls is fantastic when working in the studio, however I prefer hard mapped controls when performing so I know what's what.
