Start playback track on DAW (e.g. Ableton live)

Post by Greg » Thu Jan 30, 2025 6:26 am

Hi,
i would like to start playing a multitrack playback on a DAW like Ableton triggered by a cue.
I am thinking of sending MIDI from SCS to Ableton live - but i dont see how i could register Ableton live as Device.
Is such a thing possible? How?

Best wishes,
Greg

You would just send to the appropriate MIDI port. In SCS you would add a Control Send device and then add choose the device type MIDI out followed by selecting the device and port.
Please refer to the MIDI control send section of the help files.
