I found another midi sequencer to open an Ableton 'Capture" file in and found that my attempt to record in an existing midi clip (as I was instructed to do) was resulting in a timeline of controller data where only part of the midi file contained the controller values, so as this midi file played, I was going from no values to current values. I have found that pressing snapshot send just before I record enable a fresh clip and then pressing stop in my sequencer as fast as I can captures the vulues accurately.Finicky as all crap but it does work. The second problem I was having was that any controllers set at a value of zero when captured would not not transmit the zero value again.I presume this is because the default value in Live before launching a clip is zero and cc value messages are not transmitted unless there is a change in value, so zero to zero is a no go.I have set all my minimum values to one and that seems to have sorted that issue out ;) Now my only hurdle is how to capture and playback "toggle on" messages. So far not so good... Ultimately what I need is a VSTI that can capture snapshots on multiple channels and retransmit to midi yoke...or?? Having to setup 6-8 remotely triggered midi clips on 6-8 midi channels for each "mix transitions" I want to make seems like doing things the hard way.. Regardless, if you do incorporate a "save snapshot to midi clip" in BCMan, I may find it easier to use than the above technique.I suppose it is quite possible someone else may find it usefull as well :) btw,the midi file I was looking at in another sequencer showed exactly one bar of continuous (not changing) cc values I'll try to find your email and if not I'll dump the file in the files section in case you would like it for reference.
