The only ControlChange that works is SustainPedal.

[torbjorngorsetbakk]

I'm trying to control sliders in ableton, but the only CC that works is SustainPedal. Can anyone help me?

[jstnryan]

Which controller are you using?

[torbjorngorsetbakk]

I've tried volume, and also adding my own

[jstnryan]

Is this a MIDI piano or keyboard? Often controls that you might think are CC messages actually send note messages with variable velocities. Which specific model are you using?

[torbjorngorsetbakk]

I’m sorry, I should’ve been more specific. I’m trying to make an ouput device that changes knobs in my DAW

[jstnryan]

Are you certain that the DAW is mapped in a way that will respond to the specific messages you are sending? Can you show some example code of what you've tried?

[torbjorngorsetbakk]

It’s just example02, but changing Sustain to Volume

CustomControl is added in the Midi.Control file. Is it possible change a float in the software and change the reverb in ableton?
