How to Load any of the 600 Scaler Progressions by Song or Artist using MIDI messages only?

How can i force a certain Scaler Progression to load using any MIDI Command (and thus create a track with it)? Or, is that selection only available by saving the Live set file with that progression chosen in the plug-in? In other words, what if i want more than one progression to load during a song, ie to load a second different progressions at some location in live other than start, without having to use the mouse to open the Song or Artist menu choice? I see how to do it such as for matrix controller tab, but i wondered if there was a generalized way that could index to all the progressions, not just a few of them.

Another reason would be to change progressions using MIDI devices only (no mouse) conveniently outside a “song” per se, as an improvised or exploratory live performance change. Once we know how to wire MIDI messages to each progression (noting that since there are 600, it’s clearly a type of MIDI message with banks or MSB/LSB) then we could create any new kind of chord progression access interface method including using such as TouchOSC or similar MIDI control tools (or even by a MIDI foot controller).

Thanks so much, we will investigate that method.

thank you for pointing this out. we had taken the method of monophonic notes clips (or FCB-1010 foot controller &/or iOS TouchOSC remotes) to control chords alone, previously.

Recalling performance modes using Live’s track envelopes thats great. WE’re doing similarly for our FreeSpace MIDi Effects controllers and macros.

Is there documentation as to all the UI/controls/features in Scaler3 which are MIDI controllable/autoamtable? Is there a “master list” of all such “slots” for MIDI automation?
