Hello,
When I load a DrumStepp-r in a blank midi track (Ableton 10), then the sound/sequence control dials (like ADSR and such) only show up in a split second and then dissapear.
When I follow the instructions of the tutorial video, this also does not bring up these functions to these dials.
Does somebody recognizes what the issue could be here?
It's frustrating, as I can not use the controller like it should. Followed every step very carefully, installed everything according to instructions, but still, the dials won't show up with their functions.
Also, I can't figure out how to reach the drumrack and step sequencer via the CNTR:R.
Which dial activates the drumrack, and which dial makes the leds active on the sequencer of the controller?
Is there some kind of system, map or anything? Can't find any documentation about that.
When I follow the exact same instructions with any video or tutorial, my controller just doesn't show the step sequencer in the 16row leds...
Do i need a reset or something?
Any help would be much appreciated as I have some shows coming up and would love to be able to use this.
Thank you!

I did some work on this recently, so I know the issue you're talking about. Thought I'd fixed it though. Have you downloaded the most current version of m4m8 and installed it correctly?
Hello Amounra,
Some more infomation that might be useful:
And another update Amounra...
It should'nt be that difficult isn't it, to simply plug and play a midicontroller?
also weird is that every other folder that is added from the m4m8 folder is visible in the dropdown list in Ableton (such as aumhaa, monopedal, debug etc...)
Have you tried with the current version of Live (10.0.3)? The current version of m4m8 is built against that version, I'll change the readme to reflect that.
Hello Amounra,
But of course that was not the initial problem, which unfortunately is bigger and still persists.
Sounds like you have some conflicting files. Unfortunately, there is no installer for this stuff at the moment, so you'll have to manually check for duplicate files and remove any that are extra. My guess is that you probably have multiple versions of modtranslator.js, and an older one is getting loaded instead of the correct current one. Make sure that you've removed all the old files and then try installing again. If the scripts are working (sounds like they are), the only stuff that needs to be replaced is what lives in the Max 8 Packages folder.
Hi Amounra,
Hopefully your guess is a good one.
Also...is there a download link to the latest or most compatible version of the drum and synthsteppr somewhere?
Untill now, it seems to be working more or less....
I tought the ring leds of both rotary knobs had the same midi value, but in the editor, they have different values so its really weird that one rotary knob addresses both ring leds.
Regarding your last post (multiple encoders mapped to the same parameter), I can't reproduce this using the current version of Live. Everything works as expected for me. Have you done a factory reset via the editor for your controller?
Of course I did a factory reset. I mean, I do actively troubleshoot like it should.
