MIDI learn not always working?

Started by Joshlane

When I try to use MIDI learn, on distortion gain for example, it doesn't seem to pick up my midi.

What I try is:
Right click Gain
Click midi learn
Move knob on AKAI MPK Mini MK2
Nothing happens

However I see the MIDI received button light up in my Ableton. Am I doing something wrong?

It's probably something with your controller, I'm not sure what you're transmitting, try recording it in to a clip.  You could also try drawing a CC in a clip on Serum's track in live and use the MIDI learn with that playing.  I expect that will work.
Also please use the Serum forum for Serum support.

you ever figure this out dude? i have the mpk mini 2 as well and sometimes the midi learn to the macro buttons in serum will pick up my knob, sometimes it wont

It was pretty silly, I actually just hadn't armed the right track (pressing the red recording circle on the track).
