Ableton - How to MIDI map a function to a knob to change played loop?

[captain lysergicacid]

Hi,

is there a possibility, hack, max4livedevice, vst, etc ...
Where i could assign a midi knob to change the playing loop?

Lets say I have a pool of various drum loops ... when I play and jam, and want to change the playing drum loop, I just press knob X, and ta da, the next drum loop is playing.

Any input?

You could build a Simpler with a loop on every midi key (or buttons), or use the clip launch buttons in Session View. Or set up some scenes (each with a different drum loop), then you can change loops using up/down & Enter on your computer keyboard. I use PUSH2 for jamming. Only "one press" solution I know of (other than Novation Launchpad).
