Hi. I have set up the MicroFreak so that is can record and playback MIDI in Ableton. No issues there. The issue is that I would love to be able to see any modulation changes (filter, resonance, cut off etc) that I make when recording, like an automation lane. Is this possible.
I can select the ‘MIDI Overdub’ button in Ableton and then record the modulation such as playing with the filter. This works and I can hear the modulation as I playback. However, visually I cant see these changes in Ableton. It would be ideal to see this in an automation red line and would be really useful for making adjustments and fine tuning.
I think what you want is to look at the correct Envelope(s) in your MIDI Clip.
For example, I recorded a MIDI track from my Microfreak and turned the Cutoff knob as I played. After opening the recorded MIDI clip in Ableton, I clicked the Envelope tab above the clip, and in the selectors at the lower-left of the clip, I selected “MIDI Ctrl” and “23: Undefined”. The blue line showing my Cutoff changes is displayed in the MIDI clip. You can then manually adjust it like any other automation envelope in Ableton.
