The ability to import a MIDI remote script into Remotify and edit it to your own needs is an important part of the App. An example of when this comes in useful is for example when you’ve just bought a new midi controller but you want it to have the functionality you created in a previous script. Simply, import the script back into Remotify and you can edit the midi messages to match your new controller and you’re good to go!

Today we’re announcing a great set of new features for the Remotify app, all based around how you can control your Ableton devices.
Up until now with Remotify, you’ve had the ability to control the currently selected device in Ableton (aka the device with the blue hand icon)

Most people already know about Ableton Live's built in MIDI mapping engine.
You click a parameter, then press/push/turn the relevant input on your midi controller and boom! you have a midi mapping. It's a useful feature and gives you the ability to easily assign some functions to your controller....
