It sounds like you need a replacement switch sent out. We’ve gone through a few manufacturers, so I just want to verify which switch type you have.

That mapping was intended to bring focus to the looper you’ve just recorded on for beginners to have a secondary visual aid, but it’s not necessary. Outside of that, there’s nothing in the script that changes focus. I don’t…[Read more]

You can use the Datalooper Config software to program whatever CC messages the Boss RC505 expects to receive. Check out the RC505 manual, and they should have a MIDI implementation chart somewhere in there.

It’s possible your config had a different channel configured than the default config. By default, the Datalooper template is linked to MIDI channel 14. Unless there’s an Ableton bug I’m not aware of, there should be no reason that the template would not link the MIDI mappings. Can you confirm you were on channel 14?
