Improved Ableton MIDI remote script for the Arturia MiniLab 3 controller.

The provided "DAW" mode in the MiniLab 3 configures its encoders as abolute knobs. The issue is that when changing parameters using these knobs, the currently mapped parameter value jumps to the absolute value of the knob, which is far from ideal. Here I provide a custom MIDI remote script which fixes this issue. With this script Ableton notifies the Minilab 3 the values of the currently selected device parameters and the MiniLab 3 alings the encoders to these values.

1. Download the files in this repository.

2. Stop Live if it is running.

3. Add MiniLab_3_Notify to Ableton Live's MIDI Remote Scripts library

   The folder Minilab_3_notify contains the MIDI Remote Script. To install it follow the official Ableton's guide to install a third-party remote script.

4. Connect your MiniLab 3 device to your computer using a USB cable.

5. Open Live and enable Minilab 3 notify as a Control Surface

   In Live’s Preferences go to the Link, Tempo & MIDI tab and select MiniLab 3 Notify from the dropdown list of available Control Surfaces. As MIDI Input select MiniLab3 (MIDI). As MIDI Output select MiniLab3 (MIDI). Takeover mode can be set to None.
