    Thank you for this! I've used MIDI CCs plenty and am super comfortable with those but was trying to set up a controller with my Rev2 and gave up after an hour of struggling to figure out NRPNs! This seems like it should solve my issue!

    Happy I could help :) too bad that is still the only tool available for NRPN in Ableton it’s quite old :(

    Have you tried Ableton 12’s Performance Pack by Iftah? Specifically Performer? Looks promising

    Great tutorial! How did you manage to solve the problem when the prophet’s sequencer would start to play when you would hit “play” in ableton?

    Thanks! Oh man, that annoyed me for some time then I solved it but now that I tried to reproduce the issue and go back to this annoying behaviour I could not do it. It had smth to do with the MIDI clock of course, have you tried to set it to n55 (NSS) in the global settings?Also check that you have the latest OS on your machine.

    @@solarj yes, setting the midi clock to n55 did the trick! The only problem now is that I can't properly set program changes. For whatever reason, when the npnr max device is on, ableton does not switch the banks. When I close the plugin, it works but I can't use the automated parameteres anymore.

    found it! You have to send, in the NPNR plugin, the MIDI Thru filter, to NPNR. Then, for Prophet 6 you set the bank number at the "sub bank" field and the preset number in the program field. I use a basic midi clip in ableton to automate program changes for external gear.

    Sorry I have no clue…as I mentioned it’s crazy that we have to rely on a super old tool made by a private person to use NRPN easily! Maybe if your computer it’s new it doesn’t support it anymore? That would be tragic…I couldn’t find any alternative to gbravetti’s tool for sending NRPN from Ableton..Let us know if you find a better solution!
