Midi Map knobs on the organ pannel (for example)

[coucou1009]

Hey everybody,
I'm playing live with presets on the nord stage 3 and happen to be also in charge for triggering samples from ableton.
I used to do everything just with a midi keyboard, and could therefore assign some knobs to the different stuff I have to trigger on the computer.
Now, the whole set is rethought so that all the sounds that I play come from the nord.
What I would really love, is to be able to assign the buttons and knobs (for example, those from the organ section, that I don't use otherwise) to some commands on Ableton.
So far, my computer doesn't seem to detect those buttons as midi mappable.
I noticed that the extern section would allow me to map this one knob. (midi CC)

But i would be really happy, to be able to map more stuff, so that I don't need to get another tiny midi controller just for that.

Would anybody here have some inputs for me?

Hmm. I was under the impression that all those controls sent MIDI. (If nothing else, otherwise you wouldn't be able to record your real-time organ manipulations of those controls into your DAW performance.) Maybe the organ controls don't send MIDI if the organ section is not active? If that's the case, you could activate it to get the controls to work, but set all the drawbars to zero so it still wouldn't make a sound. Other than that, maybe double-check all the MIDI channel settings, since I think the only channel these controls can send on is the Global channel.

Oh thanks a lot, the fact the you confirmed that they were supposed to send midi made me check again, and the problem was in the midi settings on ableton! Now it works.
Now i wish that they could be simple on offs buttons and not functioning after the logic of the drawbar (the samples are now triggered only when I hit one precise virtual drawbar scale!)
