@memorylane1980s manually create all your tracks and assign them to all 16 instruments following my advice in this tutorial. once youve replicated the 16 edirol tracks in your arrangement view, enable recording on all of the tracks by holding shift while clicking the enable record button.

[memorylane1980s]

@Treijim Hi, u mean the record enable button! it turns red when enabled? but that only STILL gives you a midi signal to the first channel of the software! (Flute as Default)we need midi sinals to ALL 16 on the software can that not be done?

@memorylane1980s google 'ableton live arrangement recording' and youll find it :) it looks like a grey button with a black circle thing in it on the far right of your arrangement view. theres one for each track

[memorylane1980s]

@Treijim PHEW!strugglin here:P where is the arrangement recording button?is it on Ableton or the software? got the output selector but no idea what that does.If I could find that then I could do as you say hold the shift and that sounds like it should do it.but theres NOTHING that says arrangement recording!I have Ableton set on all channels but the other 15 on the software arent recieving a midi signal,I use mainly session view on Ableton but have checked the arrangement view.HELP!
