What MIDI messages to use for cue point triggering?

I see how to map the messages but what exactly do the messages need to be to be able to tap a cue point and have it trigger the cue repeatedly?

I have a nanoKontrol and can send notes or CC# in toggle or gate.

I want gate so whenever I hit the mapped cue it plays. Thanks!

Check the new version (2.2)

With the new version you should find it extremely easy to map a sequential range of MIDI notes to trigger either loops, cue points, or both! Your MIDI input can be taken from the host application, or directly from your chosen device. For lowest latency, take the MIDI input directly from your MIDI device.

The VST is recognizing my nanoKontrol.

However while in the midi tab it is not letting me select my device. It remains on "none" when selected.

If I set up a channel in ableton to recieve and send the info from the nanoKontrol to the VST channel I get activity but am still unable to edit any of the parameters.

I am on the most recent version of Live 8
Windows 7 4 GBRAM
nanoKontrol

I am controlling Ms Pinky with vinyl which is working flawlessly inside of ableton on two channels. Just need help mapping my cues and such. Thanks.

First, if you're on Windoze, you must check out this post:

Once you've properly setup the "Options.txt" file, then you should be able to type in the channel and note numbers to Pinky VST, and it should then be able to receive MIDI and respond appropriately.
