This Max for Live device lets you change the position of your Session Ring (“Clip Grid”, “Red Box”, “Clip Matrix Selection”) via automation, mouse, Scene selection or playing clip in Ableton Live Session View in combination with your MIDI controller like the Akai APCs and Novation Launchpads.
There are 2 Max for Live devices included one for more current MIDI controller and one for ‘older’ devices.
Those are Max for Live devices and you will need M4L to make use of them. (M4L is included in Ableton Live Suite or as an add on towards Ableton Live Standard.)
