Hi Rainer,

If you are using Live 6+ you may be able to set it up with the  
Utility plug-in in combination with a Rack. By using the RAck you can  
assign a MIDI controller to several targets and from version 6 the  
Utility plug-in has some enhanced functionality. Here's a quote from  
the Live 6 manual on the Utility plug-in:
