Easy mix in intro and the actual meat of the track is pretty quick and direct, with a longer outtro.  I did it as a punch in/punch out type remix for when I play out.  This bootleg will probably go through another revision in the near future.

Anyways, hope you enjoy it.

Its done with the Free Bomes MT version. It will also work for the XONE1D or 2D. I use a PC, so I’m not sure if this will convert to MAC or not.

Let me know if you have any questions.

You’ll Need to Download:

1. Midik’s Bomes XONE:3D Template Pack <–Right Click & Save As

Pack Contents:

1. BOMES MT Free Version (http://www.bome.com/)
2. Midi Yoke (http://www.midiox.com/)
3. Image of Control Layout
4. Instructions on setting it all up.

How to get it to work:

1. Install Bomes Midi Translator (included in DLed Pack)
2. Install Midi Yoke (included in DLed Pack)
3. Open Ableton Deactivate your XONE:3D in Midi Sync. Track=Off Remote=Off
4. Open Bomes
5. In Bomes choose “Midi In” as XONE:3D Midi
6. Choose “Midi Out” as Midi Yoke: 1
7. Go back to Ableton
8. Turn on track and remote Midi Yoke:1 under Midi Sync in Ableton Preferences
9. On the Bomes icon in your system tray (by the clock) Right Click and select “Midi Thru”
10. Go to Bomes and open the XONE:3D Template (included in the DLed pack).
11. Go back to Ableton and enjoy!

That’s it! You can now use the mouseless nav template. Included in the DL pack is an image of the control layout, or check it out on flicker here >

I’m working on adding a shift button in order to double the controls.  I will post a new template up once its finished.

Editing this Ableton Template for a Different Controller In Bomes

1. Double click on the “Incoming Trigger” you wish to remap to your controller
2. Check the box “Capture Midi”
3. Press your midi key, pad, or pot/knob
4. Select that note from the list
5. Click apply
6. Keystroke should now be mapped to your controller
7. Go to Live, and try it out!

Thats all you need to do for applying these setting to your different controller (Trigger Finger, midi keyboard, ect..).  All these keystrokes are for Ableton Live, so as long as you’re using that, you’re good!
