TRIGGER

Introducing the Ultimate Ableton Key Remapper ‘TRIGGER’ - full, flexible control over every keyboard command in Ableton Live.

Take full ownership of your workflow

Remap any key command to match how you work, whether you prefer one-key shortcuts, chord combos, or complex multi-key macros.

Create context-specific layouts for recording, editing, mixing, or live performance and switch between them instantly.

Save, export, and share custom key maps so you can reuse setups across projects or collaborate with others.

Deep customization, built for power users

Edit default Ableton bindings or start from a blank slate.

Assign single keys, multi-key sequences, modifiers, and toggle states.

Layer profiles so global keys coexist with project- or device-specific shortcuts.

Conditional mappings based on track type, focused device, or view (Arrangement vs Session).

Streamlined performance and reliability

Ultra-low latency processing to keep commands responsive during live sets.

Conflict detection and resolution tools to prevent accidental command overlap.

Profiles load automatically with Ableton projects for a seamless experience.

Designed to solve what Ableton didn’t deliver

Finally get the customization and precision users have asked for — no workaround hacks, no partial solutions.

Built to integrate cleanly with Live while keeping your mapping data portable and easy to manage.

Who this is for

Producers who want faster editing and fewer menu dives.

Live performers who need predictable, reliable shortcuts on stage.

Sound designers and mix engineers who prefer bespoke control layouts.
