Hello earthlings! I am fairly new to modular but have a question for anyone familiar with Ableton and Endorphin.es' Shuttle Control.

I'm creating a live show that uses Ableton plus a tiny modular rack for drum synthesis. All sequencing will be done in Ableton and transmitting midi via USB to the Shuttle Control, which converts it to gate/CV.

Unfortunately, I have found I cannot use Ableton's CV Tools to send CV to Shuttle Control. The only option appears to be using an External Instrument, which is the only tool that provides "Shuttle Control" as an option under the "Midi To" section. With External Instrument I can send triggers by dropping notes on a midi grid, which is great for triggering my Pico Drums.

However, I can't figure out any intelligent way to send CV from Ableton to Shuttle Control — the only option to send CV appears to be by drawing the modulation curve by hand in the Envelopes panel. That sucks because I want to be able to send CV that is randomized, as well as pre-arranged, during my live show. Is there a plug-in or Max device that does this?

If anyone has any know-how on this, I'd sooooo appreciate it. Thank you!
