**Tracking Play/pause button state on Ableton looper Via Bome midi translator**

Hiya

I was wondering if it’s possible to track the state of the loopers button play/pause of ableton audio effect via bome midi translator pro, or if it’s only possible to achieve this via a controller remote script.

I’m using a KORG nanokontrol2 and I can’t wrap my head around this, I mean mapping the led on/off via bome is easy but then it can get out of track when the record is over and play is automatic (instead of overdub)

Would be amazing 🙂
