Send midi from a clip slicer?

I'm having trouble sending midi from a clip slicer. I'm not sure if it's possible, or there is a workaround.

My aim is to record some audio to a clip, and have a clip slicer pointed to that audio. That much is fine, when I press the clip slice button the audio slices play.

But I'd also like to record those button presses as midi to a midi clip, so I could play back various patterns of the slices. I can't find a way to send midi, or any options to add actions to the buttons of the clip the clip slicer. Am I missing something?

    You would do it indirectly. One way would be to create a button grid whose press/release actions send midi to a Colour and midi learn those colours as triggers for the clip slicer.

    Thanks for that, I had another thought a little while ago, tried it and it seems to work, I think it's a different method.

    I created a widget to trigger each slice of the clip slicer, and also to send a midi note message to a midi clip. Then I 'midi learned' each widget to respond to that specific note number sent from the clip... and thus trigger the clip slices on playback.

    I guess if it works its OK right?

    That’ll work.
