Reset slider to zero when button is off

Similar to the "Release all buttons" option in Live, it would be awesome to have another option that can be used to reset all fader and step buttons back to 0%.

Thanks in advance!

How do you mean? You can effectively do this by either doing ctrl+alt+(any letter key on your keyboard) or creating a scene that does just that and trigger that scene however you like.

Currently, when using CCs to trigger fader buttons in "Live", when the CC drops abruptly back to zero, the button will turn off, but the fader will stay at a value that is above zero. This fader value is what I want to reset to zero.

We can not do this, because sometimes, without midi controller (using the mouse), we want to leave the fader not at zero.

That will be better to understand why our software misses the "lowest level" message before the level "0" message.
What midi device are your using ?

These CC messages are sent from sequenced midi in Cubase, through the IAC midi driver in MacOS.

So it is like you switch off the button with the mouse, without moving the fader.
This action may be voluntary.
Our software must not interfere by inserting some other midi messages to move the slider.
