I'm not at home so I can't double check this right now, but check in Enigma (Trigger Finger's editor) for a template to load...I know it has one for Reason in there, but I can't remember if it has one for Live..

I'll look at it tonight when I get home...if I remember it works for me.

Enigma has two Live templates to upload to the Trigger Finger. The Impulsex2 template sounds like what you need. I loaded it, loaded an Impulse into Live and whacked the pads...

I had some trouble with Enigma and my Trigger Finger so heres how to do it manually, its fairly simple:

Press 'Memory Recall' and 'Prog/Change Bank' together on the TF to access Edit mode
Press the pad you want to start at C3 (the default first assigned note in Impulse, it'll probly be P13)
Turn the C1/Note/Min knob until it says C3 on the screen
Repeat for each pad, ignoring the sharps (eg. P14 - D3 P15 - E3 etc...)
Once you've done the 6 pads of impulse press Save and Exit and voila...

hope that helps!
