"Sounds to MIDI notes" not sounding the same?

Prime Minister Zhou

When I use "sounds to midi note" to drag a pattern into lives arrangement or session view I have to transpose the notes up two octaves so the kick falls on C3 (middle C) yet the pitch of notes is all off is there a better solution to this or away to open push as a 16 channel midi group in Ableton like there used to be. Taking in to account that that's probably not the best solution since a Maschine instance may have more than one set of pad groups!?!

Sounds to MIDI Notes yields mapping of Pads to MIDI pitches:

• Pad 1 (Kick 1) = C1
• Pad 2 (Snare 1) = C#1
• Pad 3 (HH closed) = D1
• Pad 4 (HH open) = D#1
• Pad 5 (Kick 2) = E1
• Pad 6 (Snare 2) = F1
• Pad 7 (Perc 1) = F#1
• Pad 8 (Perc 2) = G1
• etc.

Therefore you will lose all pitch information from each of the Pads (Sounds).

If you play back a Pattern exported with Sounds to MIDI Notes, you have to set the Group / MIDI / Routings / Key Mode settings to Manual. Each Pad (Sound) will then react as if it receives a MIDI C3.

If you intentionally pitched the notes for each of the Pads (Sounds), you cannot use Sounds to MIDI Notes but must use Sounds to MIDI Channels instead.
