Need help . Want to control knob with a pad

Hopefully someone would kind enough to assist. I've looked all over and cannot find my answer on how to do this.

I have created a knob that is controlling a macro knob in ableton live . But it can be difficult to dial into a specific value so I want to assign a pad that will control the knob . Each time I press the button it will move the knob up one value. I would also create another pad so I can move down a value. I assume I would need to create a script and have been trying to copy some examples I found in the manual but no success. I have no experience with programing. Can anyone lay this out for me? I would greatly appreciate it. Tim

And here is a more complex one with delayed repeat function (keeping the pad pressed contnues to increment-decrement knob) with pre-delay (how much time before repeat starts) and delay (how fast the repeating is done) settings

And finally, lol, two with delayed repeat function (keeping the pad pressed contnues to increment-decrement knob) with pre-delay (how much time before repeat starts) and delay (how fast the repeating is done) settings which can be set by two other knobs (end user friendly) - the second one keeps the settings' knobs in a container tab for better on-screen real estate
