New album out - Laundry After Midnight - Lee Safar

Hi there everyone!

After two years of work by myself (evolutionary theory aka etheory aka Luke Emrose), Lee Safar and 2 other producers, Steven St.Thomas and Shane Cross, the Lee Safar album "Laundry After Midnight" is out today: 12/12/2012.

All of the tracks that I produced (and there are 10 of ...

Re: Support for Polyphonic Aftertouch

As with most things on this forum, I'd like to suggest a tiered development schedule for this feature.

I'd suggest the following:

1.) Stop filtering the polyphonic aftertouch from external instruments, and instead, let them pass through.
2.) Let ALL MIDI data pass-through, stop deleting ANY of it ...

Shackles - Lee Safar with production by evolutionary theory

The following tunes were produced by myself for the vocalist - Lee Safar - using entirely Ableton and hardware equipment I built myself by hand (the preamps are ClassicAPI VP26 and Sound Skulptor MP73's I built, along with a SB4000 SSL-style bus compressor).
There is also some Oberheim SEM Pro ...

Re: dual monitor support damnit!!!!!

I currently use Live across 2 monitors in a somewhat Guerilla fashion.
I drag the window to precisely fill both monitors.

And, aside from a few days of getting used to this messing with your head when you edit data in the middle of the two screens, it's actually entirely workable, and has ...

Re: Exporting "All tracks": imprint sends and name group tracks

fair enough.

there are a lot of cool features that folks have brought up along the way that require holding Shift or Ctrl etc. to achieve. one thing that comes to mind...if you name a clip with the bpm it will play at that bpm (something along those lines)... what i'm getting at is that maybe ...

Re: How about crowdfunding the most wanted Ableton Live updates?

:D wow. i was expecting a much different response. i almost hit cancel instead of submit.

starting a thread is not the way. the problem is that it's unorganized... there are serious requests that are achievable, there are unreasonable requests that are not (at least at the time), there are jokes ...

Re: Exporting "All tracks": imprint sends and name group tracks

if you disable the tracks you don't want they won't be exported when you change the export setting to all.

I know, but this is inefficient.
I don't want to have to remember this detail.
I believe that the export dialog should be responsible for remembering this per live set.
It's too prone to ...

Re: How about crowdfunding the most wanted Ableton Live updates?

"we" who? some of the things people want cancel out things that others want.

i customize software (among other things) for a living and people say "oh can't you just _____" all the time. if it were only so simple.

let me give you an example:

someone wants me to add a check box that when checked ...

Re: Ability to warp audio in Simpler / Sampler

How would the warping work?
Everyone has said that they want it but there isn't a single description of HOW it would work.
If I was a software engineer reading this feature request, I would definitely ignore it, as there isn't any hint as to what you actually mean.

But I'll hazard a guess.

Exactly.

hopefully someone from abe HQ will chime in here, lets you know if this is an interesting offer, kickstarts have to be started by the party that wants to be funded, i believe

Re: Exporting "All tracks": imprint sends and name group tracks

+1, but, even better, and far more useful, would be the ability to actually select which tracks to export.
I RARELY want ALL.

For instance when have you actually used the Master channel during an ALL export? Seems totally counterintuitive for a STEM export.

Also there should be a naming template ...

Re: How about crowdfunding the most wanted Ableton Live updates?

that was conservative, they claim 1.78 million users...each somewhere between 500 and 800$...get out the calculator

Again, this isn't simple. At all. In all likelihood a lot of people are using cracked versions (for which I have no tolerance for at all) or a cheaper demo version.

So no, getting ...

Re: So... will there be a "bounce in place" feature in Live 9?

I think the most common use case for me for such a feature would be a track that contains a compressor linked to a side-chain.
At the moment you cannot flatten such a track as it has a "link to another track".

Now logically, I understand that this warning is intended to stop people from complaining ...
