Recommendations for version control / remote collaboration

I'm looking for recommendations into services/workflows that for sharing a project with a remote collaborator.

I've been away from production in Ableton for a few years, and the old way of sending a zip file back and forth via dropbox leaves a lot to be desired. Coming from a programming ...

Quick question about clip automation and sends

It's been a while since I've done much in ableton so I think I might be over thinking this.

I have a multiple song set and I want to automate the send level for individual clips. I go to the envelope box in clip view and choose "Mixer" and then "A-Verb" to bring up the automation lane.

I realize ...

Re: APC 40 FAQs, features and questions

Sorry to inundate you guys with questions but this should be the last for a while. A have a strobe light hooked up to ableton via DMXIS. It works well but I would like to program a knob to send an emergency stop message to the strobe if things get out of hand.

Is there a way to make a knob (such ...

Re: Why is my APC40 sending MIDI notes to my Ultranova?

Thanks for all the info. Disabling remote in/out on the ultranova solved the problem but I'll definately check out the MIDI app to get a better sense of what's going on.

THANKS SO MUCH!

Re: Why is my APC40 sending MIDI notes to my Ultranova?

Hi ian,

When you remote Live, Live gives a Feedback to ALL ports where Remote is switched on (in the midi preferences).

To solve your problem deactivate the Ultranova (input/output) for Remote in the Midi Preferences or find a Midi Channel for the Ultranova which is not used by your APC40 ...

Re: APC 40 FAQs, features and questions

Thanks for the info. It worked out. I'm using the main record button to turn on the master beat repeat. Problem is that MIDI note (A5) is also being sent to my ultranova. Anytime I hit beat repeat I get a sustained A5 from the Ultranova :?

Why is my APC40 sending MIDI notes to my Ultranova?

I'm doing a bit of custom mapping of my APC40. I've mapped the main record button to turn on a beat repeat on the master track. It works fine except when the Ultranova is turned on. In the MIDI map window the "note" that the main record button sends is A5. This is the note I hear on the keyboard. I ...

Re: APC 40 FAQs, features and questions

Sorry if this has been covered:

I read that any button/knob/whatever on the apc40 can be mapped to any parameter. I have a beat repeat on every track. I never use the record arm buttons and wanted to have each one turn it's respective beat repeat on/off.

I went into regular old midi map mode. I ...

Re: Audio Effect Rack: Parallel Effects Loop but no Series?

Anybody have any advice? I'm having the same problem. It seems when using the effects racks I can't figure out how to makes the effects run in series as opposed to parallel. Anyone??

Question about MIDI implementation chart and Live

I've got my Novation Ultranova working with Live for the most part but I'm a bit confused. I would like to use Live to switch presets on the Ultranova when I launch a new MIDI clip. I've been doing some research and I found the Ultranova's MIDI implementation chart:

Question about Tempo sync in Ultranova

I've set the Ultranova's global sync setting to USB. I've managed to get it to sync to Lives tempo as expected. However the tempo of the arppegiator doesn't synch to the global tempo (live's tempo).

How do I verify that live is sending clock data via midi?

Thanks!

Re: UltraNova can't control Live Intro using knobs

Just wanted to say I'm also having this problem. Live seems to be receiving midi info from the knob and even allows me to link a knob to a parameter but doesn't control the parameter once I exit midi map mode.
