Re: Trying to set up Nord lead 2x into Abelton

I presume you've found an answer for this already but you just select your soundcard as the audio input/output decice, then you'll hear sounds when you press record on an audio channel in ableton. I was searching to try and find a way to select the nord lead 2x as a midi controller for ableton live ...

Re: Can't locate Kontact 4 programs in ableton's plug ins

Ya, that's where they were, I don't know if it's because pro-tools was the first DAW I had installed on this machine? It was under, Applications> Digidesign> Protools> Plug-Ins Alias. I eventually found one file that conflicted with ableton, Elastic Audio.dpm, so I deleted that and now it's not ...

Ableton for Mac crashing when trying to add Komplete 4 VSTs

Ok, so here's the deal. Firstly, I'm using a Mac, running OS X 10.5 I was trying to find the vst component files for a while and eventually realised they were located in my pro-tools folder. When I went to custom VSTs in ableton's preferences and searched for the pro-tools plug in alias folder, I ...

Re: Can't locate Kontact 4 programs in ableton's plug ins

Ok, so I eventually found the plug ins alias folder, which was in with my old pro tools folder. I selected custom VSTs and went to this destination, at which point ableton crashed. When I tried to start it up again it gets as far as "scanning custom VSTs" while booting up but then crashes again. I ...

@abletonmeraklisi

This will help to delete programs completely, although I haven't tried it out yet myself :)

Re: Can't locate Kontact 4 programs in ableton's plug ins

Ha ha... I'm not that bad!!! Cheers though, I'll have a better look later and maybe try installing a free vst, although I've been trying to keep clutter to a minimum as my hard drive's nearly full. Can you recommend any good free synth plug-ins?

Thanks for the help :)

Re: Can't locate Kontact 4 programs in ableton's plug ins

I tried rescanning, and it goes straight to that folder, but when I click it it says it's already selected, yet, I can't see any of the plug-ins I've installed. There's no list of available devices in the plug-in folder. I'm only guessing there's something I haven't done properly in the installation ...

Can't locate Kontact 4 programs in ableton's plug ins

Hi,

Ok, so I've been running ableton with Reason 4 for quite a while and just rewiring the instruments into ableton, that's all working fine. Today I got Native Instruments' Kontact 4 and installed Guitar Rig, Pro53 and Absynth, however when I tried to find them in the plug in devices window I ...
