Ableton Forum

I am running Ableton 10.1.30 on a 2019 MacBook Pro. As I have some external hardware, I am running this through an MX-1, and using this MX-1 as the audio interface via USB to my MacBook and Ableton Live. I am also using a Midiface 16x16 as the midi interface, with each instrument given it’s own midi...

I own Ableton 10.1.30, a MOTU Ultralite Mk3 Firewire, and I have just got a MacBook Pro 16" running OS X 10.15.7. I have installed the latest MOTU driver I could find (MOTU Audio Installer 1.6 (83634)), and when I boot up my laptop and switch on the Ultralite it automatically opens the MOTU Aud...

Do any of you run hardware and software together? Do you get any latency issues, with timing jumping around during playback? I have a hybrid system of hardware and Live 10, running on a macbook pro that had the maximum spec when I bought it new 5 years ago. I use a Roland MX-1 as the mixer for my ha...

I have even installed Ableton Live, the MOTU and MX-1 drivers on another partition and they work fine, as well as with the internal microphone, but for some reason on my main studio partition the internal microphone doesn't even register with Ableton Live. So frustrating. I'll email support. Thanks ...

But in this case the MX-1 is the sound card sending audio in, but it isn't registering in Ableton Live, just like the audio in from the MOTU box isn't registering in Ableton Live, which makes me think it is something else? Especially as when I use both the MX-1 and the MOTU box as audio interfaces t...

I don't think it is the interface, as my Roland MX-1 set up as the interface doesn't work either. Is it worth me doing a full reinstall of Ableton Live? https://i.ibb.co/87Fj9Dk/Audio-prefs.jpg https://i.ibb.co/xHSLyRc/Input-configuration.jpg https://i.ibb.co/gDdyBmr/Input-channel-settings.jpg

As you can see below the MOTU Ultralite and MX-1 appear to be set up correctly, but on the inputs for both of them the faders are locked to the left and greyed out, so I can't adjust them, and I can't click the Mute or Thru boxes either. https://i.ibb.co/Tv55NkG/MOTU-inputs.jpg https://i.ibb.co/DMYS...

I have tried this with another audio interface, this time my Roland MX-1, but it is not receiving audio from this either, and I have correctly configured all of the inputs in the audio preferences. I can only surmise that this is a problem with Ableton Live rather than the audio interfaces. Has anyo...

Sorry for bumping this, but I'm desperate to get to the bottom of this problem

I have a MOTU Ultralite Mk3 Firewire interface set up as an input and output device in the audio preferences of Ableton Live. All audio inputs and outputs are correctly configured in the Ableton Live preferences (see attached photo). When I connect mics or instruments to the inputs I can see the sig...

Do you any of have the Pioneer Toraiz Squid sequencer? When I connect my laptop to it via usb, open Ableton Live 10, and select the EXT button in the top left, it syncs to it, but the beat takes 8-16 steps to get tight to the rhythm, and then when it does hold time it is delayed quite significantly ...

I am trying to midi my DJS-1000 up to my hardware/software setup, via midi (the din plug, and/or the USB connection). Is it possible to midi it up or sync it up somehow so that it starts when I press play on my sequencer? I can do it manually, but that's not ideal. I have set it up on it's own midi ...

I have my TR-8 set up as the audio device, but it will not play in real time or record in real time. When I try to compensate for the latency with the Track Delay, I get it set right and then a few seconds later, or if I’m lucky a whole minute later it suddenly jumps out of time and needs resetting ...

I have bought the MKS50 PG300 programmer panel for CTRLR, but have absolutely no idea how to set it up as a vst in Ableton Live. I have read all sorts of stuff both on here and on the CTRLR forums, but just can not get it to work. I am running Ableton Live 9 on a macbook running OS X 10.11.6 (El Cap...

I controlled an MKS-50 and succesively a roland alpha juno 2 with ableton via ctrlr panel, the PG-300 emulation for 2 years until I sold them. You just need a midi track dedicated to the ctrlr plugin, which translates SysEx in CC. --> you'll need a multiclient midi interface or a dedicated midi int...
