Ableton Forum

PS--Yes, I also use a lot of effects in the music I play such as the EQ Three, Ping Pong, Flanger, etc.

On the contrary--Live is excellent for DJing. Ask Deadmau5. :) I actually was referred to it as a beginner because of its budget-friendly price and that I didn't have to go and get a CDJ or Technics turntables. I'm a serious hobbyist, but I'm just starting out.

I use the Launchpad as my mixer, as ...

OMFG, you guys! Holy buckets of replies! :)

Okay. To answer your questions:

I am using a PC, a brand-new 15" Dell Inspiron laptop.

The Launchpad is, as yet, my only controller--but I really like it a lot. :)

OMG, asdjdkkgjgjgfkdll, I have no clue what PCMCIA or expresscard slot means. I'm a ...

Ooh! I will check. What would you suggest for one that *does* have a recording device?

Just what it says on the tin. I'm a DJ, only having just started 5 months ago. I am needing an easy-to-use, budget-conscious 4-out audio interface for me to cue songs with my headphones. I am using Live Intro 8.2, and have the Launchpad as my controller.

Any suggestions? Thanks!

No. No other USB drives are installed while I'm using the Launchpad and Live Intro. But---here's the weird part, it didn't delay at all yesterday when I was practicing my set! LOL I used the program a few separate times yesterday and all was fine. Bizarre. The situation might have resolved itself ...

Something else: I am NOT a music producer, I am an amateur DJ who felt limited by the program I atarted with (Mixmeister7) and decided to purchase Live Intro on a recommendation from a friend who uses the full version of Live 8 for his live sets. What I am trying to do is record a good version of ...

I don't even know what a "troll thread" is. I am a human being who is very new at this. I am not purposefully putting up daft questions just to incite the ire of the forum. I honestly am having trouble with some of these concepts, as elementary as they may be to everyone else, and this reply plus ...

Don't worry, I've learned my lesson here. It seems that there are a fair amount of self-important, condescending know-it-alls on this forum and I really don't feel the need to take abuse from people I don't even know or care about. In the future, I'll just message Support directly. FYI: I am a SHE ...

See? It's this kind of pisstake that makes me not want to post in here. Everyone was a beginner once. Everyone asked seemingly 'stupid' questions. Forget it. I'll email Support directly.

Of course I know what 'arrangement view' is. But I don't want to use it, I want to use Session View. And I have read the manual--there isn't a way to do this in Session View?

Yo....

Okay. This is cheesing me off. I'm trying to record a mix--but obviously, I need more than one take. When I hit the stop key and then deactivate all my tracks and begin again by hitting the record key, as soon as I press play on my first track, somehow it triggers the previous recording to ...

Gosh, I am so sorry I haven't replied to this--for some reason I didn't get this email notification?!! I need to go back and check my settings.

Anyway....I actually do not have any version of Automap running. I didn't download it, at least I don't think I did. What should I look for? Thanks!!

Yes, The Resident Ableton Forum Div is back.

I am STILL getting a delay when I am switching from Session mode to User 1 or User 2 mode on my Launchpad. It is really jarring during my practice sets. What is the dealio here? I only have the launchpad and my headphones plugged in. Using 12% CPU, no ...

Well, crappity-crap. That's not good. *sigh*

Yeah--that is the type of feedback I was looking for. I've got Live Intro, not Live 8 or Max. It is, however, the most current edition. But yeah, I wanted LED feedback for the transients. Like, for example, I mapped the crossfader to be in User 2 mode ...
