Not upgrading till comping also here.

2019 Ableton. Most wanted feature by far. Makes a lot of difference for a lot of us and no single comment from the company...

I’m so disappointed about this. Arguably THE most needed feature by the majority of us, the most, bread and butter for anyone who does acoustic instruments recording. 2019 and still opening other DAW to track vocals...it makes me really sad since I love Ableton so much. I just can’t understand some ...

I also did not find how to use basic functions of music as Staccato, Portamento, Fermato, Slurs for example. You are talking about the basic functions of a PARTICULAR style of music. Luckily, music is much wider than that. For classical western music, maybe Ableton is not your best choice. You will...

Thanks for contribution of this workaround. I was looking and i would be happy when this will be implemented for a quick direct method to automate velocity on a single long pad note as you can do it for clips or tracks. I don't think it will ever happen. Live is about simplicity, and exponentially ...

Hi. Im doing a gig this Saturday. We are two musicians using Ableton Link to link two macbook pros. We create a network in OS Sierra and connect to it. It worked flawlessly in all our rehearsals. I have doubts about the reliability of this Mac OS network in a packed 1000 people venue. Does anyone ha...

Hi guys, just my 2 cents. I really think all our MacBook Pro fan problems are graphic related rather than processor/multi-core related. There are lots of posts about it and even though they did some fixes (forcing Live to use internal card only, which doesn’t work right) trying to mix a +20% cpu ses...

Thanks a lot for your help and thoughts, they helped a lot. Since I needed to toggle the loop on/off from the drumrack, the Robert Henke plugin did not help. I found quite a few midi hold m4l devices but this one does exactly what I need :

Hi everyone, I’m trying to loop a warped audio file in simpler (let’s say it’s a drum beat) , and have it loop infinitely so I can trigger it from a drum rack. The problem is, longest release time in simpler is 60 s so it will slowly fade out. How can I make the release infinite or bypass it? Any wo...

Hi, I am trying to convert a piezo mic input (audio) into midi notes with velocity sensitivity.
How can I achieve this with as minimum latency as possible in order to play it live?

Thanks a lot for your help, best..

The update is amazing. It grows on you. The more I use it the more I like it. I hope they leave the GUI just as it is. Echo is a beautiful plugin. I do agree on the comping. We need it and it is very important to have it. To me, this is a great v10. The subtle arrangement changes make live a really ...

This is such a needed feature. It is a pain to track vocals on live as it is, really slowing down the process. The loop workaround is just a workaround, clumsy and slow. And not everybody uses loop recording to track. I am constantly going back and forth to Logic because of this Ableton flaw, it mak...

Am I the only one really disappointed with the most important thing lacking in Live not showing up on Version 10? I am so tired of tracking in Logic and switching to Live.... I would have never thought they would be skipping this very much requested feature on a v10 release. Hope they include it soon.

Yes , both apps need to be open.
You'll get all the scales in order to play in Logic with the push. You could also color code any pad.
I think this is by far the best way to achieve what the user asked.

Hi everyone, it is possible. I'm on a Mac, so I'll explain on a Mac but it should be done on Windows using some sort of virtual MIDI cable. 1. Enable IAC Driver 2. Open BOTH Ableton and Logic 3. In Live, setup one midi track. Put input exclusively to Ableton Push live port and MIDI output to IAC, ch...

Both maschine and live user here. Ableton is rock solid, there must be something wrong on your side. While the DAW has a lot of flaws, stability is not one of them. 100% reliable. An SSD drive makes wonders in terms of performance, and at least for me, RME have been the best investment ever. Good lo...
