On top of the main critical issue of Live merging MIDI streams between tracks to channel 1, Live's own MIDI Monitor device doesn't even seem to accurately monitor MIDI from a plugin on another track. For example, sending notes C1 and D1 (on the 1 and 3 of a 4/4 bar, respectively) explicitly on ...

Very frustrating that this (merging MIDI to channel 1 when routing between tracks) still isn't addressed in Live 12.

Even if the input channel is limited to what channel is coming into the track, what actually goes out is invariably MIDI channel 1. I think that's what the OP and the others describing this issue are referring to.

Anyone know if this is sorted out in Live 11?

Dude, give it a few more days, Push 2 is amazing, that can't possibly be a deal breaker!


I agree with Mr. D.

As disappointing as it was to find this out, it’s definitely not THAT big of a deal in comparison with all the perks of Push..
I agree that it is amazing in many ways and that this ...

Yeah, that's kinda weird that you can't do that, hopefully that functionality gets added ASAP!

Thanks for responding. And yeah, weird. Unfortunately to me, it's also unacceptable and Push is being returned.

Just got a Push 2... Is it really not possible to transpose/nudge notes in a MIDI clip up/down by semitones or octaves from the controller?

If not, it just goes to show that extensive pre-sale research amounts to nothing when you run into such things within the first five minutes.

Am I right in thinking that this is not fixed in Live 10?

Will this ever be fixed?

I want this too. It drives me mildly crazy have to enable it every time. I appreciate that some users would not want this, but the default could stay as is, just with an option for Live to recall the previous session's Link setting or for Ito be saved with the set or anything hat means it is always ...

Mister, just starting to notice this as well on 9.1. Driving me crazy. It's spiking randomly and causing playback to stop for a split second, though my system activity monitor isn't showing anything out of the ordinary.

At the moment, the only VSTs I'm running are Massive, Sylenth, mau5ynth, and ...

I'm noticing this with Live 9.1 now... Is anyone else still experiencing these seemingly random CPU spikes? I certainly need to test more, though, to see if I can find the specific source of the issue.

Well, it kind of worked and did what it said on the tin, but isn't much good for MIDI software use, as only Device Manager reports the new custom name. MIDI software still display the generic Windows "USB Midi Controlller" name.

Has anyone got any ideas how to get this to work on Windows 8? Specifically, 8.1 Pro.

I tried as above, but when installing the modified driver, it throws an error and states it could not find the specified file.


Edit: Some further attempts yielded nothing, so I had one last go at finding some ...
