Re: Any way to include MIDI Mappings when drag+drop a liveset ?

Yeah, I need this too. My projects are heavily midi-mapped. I also make big use of sends. It sucks that I lose both of these things when I try and save things to my library. Here's a simple example: I have two tracks used just for monitoring my guitar. They use the external audio effects, and even t...

Ability to change AU Plugin presets via PGM change messages

I'm using a midi-mouse to select one of 128 different FX Rack presets using a chain selector. That works GREAT. I'd LOVE the ability to somehow change the actual preset patch within the plugin actually selected in the chain. I'm using Soundtoys and haven't found a way to change their presets via MID...

Re: MIDI Mapping tracks / slots

hi Guys, we would like to know how to emulate the push or launchpad left/right arrow functions for next/previous track (slot) on our reloop keypad and FCB1010. we do not want to map each individual track to a switch or key but rather go through them sequentially. we have mapped the up/down arrows f...

Re: recording live set

Why not just play your liveset in session and record in arrangement view? I do this at every live show.

Re: how to record liveset during performance?

That sounds complicated. I will try to figure out what you are doing later ;-) Are you in session or arrangement view during live? Yeah. It is complicated to setup, but really really nice when it's all working. I have all of my preprogrammed stuff in arrangement view. I even preprogram my footpedal...

But why does piano keep sounding endlessly when Ped depressed? That is not well designed. Any solution for that problem?
"That is not well designed"

No one designed that. You've got a problem in your setup. Is the polarity switch on your pedal backwards? Midi feedback loop?

Re: how to record liveset during performance?

Yeah. I would use a separate device. Don't stress the machine you are performing on more than required. You don't want a disk-seek glitch.. That seems super unnecessary. Live is built for this. Just use the Arranger's global record. I've got my set setup in the Arrangement view with each track star...

Re: Midi-map button to clip stop & record for the selected track

I think I'm converging on something here. 1. How to trigger clip record/play for the selected track a) There's probably a solution using M4L b) The "Enter" key does this. Use Bomes or something else to emulate a keyboard from a footswitch c) Use a footswitch with an APC40. (Not sure if Pus...

Midi-map button to clip stop & record for the selected track

I've got a very complicated footswitch setup and I'm hoping to simplify. I currently loop my guitar going into a fender twin and a mesa. That requires two clip records and two clip stops for a total of 4 buttons. I also loop a mono synth and a poly synth. That's another 4 buttons. What I'd like to d...

Help making a footswitch that can do A, B, and AB via midi

I've been using a Roland FC-200 for a while now with Live and it works great. To get A(fender twin), B(mesa tremoverb), and AB to work, I use the FC-200 in midi note mode and use a device chain. This gives me access to each option, but it also uses up 3 of the 12 buttons on the device. I could switc...

Re: Push - Latency Issues

Unplug the push and use your keyboard as an input. The delay will still be there. 500ms is half a second BTW. That's a massive delay. I you're talking samples instead of ms, then that's about 10-12ms which should be relatively instant. No issues with latency using my Push with both external soundcar...

It's not the wrong forum if this bug was introduced in an earlier Live update and I want it fixed in the next GM release. In any case, the bug is from RME's 3.02 version of the Fireface800 drivers, not that I'm on 3.08; the routing is fine. Carry on.
