I really dig what I can do with Live as a front end into a clean power amp and cabinet. I'm actually using Live as both my bass and keyboard rigs these days, often simultaneously too.

I hear you guys on the guitar- synth lust though. Are any of you guys using pitch->MIDI conversion at gigs? It ...

I think this has to do with the Global Launch settings at the top of the screen. If it say "1 bar" or "2 bars" (something) then it will flash and start at the next bar (or 2) start. I set mine to none or zero (sorry I'm not looking at it right now).

I read earlier or maybe somewhere else, that you need to upgrade either the eprom chip or firmware to get the pedals to act like stomp boxes, On/Off. Otherwise, it's just On and you have to do something like I did, program one pedal for no effects and use that to "turn off" the effects.

Thanks peeps for the reply. Now that I've figured it out, I'll explain what happened for those who might be trying the same thing. Easy once you know, a pain in the a$$ is you don't. My explanation assumed (BAD!!) that you would understand that my automation envelopes were attached to the clip, and ...

I have been reading a bit on dummy clips/tracks, but am not quite clear yet and not sure if that will do what I want, especially since I'm playing from the Arrangement view, not Session. Unless I figure out / decide to play in Session view, which may not be possible (don't know yet) I will have to ...

Hi, I have recorded vocals, in Arrangement, which has an envelope to modify the Reverb level at different points in the song. Does anyone know how I can use this envelope to affect my vocals when singing a live performance (assuming I'm singing in time with the recording)? I've tried switching to ...

I can only answer one part of this. You can Insert Time Signature Changes in the Arrangement view (up at the top where the numbers are, click Create) but to change in Session, I'm not sure. You can make a new clip a different time signature but I don't know if that affects the overall time; haven't ...

Because he has trained himself to follow the guitar player, who also can't follow a click track.

Hi, I can't find anything on "dummy clips" in the manual. I'll search the forum too, but if anyone can point me to some instructions, I'm trying to effect a live performance with automation envelopes.

Hi,all. Hope someone is still following this thread. This does sound like stuff I want to do too. It would be great to get all our songs in one set if possible, but another question I have, which may mess everything up, is: I am thinking of using In-Time to make Live follow the band (since my ...

Seriously? You're going to call me out? What a dick.

I lol'd. I gave a razz emoticon. My post was done with a touch of humour, but also with serious intent. There are DOZENS of EXCELLENT fcb threads here. The point was that it couldn't hurt to do a simple search.

I think I'm going to start a ...

Has anyone here ever used the Behringer FCB1010 MIDI Foot Controller? I would like to know if I can set the TAP TEMPO up via the foot controller when I am performing live with a band (with a drummer)and tap the beat to that of the drummer? I also would like to know if it is possible in using the ...

Hey people,

I wrote a remote control surface mapping for the fcb 1010, check it out at
http://bl0rg.net/~manuel/fcb1010-mappings/

Supports automatic mapping of tracks, as well as "record into next empty slot" functions. Automappping of contorl pedals as well

First, I want to say to this ...

I ... power the FCB1010 via midi bus power.


How do you do that? Not that I mind too much using the power cord, but did you have to add some hardware? Also, since I just bought an FCB1010 to launch backing tracks while playing live gigs, do I send a Program change, Control Change, or Midi Note ...

I'm struggling with this too. The manual says the BOTTOM track is the master but I can't get it to affect the other tracks either way. And the manual I have is not very clear on how to keep the new warp on the track (once I figure that out) so I can move it back to the Session view. Also a little ...
