Ableton Forum

i've been thinking about getting into modular lately, it really is all the buzz, but i've always been primarily a digital guy. cost prohibitive i'll probably just end up sticking with VCV, and after mucking around in that program today I came back to Live and instantly created much more interesting ...

this is the current implementation

this is kind've a funny one, but useful i think, and apt since the introduction of lives nested groups it's simply carrying over a pretty standard functionality of the arrangement view, into the session view it could apply to groups, but also just any multiple selected clips in session a simple way ...

Ableton is as good a place as any, maybe the best lol All i can say is get comfortable with the in-built synthesizers and samplers and effects in ableton play and have fun and try not to think too much about it do you understand synthesis? if not, maybe try searching for beginner synthesis or learni...

i agree 256 is not enough, maybe for a secondary chill-out laptop but not your main system

wow nice video its hard to say what's going on there without knowing the full story... i dunno if it helps to say something dumb like 'tame the signal'... but in some ways its very true. think about a completely open oscillator, just pure tone. it's harsh and raw, but when you start to apply filteri...

Yes thats what i mean

i will explore those options and report back

I might play around with some Max kit there may be a way sort this through that.

Is Honey mapper any good?

yeah totally

Its crazy once you get back into Ableton that it really does operate in a certain paradigm. Sure, it has Push and heaps of great instruments and effects But then theres these funny little situations My 2c: Track Macro’s should apoear in the Channel strip, like Sends. They could be hidden like everyt...

i guess i am thinking something akin to Elektron's performance page on the Analog Four.

You can map something to any of your tracks to any one knob, and so on for the 8 knobs.

is there a 'performance page' for Ableton Live or have i just been in the Elektron world for too long...

sometimes when i'm using live i can't help but feel i want 'global' control over certain settings. send fx are one thing... but do you wish certain controls were available in the channel strip that accessed your various parameters in your device chain? maybe i'm missing something... how can i access...

I really love the way theyre using the expanded device view to show all these cool visualisations

The note chase thing, i remember a nice DeSantis tip from a few years back, to essentially latch a note or chord within the clip loop brace, creating an infinite note. Really nice trick for long drones and stuff like that. Will this new chase feature impact this technique? Triggering the note again ...

Ok.

I don't have a central samples folder. I use things from other Ableton sets mainly.

I still think there's room for a preference that takes care of all of this.
