Synth sweep - How?

Hi,
This is not really a Live specific question, but you all seem like a friendly helpful bunch who know plenty about making music...
I'm trying to recreate a sample of a synth lead that gradually sweeps (over about 15secs) from one note to the octave above. I have the Arturia Moog Modular and NI ...

Where r the Impulse presets stored?

Hello,

I'm trying to share some Impulse presets I've made with several other Live users.
Unfortunately I can't find them! I've looked in the Ableton folder in Program Files (I'm on a PC), but they're not there.
Anyone else know?

Thanks,
shortwave

Thanks guys.
I'm on a PC.
Yes it does have to be virtual, and I'm only really interested in hearing about samplers that people have had a good experience with in Live!
Thanks, will go see if I can download a demo of Shortcircuit.
Would be grateful for any more suggestions. Don't seem to be having a ...

IMO those methods dont really cut it;

1. This can only work if you're not using any vst or vsti plugins, as these are unavailable when Live is used in Rewire mode. I dont actually know about pro tools because I don't own a copy, but in Nuendo you can't record the incoming rewire channels. You'd ...

There are problems with the above 2 methods;
1. There's no way to import a Live session into Pro Tools
2. When Live is used as a rewire slave, you can't use vst plugins in Live, so if you're song contains any, this is not an option for you.

Probably the only way to do it is to solo each track and ...

Assigning the keyboard

Hi,

I don't seem to be able to assign the keys 1234567890 to trigger clips.
Or the slightly weird keys (;'#,./[] etc.).
Also, the F keys are hard wired to channel mutes.

Why the restrictions?
Its so quick and easy to assign keys and people use this software in such different ways AND there are ...

Triggering vsti's from the computer keyboard needs a rethink

Hi,

If you open a vsti synth and play it using the computer keyboard, great. If you already have the keyboard assigned (eg. to trigger clips), not so great. Live tries to do both, but there's a long pause now before you hear a note from your synth.
Has anyone tried this out?

We need some way to ...

Thanks for the advice. Yet another volume control is often easy to miss!
Sadly in this case, its not the answer, I've just re-checked it all and theres nothing left to turn up!
Sticking a multiband compressor over the master helps keep it all as loud as it can be, but its not really a solution.

Laptop plays too quietly

I have an Edirol UA-20 USB, my friend has an Egosys U24 USB soundcard.
They are both meant to give -10 unbalanced line level outputs, but when I plug them up to my Allen + Heath DJ mixer, the Edirol reads over 12db lower (using the same laptop playing the same thing).
I have found this makes it ...
