Thanks, that was exactly what I was looking for. I didn't realize you could automate the parameter selection of the device chain zones. That creates an even more streamlined approach to the way I make music. Thanks again.

Switching through multiple instruments in a rack...

I am trying to figure out how to map a setting to switch instruments within a rack. The Dennis Desantis live pack has a drum set rack with a switch kit function mapped to a macro knob, but I don't understand what it's controlling to be able to mimic the control setting. Anyone know how to do this?

UVI Engine Error, Live won't load Battery

I am hoping someone has dealt with this or knows how, but when I try to assign my plugin folder, Live won't load Battery 3. I get a message that says "UVI Engine Error, Could not load plugin, Error ID: 2". I've tried reinstalling both Live and Battery, trashing my preferences file, and renaming my ...

Swapping channels per midi control?

Does anybody know how I can assign the channel select function to a knob on my midi controller or does it have to be button only. What I'm trying to do is have the turn of a knob change through my instrument and audio channels so I don't have to use my mouse.
Thanks

Problem with Plugin Deactivation

I upgraded to Live 6 and was trying to run Battery as a plugin when Live just froze up. I had to terminate the program and upon restarting a window popped up telling me it was going to deactivate Battery as a plugin. So I've tried reinstalling both programs and have the most recent updates of both ...

For Sale: Battery 3

I accidently won two auctions on ebay for the same item and have an extra copy of Battery 3 for sale. It is factory sealed and I got it for only $120 bucks, which is all I am trying to get for it (plus shipping). It is a great sampling instrument and I think it makes for a better/cheaper version of ...

I don't know if it's the same process as that guy on you tube, but I set up 4 sets of 16 cells (64 cells with different samples or some assigned to multiple notes) in Battery all assigned to different notes. 4 scenes on the PadKontrol are assigned to the cells and I just switch scenes to get the ...

I tried to figure out the same thing, but I gave up and bought Battery 3. Way worth it. You then can just setup different scenes within your PadKontrol and switch them to get different drums. My goal was to get Live to work like an MPC. I didn't want to sit with my mouse switching settings, so with ...

"2. I had such a hard time getting that korg librarian editor to work - it always said "Device Inquiry Error". Turns out you have to set the midi configuration to a specific value and then it'll work perfectly. For those having the same problem:

By default, the padkontrol for some reason is not on for remote use. You have to go into your Live settings and just turn it on. I found that weird though. Hopefully you've figured it out by now though. Anyone having luck with the librarian software? I'm not.

I think the point is that you don't have to pitch shift if you're warping your tracks properly.

When a KFC commercial has "Sweet Home Alabama" with scratching and heavy drums over it, you know it's dead.
