where can I learn all about Midi and Live? I am attempting to purchase a number of Midi files online

1) what type of midi files are best for LIve 7?

2) How do you "match up" the respective channels in the file with the appropriate instruments in Live?

thank you!

macbook pro
live 7
all the bells ...

I imported a .mp3 drum loop into my ableton live 7..

and there is a consistent brief pause between the beats, obviously destroying the overall rhythm...

i even converted the .mp3 to .aiff and to .wav..but there same problem occured..anyone have any ideas what is wrong here?

thanks

The most basic question of all..how do I save my Live files as MP3's?

power supply comes directly from the laptop..machine works fine...light is on..but does not show up on computer..j

hey thanks for your help..no, i have a simple standard xp operating system...the software installation says that "you must reboot your computer" for the settings to take effect..but when i do this there is no firewire present....jim

Can anyone out there help me discover why my gateway laptop is not recognizing the drivers for my m-audio firewire 410...? I have installed the drivers many times, turned the laptop off, plugged in the firewire, and restarted the laptop..but the drivers are never there..

Anybody?

i have reinstalled my firewire 410 interface several times, but LIve 6.0 will not read it, anyone know why? thanks !
