Re: Why Am I Getting Clipping?

It might help if you explained what you're doing with these files. Are you creating a DJ mix? ....and as someone else said, if they're too loud - turn them down! Yes. I'm creating a DJ mix. I realise I can turn the tracks down. I don't know why you'd ever bother pointing that out. But, as mentioned...

Re: Why Am I Getting Clipping?

Ouch!

No that doesn't work either. If the tempo isn't perfect, it makes the track jump.

Jesus. I never realised how hard it was to get this right. Some of my clips are peaking at over 6db. This means

Re: Why Am I Getting Clipping?

Is the answer to start with the tracks warped in order to queue them, and then turn off the warping while the track is playing and the global tempo has been adjusted to match the track?

Re: Why Am I Getting Clipping?

So, I've just realised that changing the warping type makes a big difference to volume.

Which warping type should I use to play mastered tracks? Which is the safest volume wise?

All the tracks have been mastered at fairly consistent volumes, but the warping is throwing the volume right out...

Re: Library Missing

I've got the problem again today even though there are no files in the database folder.

I'm stuck again, and support just told me to reboot my computer.

Re: Library Missing

Oh god - why have you done this to Ableton?

I was so looking forward to squeezing in some time to write music.

Why can't rebuild the library anymore?

Re: Library Missing

Also, if I click on "Packs", I can see all my installed packs, but I can't see anything under the packs - i.e. they don't open up in the tree.

I can still use my instruments though if I open an existing project.

Library Missing

My library has disappeared.

My instruments, sounds, etc. all gone!

I'm on Live 9.It used to be that you could rebuild the library, but I can't find that feature anywhere.

Help, I can't do anything right now!

Re: Grooves Missing

silversurfer60, it turns out that you are right!

They were just in a different place than they were in 8. So this works well on the PC version. I'll check to see if they are there on the Mac version as well.

Re: Crossfade

So, basically Ableton left pretty much the most important control for DJ'ing off their flagship performance controller.

Why?

Re: Grooves Missing

Thanks.

In other words, are you saying the Ableton 9 doesn't include any grooves? Why not?

Can't I just download the grooves from somewhere? I don't have Ableton 8 installed anywhere.
