Ableton Forum

I can only say something about the previous MacBook Air model (mid-2011). I had the basic 13" configuration (core i5 1,7 Ghz, 4 GB Ram, 128 GB SSD) and it had no trouble running ableton. Ofcourse, this is only a dualcore processor, so when you're using cpu-intensive plugins, don't expect monster ...

I'm currently working this way:

I make my mix and use freeG to make sure that my volumes don't go into the red zone :-)

After that, I put a Event Horizon on my master channel and put a freeG after that. I play with the treshold and look at the volumes in freeG. When everything stays under the peak ...

RMS is perceived loudness, as opposed to Peak which is too fast for the ears.

I also like the Sonalksis FreeG... Slightly off topic, but I find X-ISM is handy to check for inter sample peaks.

I've bought the Slate Digital FG-X plugin a while ago and I read the manual completely. Is it right that ...

BTW, does anyone have experience with Universal Audio Home Precision Limiter Plug-In?

I have it, like it a lot and it's my main limiter on the masterbus.
The mode button is very nice, this sometimes gives a subtle difference. But sometimes I don't notice the difference that much. It's not a ...

Damn, you need a UAD-2 DSP Accelerator Card to use that plugin?

This thing? http://www.uaudio.com/store/mastering/precision-limiter.html

Its bad ass. probably a lot less destructive than ozone

cheers

Maybe I should give that one a go and see how it works out for me :-) A ...

I'm willing to bet Ozone, and not the metering is the problem here.


You take a mastered track.. from a cd. pop it through ozone. ANd then broadcast the mix? But if your radio station, is like any other radio station, your mix is getting pumped and limited at broadcast as well. The tracks are ...

Hello all,

First a little introduction : I'm a DJ that mixes CD's (that are sold in store) and I also have my own radioshow on a local radiostation here in Belgium. At the moment I use Ozone 5 for mastering all my mixes. I only use the maximizer to pump up the silent parts of the tracks a little ...

I only use repitch if the tracks that I'm mixing are played at their original BPM! As soon as I'm about to change the tempo, I use the Complex Pro (it rocks!)

Yeah I see, but since I don't got M4L (and not really planning to buy it) I would like to know if there are other ways to do what I want. Any suggestions?

PS: I will download the tryout version of Max4Live and will play with it during the 30 days test period. But I don't think this will be the ...

Hi all,

I've been using Traktor software in combination with a normal mixer for a long time now and I've finally made a step towards Ableton. I really like the session mode to create my mixes for a local radio station (not live) but I would also like to use this software for live performances. I've ...
