Kinda skimmed the specifications, but sounds like s/n is not the real problem. It's gating his mic when it's not in use. You could try the stock Gate effect in ableton for paper ruffling and such. You also probably don't want an agreesive compression setting if sniffles and performance are now on a ...

Re: Channel EQ or EQ8?

Right, so when do you make the transition from one to the other? What order do you put them in? I'm not asking because I don't know what I would do. I'm asking because you made a stand in order to distinguish between them, but it's a bit unclear when you move your work from one to the other. Why not...

Re: Assigning Macro Buttons on Push(2) in Device Pages?

ah right, they're referred to as "upper display buttons", and the encoders are just referred to as encoders... Yeah, live.banks object is where I began this pursuit. I though there might be a more tidy way to map the pages of a device by make a button be a button. But if that's how the coo...

Re: Assigning Macro Buttons on Push(2) in Device Pages?

What do I owe this honor of the very same S4racen on the Cycling74 boards, not to mention I have followed your lead on a number of solutions for Push and Ableton. It's seemingly a modest ask to think that the macro buttons on a push when in Device mode would bank with the macro knobs, doesn't it? I ...

Assigning Macro Buttons on Push(2) in Device Pages?

Hi! Complete greenie coming through: recently discovered the live.banks patcher/object (please feel free to correct my nomenclature), and this has inspired my use of the Push in more composition. This object allows for parameters in a m4l device to be assigned to the macro encoders in banks. However...

Re: Channel EQ or EQ8?

Resurrecting this thread to offer some merits of Channel EQ. As I mentioned prior, it's great for getting something to a presentable stage while swiftly returning to creative decisions. Additionally, this production channel on youtube describes a philosophy and perspective better than I can: https:/...

Re: Browser opens unwittingly when I click on something else?

So if you look at your reply in 2017 and consider that I was probably living with this annoyance for a good year before I threw my hands up in the air and stopped blaming myself, it's 2021 now which means I've tolerated this low-level nagging peculiarity in Live for 5 years now...

Re: Browser opens unwittingly when I click on something else?

Stromcraft, it still happens to my sessions in ableton 11. And I know it isn't a keyboard assignment, because it'll happen in sessions that I open with SHIFT held down, bare bones nothing assigned. And I know it isn't a track pad issue because I've had more than one computer, albeit one that's aging...

Re: Syncing Warp Marker to Locator

Hi, If you are already in arrangement, what about creating a clip at that location marker, and then scrubbing the clip playback start location to where the transient/event is in the clip? If it's really falling off the grid and you still want to keep it unwrapped, you could split the clip into separ...

Re: I want to send the audio signal to a return track based on the length of time a note is held down.

m4l: You could create another track with midi in to envelop shaper with a long attack to the main knob of a multimap device. then map the device parameters to the sends and give them separate ranges. alternatively, you could just explore the evolving parameters of the synth within the state in which...

Re: Channel EQ or EQ8?

Thanks for circling around to this, folks. We are of like minds. Maybe they want to think of adding an UPGRADE button to the Channel EQ that converts someone's current settings to the EQ8. That way they can be in the moment (show a client where the mix is headed for example. Or start a live looping ...

Re: Channel EQ or EQ8?

Terekith, why do you think they put the shelf at the frequencies they did? 100, with a slight shift for the low. I do like the additional low-pass on the upper end. 20 down to 8K into cranial pitches makes sense. If I ran out of macros on a m/s (which I completely agree with, btw) grouped EQ8, where...

Channel EQ or EQ8?

They have around the same CPU draw. Light in either case. Which do you think is a better channel strip eq for iso instrumentation tracks? Trying to assemble my default audio track. Admittedly 8 bands is likely overkill for carving out a good eq. But I have a pretty good group device that has most of...
