Ableton Forum

No one?

I guys, I don’t know how to put this I have an akai mpk261 and the first fader of the MPK controls the first fader of ableton (as the other eight), but if i try to map a synth, I can’t map the MPK fader to the synth, it still controls the first ableton track The other controls that are not used by a...

Try it the other way around then, with Live as the master. Set the MPC to external clock. It's also worth asking Akai, as it's their product that's having an issue. They have a support area http://community.akaipro.com/akai_professional and also a Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/AkaiPro Send...

Try to use external instrument and play the midi sequence directly into the MPC and then save the sequence to disk. Yes but there will be a lag between when I hit play in Ableton and rec in the MPC, I already tried recording MIDI directly in the MPC but the timing is screwed If I do more attempt I ...

my mistake.. I can get the cc messages into the MPC too...

well.. so I think I'll stick with that workaround.. even though it means exporting two times.......... using two different daws...

I already do that, import in Pro Tools, export, and the MPC load it fine.... except I lose all the control change automations... I don't understand why...

IS it Live that doesn't export control changes?

Are you using external instrument ? What do you want .midi file for? Drums? What is one the midi track in love you are trying to record? What's the difference between using external instrument and sending the midi using a midi out? The point is that if I want to record midi from Ableton to the MPC ...

Hello I'm trying to import an Ableton midi file (ultra simple, just to check, notes, no automations) into the MPC2000xl and I'm not able to do this When I load the Ableton midi file into the MPC I get "Error at 0000:7E21" and the MPC freezes and I need to turn it off and on again Why that?...

i typically listen to my vocals with the audio in the background of my headset so that i'm not laying vocals over silence ffs therefore direct monitoring is insignificant. fixed so the Pros know what i meant. :roll: have mercy. good luck with your wish list. :arrow: I'm sorry if I sounded rude or a...

look man, the OP is a pro or sort of (that's easily understandable by his posts) and he is using Ableton as a pro would do Meaning a pro would ever record monitoring from the speakers (unless in certain occasions and placing the mic out of phase with the speakers). That is because the bleeding from ...

i would imagine that you could find several members of the forum (at least) that have successfully made music without the need for direct monitoring; therefore, "crucial" is subjective. Yes, I didn't mean that, but depends on the way someone is working, if you do everything using VI ITB a...

lot's of subjective opinions too.

Please expand. Are you referring to the technical part or to the rant? Because the rant is obviously a subjective opinion. The tech stuff is not.

How does monitoring via the direct output have anything to do with being able to PLAY an instrument? :lol: You think it is funny? Actually morerecords has been teased by all the crowd here but he is actually right. He doesn't have to explain why he wants to monitor DIRECT because that's the right c...

Thanks, is there any free alternative or code I can put on the terminal?
