Re: Copy and paste warp markers in live 8?

I just noticed that if I group 2 tracks together I can warp the group and it will apply to the tracks I have grouped. This is with two tracks of the same length. It's a drum track with one mic on the top of the drum and one mic on the bottom. I'm not sure how this would be handled in a larger group ...

Re: Disable record automation?

I thought about doing that also, and that's probably what I'll end up doing.

It'll be cool to have different versions saved anyway.

Thanks!

Re: Disable record automation?

I'm not sure I follow. My setup for live use will be guitar>Line 6 POD HD500>Live (via USB from POD). I'm using Touchable on the iPad as a control surface. When I record audio it writes over automation as well. I don't understand how turning off midi remote in will change that. Can you clarify ...

Disable record automation?

I do solo instrumental music and I use Ableton as my main DAW/workstation. I want to go out and do some live shows bringing Ableton with me to handle the backing tracks. While I'm performing I'd like to record the performances to capture improvisational moments and listen back to review the show ...

Re: Touchosc over USB?

Thanks so much for the replies. That's exactly what I needed to know. I have an iPod Touch, but Touchosc makes the iPad look pretty darn enticing :)

Touchosc over USB?

Forgive me if this has been asked before, but can TouchOSC be used over USB instead of WiFi? I'm getting ready to buy this software and it would make it much more portable if I didn't have to worry about always having a WiFi network.

Thanks!

Re: CPU usage super high on set

Well I really can't believe it, but it was the battery. As soon as I put the new battery in everything went back to normal. Weird. I don't know why not having a battery in there would affect CPU usage, I can't even begin to speculate, but it did.

At Least it's working now.

CPU usage super high on set

I've got a song that I've been working on with my band and all of a sudden that set has started spiking the CPU and playback is a garbled mess. I even tried freezing every track and still it won't playback properly. Up until the other day the set worked just fine. I tried a couple of other sets ...

Looper question

I'm just getting started with 8 and as a guitar player I'm really excited about the looper function. I'm a little bit confused on operating it and thought I'd see if I'm doing something wrong.

I have a PodXT Live and for now I'm just assigning one of the preset buttons to control the multipurpose ...

If you adjust the start and stop points in a clip, and set it to "tones", then yes you could be applying some time stretching to that audio file. And, yes, time stretching can create a warbling sound, even if the bpm remains fixed.

"Tones" mode is best for, well, tones. Not songs, not beats.

For ...

Did you warp any tracks ? If so, which warp mode did you use ?

What are your levels like ? If you are clipping this can cause such problems.

What processing did you apply. Too much compression/limiting can cause these problems.

Why are you recording 24/48? That requires a sample rate conversion ...

Render Quality issue

I've recorded a simple 8 bar loop with four audio tracks. I recorded it at 48k/24 bit. I'm rendering it to 44.1k/16 bit to import it onto a Boss RC-50.

I noticed once it was rendered that the sound quality was not good. It's hard to describe, but it had sort of a "warbling" sound if that makes ...

I'm also running into an issue here. I'm doing those steps but the mixer for each tack only gives me pre/post fx and post mixer as choices. It doesn't add any EZ drummer tracks. So all I get is the kick drum on every channel. Is there something in Live 6 that I'm supposed to setup so it will look ...

Live won't open !!!

I'm running Live 6 on OS X Leopard and it stopped working. It simply won't open anymore. It gets to the point where it says "scanning "custom" vst folder" and then quits. I then get the message asking if I want to report problem, ignore, or relaunch. I also have Live 7 demo installed and it does the ...
