Hi Folks, I'm struggling with latency when I play a MIDI keyboard into an Ableton instrument (e.g. Piano). I've just bought a new Dell XPS laptop with an Intel Core i7 13th Generation processor, 14 threads. I hoped it would finally allow me to play instruments using my Roland MIDI Keyboard controll...

So I'm confused about "dynamic" microphones and the push that doesn't supply phantom power. I thought if I bought a Shure SM58 which is dynamic (meaning doesn't require phantom power?) it would work with the push on High pre-amp. But it's pretty much inaudible. When I use my Focusrite and...

Hey everyone. So i was wondering. If i send signal from a track to a return track (lets say with a reverb with 100% Wet setting on it) i get a Wet signal i can then blend in with my mix. However, my Question: Is the signal coming back, ONLY the WET signal of the plugin (as in DELTA) ? Or is it SIGN...

There must be some type of background overhead causing the latency. This shouldn't be an issue in anymore in 2023. I think the push 3 is trying to do too much. IMO latency has seemed to actually gotten worse over the years. Focusrite Scarletts were pretty decent but I think after an upgrade they ad...

Some people are way more sensitive to latency issues than others. For most people anything under 10ms is usually unnoticeable. I can't tell you the last time I used direct monitoring. It's been several years as one Rapper was very sensitive to small amounts of latency. This guy had superb timing by ...

Oh well. After digging through Max For Live, that also appears to be a dead end. I am really starting to regret my purchase of Ableton Live. If there is no way to define external hardware, the program is pretty much useless to anyone trying to use it as a full featured DAW. Perhaps that is not Able...

Do you think Operator will ever be updated / upgraded? It's a very unique and powerful instrument, combining FM, additive and subtractive synthesis , but the GUI and workflow is outdated (IMO), to say the least. Looking at 10's Wavetable or the the upcoming 12's Meld & Roar, I can only imagine ...

:roll: Yes, the person from Ableton support I was in touch with has forwarded all my suggestions to the development team. This was back when they were still replying to messages and before I told them I wish to return my Push 3 standalone. I've also recommended they stop distributing the packs, Live...

Is anyone else experiencing a slight sort of ground noise in headphones in standalone with nothing playing? I think I can hear shutdown, too. EDIT: Yes, definitely hear a pretty constant low noise, and then shutdown consistently. There is a quick 3 pulse stutter of noise before shutdown. I also hea...

:roll: Hey, Thanks for all the replies. Just to make sure- I have Ableton live 11 lite. It states that it supports VST And I bought Melodyne 5 where it states it supports VST3 Does that mean I cannot use Melodyne within my Ableton? Regardless of the ARA. VST = VST 2.4 and VST3 so Melodyne will work....

We've just finished a multiple hour jamm sesh with a friend. He brought a guitar and his awesome nasty 30 plugin Ableton effect rack. There was also 6 different instruments in the session (some multisamples, some synths, played one at a time), backing track and a vocal effect chain track fed by a d...

Hi! Getting lots of use out of some Reverb Machine Ableton Packs. Really like that they're quick to deal with but have enough macro controls for a bit of tweaking. Any recommendations for other pack (racks not samples) vendors? Ta! They have a Dub machines delay pack that is pretty nice especially ...

Yes and no. The plug in itself works, but Ableton apparently refuses to implement ARA 2 support. Which is a major component of Melodyne. It's been one of the top feature requests for years, but we all know how much Ableton cares about things people actually want. ;) Yes. I was hoping 12 would have ...
