Am selling my Live 9 Suite as I don’t have time to use it. Contact me on mb6582@outlook.com if interested.

Thanks!

Theoretically, should real chords entered into midi sound exactly the same as if entered through one of the preset midi effects such as "house to go for"? I've been trying to enter chords in myself with the same values as the effects to help me learn some chord intervals but the sound is c...

I remember dealing with this question a lot when I started making music and I feel I wasted much of time by listening to other peoples convictions. The best thing for me to do at the time would have been to use presets and just write the song. Instead I would spend hours tweaking a synth so I could...

I don't myself think that using presets are cheating but I am finding that I'm learning more about making sounds at this stage than I was when using and editing the presets in Analog. Your right that the presets are a good reference point for studying how to make sounds from the neutral/base setting...

I'm currently going through each synth on Ableton pretty much one by one, starting with Analog and am trying to learn best by trying to make all sounds without using preset sounds. It means I'm making less stuff and it's taking me longer but the reason is that I want to learn synthesis and learn the...

Recently started using Push, I'm a t a kind of beginner stage and getting Push has coincided with me making some good much better stuff over the last couple of weeks. Coincided being the key word here because I've been a bit disappointed with Push. The progress I've made has been down to study and p...

Sorry, massive mistake, was doing something wrong with Push (am still new to it). Please ignore!

I had issues (both in Live 8 and 9) with adding my samples to the sample library. In the current version, I can only add my samples to the "places" section, therefore all the stuff in the sample library are Ableton samples. Is this as it should be? It doesn't seem right to me. The most fru...

Done, Tim. Thanks

Still having trouble getting the whited out track to play anything. Any ideas?

It LOOKS horrible...

Thanks for pointing that out, I probably did as I had been deactivating some midi clips using 0!

Had an issue this morning where my TOM track went white both in the arrangement and instrument sections. It's also not playing any sound. The record arm of the track also looks disabled and is unresponsive. Looks simple to fix but not sure how. Could anyone advise please?

Thanks Joey!
