Ableton Forum

Hi all,

I'd like to share my free tunes with the Live community, and would love to get some feedback. You can stream and download them at http://soundcloud.com/fractal-dimension/sets/free-releases .

For further information on me an what I'm up to, visit my website at http ...

The customized Ableton Linux distro sounds good in theory, but making Live open-source is highly unlikely to happen. I'm developing mostly open-source software for a living, so yes, you can actually make money from it. But open-source fans need to understand, that it's just one of the countless ...

Oh well, it's really not that bad, I guess I was just pissed by the higher performance of the newer Macs.

1.) Ableton Live CPU Meter % 72
2.) Laptop/Desktop? Make/Model? Apple MacBook Core Duo 2.0Ghz
3.) Operating System? Mac OS X 10.4.11
4.) Ableton Live version? 7.0.7
5.) CPU Make, Model, and Speed? 2 GHz Intel Core Duo
6.) Amount of Ram? 2 GB
7.) Soundcard (and driver version if you know it ...

Q - How can I enjoy use Live 'live' when I cannot control the parameters I want to control?

A - Well it's a drag actually. I can do without Essential Instruments (ironically) but this is becoming a big issue.

come on Abes!! this is not a feature, this is a bug fix!

My thoughts exactly. It might require some refactoring or a design overhaul of some components, but still this is a bug that needs to be addressed. Even if in a point release, but certainly in version 7.

As I read on the web the updated AU spec from Leopard allows a plug-in to have multiple MIDI outputs. This would allow the use of MIDI AU plug-ins for all kinds of use cases: step sequencer, remote control of external MIDI devices, etc.

Please consider implementing MIDI output for AU plugins in ...

What workarounds? I searched the forum but couldn't find any. Could you give me links to them?

Thanks in advance!

A MIDI-controllable step sequencer would be very handy!

Rest assured, they will (they do)...

I already wrote a post in the Feature request forum and an email to Ableton support a couple of months ago. This is a must, even if it delays the release of v7.

I agree, Ableton should go for an all-inclusive solution with effects covering everything from sound design to amateur-level mixing & mastering. I'm not asking for the same quality as expensive third-party plugins, but a decent limiter and sidechain compressor would be nice.

This is a real showstopper for all Novation Automap Universal users.

I just recently ran into this limitation with Automap Universal, Cakewalk Rapture and Live. I emailed the tech support, but they couldn't tell when this will be fixed. It's on their list, so eventually this will be fixed at some point.
As for the workaround, the best I could think of is to MIDI ...
