If you have a main piano chord part where would you pan it? To one side ? It sounds weird to me on one side. Or do you have centre or spread wide?

I’ve been reading about mixing etc and I noticed there’s a lot of focus on the bass being mono. In a video I watched it was shown how to do it but what I noticed was that the example they showed the bass track had two channels. It looked like two tracks in a group to me. But in my project I don’t se...

In abletons sample library theres a lot of loops etc. How are these meant to be used? Do you just drag them to the track or can they be used as a drum rack and if so how? thanks

Faders are post effects. TotalMix is post Ableton, so even further down the audio line. You need to go the other way, towards the source of the problem. If the problem is before your effects chain, you can do two things. 1. Turn down the gain of your audio clips in the Clip Window of each clip. You...

This is not possible unfortunately.

would come in very handy when recording a dj set because I could pause and start again where I left off but cant do that which is a pain

Is there any way to stop the clip then when I hit play again it plays from where it started instead of back at the beginning which is what it currently does?

Im recording a dj mix from session to arrangement and I am using auto filter and various other effects on the clip. I noticed that the meters on the effects are clipping. But I dont understand how to reduce the signal. I tried pushing the faders down which makes no difference and I tried pushing the...

What's the controller, mate? What specific VSTs are you trying to control?

Is ok I fixed it. I couldnt see my controller in the drop down menu but then i found it.

I cant seem to get the parameters of various instruments, plugins etc to map to my controller knobs. Im following the instructions. First I click on midi, then click on the parameter in ableton then move knob on controller then click midi again. Something is happening but its not what I want to happ...

Im trying to understand how to use air music structure as multi timbral and route the different layers to different tracks. This video is shown in pro tools which I havent used for a long time. Can anyone please explain to me how I can do this in ableton?

Right-click the group track an select "Un-group" from the pull down menu.

Thanks. Didnt realise there was an option for ungroup there. Weird, I was sure I looked but now youve mentioned it I can see it.

Can you provide a screenshot?

Hey I couldnt figure out how to upload a pic. It just puts two of these [IMG]. I sorted this in the end anyway. Had to doubleclick in the clip window then the automation line appeared

I have two tracks as a group and Im trying to ungroup them. I drag one out in arrangement view and it works but when I try to frag the second one out it wont let me and I get the symbol of a circle with cross through it ie - cant do. How do I do it?
