i agree it seems like touch strip midi mapping should be part of push setup screen (if it is not already) check box: map push touch strip to drop down: pitch bend mod wheel cc then for cc a text box to type in the cc value THIS! Okay, Ableton? I gave you $600 for a MIDI controller. Now do what this...

Thanks, man.

Sometimes it works great, sometimes it doesn't. It makes no sense to me.

I have noticed that sometimes, not all the time, I will go to Edit, Record Quantization, and then pick a value. Then, after I record, the part recorded will not be quantized. At all. At ANY value. Then I tried to quantize a MIDI part and I hit Ctrl+Shift+U, quantized to 16th notes, and SOME notes qu...

Please help me out here. I have never had trouble saving an instrument rack by dragging it into the browser. When I try this in Live 9, a circle with a line through it appears (like a no smoking sign), indicating that I cannot drag the instrument rack to the browser. I don't understand. Is there a n...

Check out this video of the Live 9 preview event.

At 11:35 Dennis automates the rate parameter. What the fuck?! Does he have a special version we don't? This just pisses me off.

Yeah, please tell me this is going to be fixed. As far as I know, the only parameter that does not save for your project is the rate. I tried to automate this hoping that a recorded automation would save into the project, fixing the problem. However, it is the one parameter in the MIDI LFO that I CA...

What blows me away is that you are supposed to hold ALT, click the envelope, then drag it in whatever direction you need to until you get the desired curve. There is even a change to your mouse arrow to indicate that you are holding ALT and that Live is ready for you to create some curves in your en...

http://en.wikiaudio.org/Ableton_Live:Clip_automation I am trying out clip automation using the MIDI LFO, which I have never had a problem with in Live 8, and the only parameters that I have an option to automate are MIDI parameters, as in pitch bend, hold pedal, mod wheel, etc. Is the MIDI LFO autom...

I have the release version. I don't use any betas.

Yeah, my MIDI LFO's sync rate isn't saving in this new project I've been working on, so I have to change it ever time. It's been defaulting to 48th notes despite how many times I change it and save. Is this a problem with all Max For Live devices and are there any work-arounds that will allow me to ...

The more waveforms, the better, IMO.

First, there are a LOT of musicians that LOVE surround sound and prefer their music to be mixed that way. It is better in every way period. I'm one of those. Second, that's the point. They are complementary. Meaning you NEED another $500+ program like Cubase to achieve certain things like surround s...

It's simply two important features that Ableton I have hoped for, yet haven't heard anything about when reading/hearing about the updates coming with Live 9. If they are working on betas for 64 bit support, that makes me happy. Still, the competition has had both of these features for quite some tim...

I think this is annoying as well. I use an electronic drum kit to trigger drum sounds from live as well as VSTs like Superior Drummer and Battery. I had to go into my drum module and change the midi notes by an octave for every trigger. If I interface with a DAW that is NOT wrong by an octave... Wel...

I love Ableton Live, don't get me wrong. I think it's amazing. But the competition (Cubase and Pro Tools) is kicking Live's ass when it comes to certain things. Actually, they have been for a long time. Given that it's the 21st century and 64 bit operating systems are a standard and 5.1 surround sou...
