Returns / Sends Go To Tracks On A Summing / Mixing Board?

Hey -

Just curious about how you do this.

I was summing in the computer before, which would export my master with all of my return & send tracks added.

Because I am now using a summing mixer, I am going into Ableton Live tracks 1-2 to monitor and record my mix.

Does this mean that, because my ...

Re: Very Strange Sync Issue - Imported Track Lagging inconsistent playback speed

Thank You. I have never had this happen before. I think that it may have something to do with how I imported the comp track into the bass session that I was working on. I am going through in chunks and making minor bumps to get the bass to fit. I should not have to do this, though. Baffling!

Very Strange Sync Issue - Imported Track Lagging inconsistent playback speed

I have a very odd sync issue.

My song is effects heavy, causing crunchy audio at lower buffer settings, so I decided to export the song and record my bass track in a separate session. I exported the track as a Master. Played the bass. All Good.

However, when I tried to bring the bass track into ...

Re: Disable Automatic Automation In Arrangement View?


No need to thank me, Thank ableton for making a manual that has such info easily available and so clearly explained. Worth a read when you get the chance :)


Indeed. I should have gone back to that tome (Zee Manual). This is my 12th? year of steady Ableton Live use and I still get flummoxed ...

Re: Disable Automatic Automation In Arrangement View?

Right, so as I am editing tracks, chopping up bits... I keep accidentally selecting the red automation line and have to disable it over and over again.

Re: Disable Automatic Automation In Arrangement View?

Thank you for replying.

This is popping up when I am editing, not recording. For example, if I change the volume for a track on the mixer, suddenly an automation line appears in my track.

Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

Disable Automatic Automation In Arrangement View?

Hi All -

I am trying to make edits in Arrangement View, but whenever I change the Mixer or add plug-ins, a red automation line appears and I have to turn it off over and over, or I will accidentally adjust parameters.

Is there a way to prevent automation from automatically inserting itself into a ...

No Fancy Routing

Thanks for the reply. No fancy routing. It's simply a guitar into input 4. In Clip / Session view, it always records stereo, but in Arrangement view it shifted to mono and I am baffled as to why. It's happened before randomly.

Stereo Track Became Mono In Arrangement View When Recording

I have had this happen a few times but I am at a loss to explain why. For no apparent reason, the stereo track that I was working on has become mono. I didn't change any of the settings. Any advice on how to fix this when it happens? Thanks!

midi data will not record to track in Ableton Live

This may not be an issue with the Beta version. I'm not sure. Perhaps I made something inactive?

I recorded a midi drum track. When I try to add additional hits to my loop, I hear the sound but midi data will not record to the track. The track is armed. I can draw hits in, but if I run the track ...

Can I copy and paste loop markers?

I imported 7 samples, all recorded at the same time that are the same length.

Can I choose a loop in and out point on one of those samples and copy to each of the other 6?

Thanks everyone!

Mixing With Ableton Using Hardware

Do any of you use a lot of hardware eq's, compressors and limiters when mixing Ableton tracks?

Can you offer any basic advice on how to do this? I've been exporting my tracks to Pro Tools for mixing, but I'd much rather do it all in Ableton to save time.

basic alignment help needed

Hi Folks -

Recording and looping samples directly in Ableton is a piece of cake! No problem.

I am having massive difficulty bringing in Pro Tools samples and getting them to align and loop properly.

I set the bpm within the Sample window, but I can't seem to get the loop start and end points to ...
