Recording Audio Problem - Levels only going half way...

Howdy. I was recording audio (guitar) last week no problems. But i just plugged her in again, and the audio level bars in Live 6 are only going like half way up... no matter how much i crank up my guitar's volume knobs, the sound just gets more distorted, not louder. It's like its peaking. Its only ...

How to make instruments sound "thicker"?

Hey guys. Sort of new to all of this. I recorded an audio track of an old Casio SK-1 recently. How would I make it sound thicker, you know... like add some beef to it? Should I drop in an EQ thing or something? I dont know. I've been a bass player for a long time, but whenever I needed some beef to ...

Ableton Live 6 clips royalties?

Howdy. If I used a stock clip from Ableton Live 6's library of clips (say a synth lead part or something) in a song I am writing w/ my band, do I have to pay royalties or something to Ableton if the song earns commercial success? Or are the clips there for commercial use, too? I just dont wanna use ...

Good/best computer music magazine in USA?

Looking to get a subscription to a computer-based music magazine. I see a lot of them at my local book store (Borders), but they are usually all imports from the UK running $15 an issue. Any good ones out there that won't break the bank? Or is it worth it to buy those?

Feedback/Screaching mic when audio recording

Howdy. Not so new to making music/noise, but pretty new to recording. I built a new computer (not really for recording, though, as I wasn't planning on being in a kickass band, like I am now, haha) a couple months ago and bought a Creative X-Fi Music sound card. When I plug my dynamic mic into my mi...

video game-esque sounds, etc. (i.e. Helio Sequence)

If anyone has heard The Helio Sequence (Portland-based rock duo), you would know that they use a lot of synth-like stuff. I'm a little new to synths and midi in general, and I've had Ableton for a couple months. If you decide to listen to these guys, for the sake of knowing what the F i'm talking ab...

TrackTeamAudio sample mp3s, anyone?

Howdy. I'm interested in the TrackTeamAudio.com LiveFill packs they have, but the "mp3 player" doesn't work for me. Anyone have any samples they can throw my way so I can hear what these badboys sound like? I know a couple have demos. I've played with those a little. I want crazy sounds to...

For anyone who uses an Axiom series controller, or would just like to help a brother out: Howdy. I'm new to Live, sort of. New to my Axiom. New to MIDI in general. Just been messing around for a couple months. The 8 knobs on my Axiom 25 aren't being read by Live or any of the plug-ins (Massive, FM8)...

Looping tracks on the fly?

Howdy. Got Live 6 a couple months ago. Have been trying my best at it. It's my first DAW, my first steps into MIDI in general, etc. I basically use it as a host for my plug-in synths to provide ambient noise/weird SFX in my experimental band's sets. We dont record. We just jam it out. I would, howev...

Ableton Live 6 Printed Manual?

Howdy. Don't know if this allowed on the forums or not, but I lost my Live 6 manual. Don't wanna spend $50 for a new one w/ new box and stickers. Would prefer printed over .pdf. Anyone have one they would be willing to sell for a reasonable price?
