Is there a way to "arm" a scene to launch using tap tempo without actually playing the scene first? One workaround I've seen is to mute the track(s) affected, press play, press stop, unmute, and then use tap tempo to set whatever the tempo is. Obviously, this is not ideal. Curious if there...

I have a looper set up in one track and then 2 other Midi tracks that feed into it. When I turn on a send (delay) in one of the midi tracks and record to the looper, the notes get recorded, but not the effect (delay). I'm pretty sure this is a routing, monitoring, and/or I/O issue. I just can't figu...

Yes! That’s it. I don’t know why I didn’t think of that. Thanks

Thanks for taking time to respond Greenapples. Your suggestion of adjusting the volume of each instrument in the chain list sounds like a good place to start. I’ll experiment with that. I do like having velocity control available on my pads, but I’ll try that too just to see what the effect is. I do...

I've been building my first two racks. I have one with several melodic instruments and another with several different drum racks inside an instrument rack. I've mapped the chain selector to one of the macros to select the instruments within each rack. The racks are in different tracks and routed to ...

I’m using a McMillen Softstep 2 and a Novation launched mini. In “notes” mode I have the Softstep mapped to control some looper functions. I’d like to map the Launchkey mini to control a chain selector in an instrument rack. However, when I turn on “remote” in midi preferences for the launchkey, it ...

I am composing to video. I have loaded the video clips into a track in arrangement view. I would like the video clips to play at their original speed, without being influenced by the changing tempo of the music I am writing. At the clip level, warp is turned off on all video clips. In Live preferenc...

Thanks penman! That worked. Now I'm confused about the measure numbers at the top along the timeline. Previously, instead of highlighting the area I wanted to export, I typed in the last measure#...or just after it. But when I highlighted the area I wanted as you suggested, it said the area went up ...

I've never had this issue before. I have 6:58 of audio recorded in arrangement view. When I try to export the WAV file, it's only 5:40. When I do File>Export, I type in the measure numbers at the end of the song and I always cue up the track to 1.1.1. The tracks are all midi instruments and I have o...

I've been composing to some video that I dragged into my project. However, when I try to export the combined video and audio, only the audio gets exported. I searched and noticed others have had the same problem, with not much luck in solving it. I've tried exporting as a Quicktime movie and an mp4 ...

Thank you!

I'm currently running 9.2.3. If I update to Live 9.7, will my current projects be updated to 9.7?

Thanks!

I've been checking out Touchable with Midi Tracks and the Looper. If I'm using the "Push" grid to play in Touchable and have a Looper in the track, the Looper starts recording whenever I play the note C3. It seems to be mapped to this note and I'm not sure why or how I can undo it.

Thanks!

Figured it out. It's the Fixed length button.

I've been learning how to use Touchable...going through the videos on their website. In one of them, it shows you how to set clip length to a specific setting (1 bar, 2 bars, etc). I seem to have set it to 1 bar because when I try to record midi clips, it only allows me to record 1 bar. I've been go...
