Re: bouncing / dithering

Thanks for the response Pooks.

However, if this is the case, then what happens if I choose to export with the following settings:

dither ="no dithering"
bit depth = 16 bit

I would assume this would cause a problem right? What bit depth is Ableton running at?

Or more to the point... which bit ...

Re: bouncing / dithering

Well, I read online somewhere that anytime you normalize you're also dithering as well, which is why it's good to only normalize once.

bouncing / dithering

hi everyone,

I have a question about bouncing and dithering. at the moment, i record all my tracks in Live, and then bounce them to Logic for mixing/mastering. The problem i'm having is that, because i am dithering every track in Live that I bounce, I end up with a bit of noise in each of the ...

Re: Moving sample libraries to an external harddrive

Hmm, that's all fine and dandy if my samples are located in my Ableton Library, but what if they are located elsewhere? I use lots of samples that aren't associated with my Ableton library.

Hmm, find the magic rock where you hide your samples, and then, oh yeah, here it comes, drum roll....copy ...

Re: Moving sample libraries to an external harddrive



collect all and save IS the efficient way to do it. Think about it this way, if your hard drive dies today, you lose all your projects and your samples. If you collect all and save, and backup to another drive, then you have a completely self contained record of everything youre doing. Spending ...

Moving sample libraries to an external harddrive

I've got a bunch of samples on my local harddrive, and I want to move them to an external harddrive...

Is there an easy way to do this in Live, without all of my projects losing the samples?

Example:

I made several songs that uses kick1 located in
/Mac Harddrive/My User/Samples/Kick1.wav

I want ...

software mastering suites

Hey Guys,

So I'm looking to master some tracks, and I'm wondering what software I should get. I've been thinking about Logic Studio, but over here in NZ it's $800 and I just don't think I wanna spend that much money (though I might if there are no cheaper alternatives).

So my question -- are there ...

you don't want sonar. :-)

it's just not worth it... 64-bit with a bad interface, compared to an inspiring musical environment that is temporarily 32-bit.

just be patient for a month or two.

I think the sacrifice one must make to become successful can be very draining and depressing. Hence, the reason there are so many depressed successful musicians. And then you have to ask yourself, are they really successful?

I don't think you've achieved success if you aren't happy.
