Issues with MOTU M4 and CV Tools

I'm trying to connect my modular system to Ableton via my MOTU M4, a DC-coupled audio interface widely recommended for this purpose. I'm using floating ring cables and I've also tried regular patch cables and insert cables, but all with the same result: the 'Insufficient Control Voltage' error in ...

Has anybody found something affordable for playing Push at a comfortable standing height?

Re: Assigning footswitch ports?

I've just started running it through my Oxygen 25 keyboard instead. The only problem now is that I need to press it down twice for anything to happen.

Re: Assigning footswitch ports?

Has anybody found a solution to this short of using another MIDI interface? Recording guitar by hand is tedious.

I want to use a Boss FS-5L. For Looper, yes, but even just to trigger recording an audio clip. No luck with that either though. Only MIDI. And for MIDI, the latency is atrocious.

Maybe ...

Re: OS x crashing still in Live 9.1

I've had some intermittent crashes over the last few weeks. I'm on a mid-2011 MacBook Pro, so I always put it down to that.

But today is something else. I've been using Panstation and Discord3 by Audio Damage since this afternoon, and several things are guaranteed to crash Live every single time ...

Re: Push (literally) gathering dust

I got a Prodector cover for €35 and it works great. Definitely worth investing in one.

KarmaFX modular synth vs building something similar in Max

As another person who isn't overly satisfied with the synths packaged in Live, I started using the KarmaFX modular synth demo and it's easily the nicest synth I've used so far. I absolutely love what this thing can do and it's not expensive.

But building a modular synth feels like a good ...

Benefits of running a MIDI group track into an audio track?

I posted this on Reddit but probably should have come here first.

I've been taking a look at the Noah Pred Live set that Ableton shared recently (http://www.noahpred.com/ableton/TCLive9BD.html) and the track layout isn't something I'm able to make a lot of sense of at times.

Particularly the 808 ...

Avoiding clipping from external distortion effect

I decided to start playing around with the External Audio Effect and some distortion pedals I had for bass guitar today, and the results are actually really nice apart from the awful clipping I'm getting unless I gate out the higher frequencies completely, which I don't necessarily always want. But ...

Re: Problems with Magic Trackpad/Keyboard since Push

Thanks for your reply!

- They remain fine but not for long. The problem returns.
- Yeah, the problem happens when it's between the devices and the receiver. I'm going to try a few different set-ups tonight.
- Batteries were changed last week, at least in the trackpad.

Anyway, just wanted to see if ...

Problems with Magic Trackpad/Keyboard since Push

It feels weird to be writing this, but since I got my Push on Tuesday, I've been having constant problems with my Apple Magic Trackpad and Keyboard where any input from either is extremely stuttery, like the Bluetooth signal is struggling to reach them.

I've used both for 2 years with the same ...
