Ableton Forum

Hey Ben,

How are you? Thanks for replying. I have referred to the video tutorial we made, with you showing me LIVE on the bus, while we were on tour.
Anyway, after researching the FCB1010, it sounds good, a bit large and "difficult" to program. What are the other, smaller options you alluded to ...

I actually have another question. I just bought Live 8 because a friend told me I could use Live to help lighten my rig and set-up. My friend had problems actually showing me how I would do what I'd like to do.
So I'm asking, how would I do these things with Ableton?

I play trombone. My standard ...

Thank you all for your informative responses.

Since I tour a great deal, weight might be a factor due to overweight charges. Of course, usability would trump weight concerns.
I'd still appreciate any other input. I would like a controller that would give me access to most of Live's features.

I'm planning on buying Live 6. I was curious about which foot controller boards people prefer to use with Live.

Thank you...
