Depending on your controller you may be able to shrink the range of the knob to suit.

Honestly, asking $300 for a barebones copy of Live two days before the announcement of L8 without any upgrade options is not realistic. Transferred sofware tends to go for 40-50% of retail price, so I'd expect $200, and I'd wait till after Thursday where you can sweeten the offer with the ...

Selling my download (non-box) copy of Live 7. Doesn't come with operator, sampler, etc.

Asking 200, but if you want to lodge an offer just send me a PM. I'll consider offers if it doesn't go quickly.

Glad to hear you sorted it out!

The trick for me was to select the right operating mode. In some of the modes the unit merges data and on others it doesn't, so I just had to pick the right one (U-1 and U-3 or something like that).

Shit! I missed your reply.

Do you still need this information?

200-300% read/write improvements are really, really hard to believe. This would be faster than the disk interface could support, wouldn't it?

Agreed. I have three units with these knobs and they all continue to work just fine.

I have two, and they both work fine in windows and os x (but running 7.0.7).

This has been posted before, so do a search. One of the keyboards has to always be CAPS LOCK, and I think two is the limit unless one could be set up to be doing key strokes (ctrl+?) but be careful of of Lives Defaults for these, then just set each key to launch or toggle parameters and clips like ...

can do it that way. or you can organize it by midi channels.

set your two different keyboards to two different midi channels.

under the dropdown menu on the channel midi, instead of making it say, "all ins" just select the channel you have assigned to each of your controllers.


very easy.

Even ...

This should be quite easy.

Session view, make sure I/O is toggled to display (beside the master fader), select your track, select the "MIDI From" pulldown item and choose the keyboard you want. Repeat this for the other tracks.

Are you trying to set it up as a control surface, or just to play midi notes to tracks?

So your only requirement is multiple outputs?

I thought every professional soundcard did that, along with a good chunk of the consumer market.

Go into any pro audio store and ask for the audio interfaces section. They'll steer you to something that suits you (and then go home and read reviews).

My favorite headphones ever. I have two pairs now, one for monitoring Live and one for regular audio playback from the mac.

The foam on them can wear out after a while (year or two?) but i haven't had any other problems with mine yet.

(Unlike my Stanton headphones which had broken frames, loose ...
