Thanks! I couldn't find where to define a default MIDI-track, so now it's working OK!

It seems so stupid: when I insert a new MIDi track in the arranger view of Live 10, I got indeed a new track, but there is already a plugin that comes with it (A Kontakt VST in my case). I expect to have an empty track... The default template doesn't contain that plugin. So, how can I reset this fun...

Here more details of the mentioned problem: When I load a project and I apply a lot of changes, I can't close Live normally, only via the Task Manager. The same situation happens when I apply a lot of changes and want to load another project. In case of only a couple of changes, I can close Live and...

Recently Live has a strange behaviour: when I load a project, work in it and then I want to load another project, Live blocks! It says "loading project" but in the heading there is written "ableton doesn't react". So I have to "close" the program using the task manager ...

In the meantime I've tried other code packs, but still nothing worked (video, yes, audio nothing). Also, when I added an audio track in the same project, all wave files remained silent (as the one of the video). Even worse: in a new project, when I created a new audio track, no matter what you put o...

Thanks for your reply! I saw that answer also, but of course that is not quite a good solution. I've tested the same situation on another PC and when I used MME/DirectX and not ASIO as a driver, it worked! But I don't see the need to downgrade my studio PC with that driver. Also, on the Ableton site...

I'm running Live Standard at a windows 10 PC. Now I want to import a video. As the knowledge base suggests, I've installed the Haali Media Splitter (aka Matroska Splitter). Now I try to import the StarGirlScore video clip from the Spitfire Audio challenge. They deliver 2 versions: *.mov and *.mp4. A...

No, I didn't... and that explains why it didn't work of course!

Thanks for your input!

I'm working in arrangement view. The strange thing is I did the same earlier and than it worked...

Here is the situation: I have a midi-track (with notes) and I want to add a phaser effect on top if it. So, I drag and drop the phaser effect on the track, assign my pedal to its "Amount" parameter. When playing the track, I hear the phaser going on while changing the position of the pedal...

I've received an answer from the technical support: the cause is the value set for the Global Launch Quantization. If this sound as Chinese, look at the left upper list of knobs: you have "Link", "Exit", "Tap"... The most right sided knob shows normally the value "...

That is what I do. Another "solution" is to change the value of the "Expression" value (CC011) of each midi-track to make a reasonable mix before dumping to audio. But I was wondering if there were possibility to control the expression value via an external device, but if I press...

For some projects I'm using an old Roland JV2080 as a 16 channel sound module. Suppose I create 4 midi-tracks on which I drag and drop an external instrument. Each track has its own midi channel number. After recording some melodies on the 4 tracks, I want to check the result. Sometimes one track/pa...

When working with Live! V 10.1.5 (and also the previous versions) in the Arrangment view, I use a lot the small speaker to listen to a track(s) from a certain point on. Sometimes, not always, when I click on the loudspeaker on the start position, I see a small triangle blinking and after 1 à 2 secon...

Thank you very much! I was looking in the preferences, but didn't find anything. Now I know what to do!
