Ableton Forum

almost been a month since I got mine...crazy how time flys

I just had a warm welcome with live 8 suite the to other night...Looks like my mpc4000 will be looking for a new home within next few weeks

pc x2 3800, 2gb, 2x 150gb hdd

couple stacks of vinyl

Is there specific audio channel output for live I'm not aware of ? Basically I'm trying route channels 17&18 out of PC/ableton to my digital mixer's inputs 17&18 purely for monitoring purposes. But I get no audio coming out of Live. I get audio from battery rewired in live just fine, same go...

probably guru, or live 7 when it comes out

I got couple of samplers to unload, particularly mpc 2500 and mpc 4000. Take your pick

I'm having a hard time thinking of ways that they can get my cash for an upgrade...

stay away from vista, for at least another 6mo or more

I'm eager to see what Live 7 has to offer. I'm hoping to see sampler and operator as part of the upgrade. Considering fully blown logic 8 costs $500 with about 64 GB of content. It comes out to that Live 7 should be a free update to Live 6 users.

maybe it has something to do with one of the improvments in 6.09 T"he installing of default packages, which are installed when a certain Live version is started for the first time, is started after the splash screen is closed. Until now the default packages are installed during "splash scr...

Mpc probably is closest thing to Ableton. But it's main purpose is to serve as drum machine and phrase sampler rather than melodic instrument. Even if you got an MPC you still need a keyboard, or at least midi controller to lay down melodies. You should be looking at synth workstation like triton, m...
