Goodbye Ableton

After mounting frustration with this product, I'm quitting Ableton for good.

I work with Music Technology and I'm afraid I can't recommend this product.

Re: Still ridiculous 8 bar limit?

Is that only on the Push 2 or on the Push 1 as well?

Couldn't say if it works for Push 1 as I no longer have my Push 1. I assume you can set the length of the clip the same way (press the Clip button and use the loop length encoder). I'm much less sure that you could access more than 16 bars ...

Re: November 29th, 2015: 9.5 Wiped Packs and Plug-ins. DISGUSTED


Thanks for an actual reply that relates to this topic. I work with Music Technology every day. If this happened with Cubase or Logic, it would destroy their reputations. Full stop. Imagine opening a Logic project which you've been working on with an artist, limited by time, to find that 50 odd ...

Re: November 29th, 2015: 9.5 Wiped Packs and Plug-ins. DISGUSTED

Just be sure Live is not indexing the library.

If your actual content is still there on your PC drive, but is missing in your Live library, don't stress, just check where it says "Places" if a circle is animated there which indicates the library building. This will also account for why you may ...

November 29th, 2015: 9.5 Wiped Packs and Plug-ins. DISGUSTED

Suddenly all my custom pack and plug-ins have disappeared from the lists on Ableton after installing 9.5. Unbelievable.

WHAT IS GOING ON? This is shoddy and atrocious

Re: Live 9.5 crashes/issues

WHAT IS GOING ON?

This 9.5 has lost my plug-ins which were working perfectly well under the last version.

Still ridiculous 8 bar limit?

I work with a lot of song material, and a lot of it is in 16 bars.

The 8 bar limit on Push crippled my music-making, so I haven't really used it much.

Has this limitation been removed now? Can Push handle 16 bars?

Re: transposing entire song

There are so many basic features missing from Ableton. This software is meant to make it easier to create tracks not harder.

Step Sequencing beyond 8 bars

OK. I'm a beginner. This thing is not as intuitive as I thought it was going to be. So I have a 16 bar loop set up.

I'm in Step Sequencer mode, entering notes. I can see I can press the white buttons at the top to select a different bar. 8 lights, 8 bars.

So how do I select bar 9?
