Re: Using Drum Rack pads to automate on/off of effects in the Audio Effect Rack in a different Group Track.

LOL, just searched in Live's Browser here, found a couple devices I had built for someone who asked for a device that toggles with MIDI notes, had forgotten I ever built those. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/745dbne1p48hfkj73q9oc/PT-MIDI-Toggle.amxd?rlkey=5tb1tmxfq98o4mrmeq8hur5jz&st=v4w0rkot&am...

Re: Using Drum Rack pads to automate on/off of effects in the Audio Effect Rack in a different Group Track.

You can also load FX in separate Chains in a Audio Effect Rack, zone the Chains separately and then map a range of notes (pads in controllers like Push usually send MIDI notes) to the Chain Selector.

Re: Using Drum Rack pads to automate on/off of effects in the Audio Effect Rack in a different Group Track.

You can load instances of Expression Control or Shaper MIDI in Drum Rack pads, or key-mapped Chains in Instrument Racks.

Live's modulators can modulate across multiple Tracks.

Re: Mixing plugins formats in Live. Why is it advised against it ?

The advice to "avoid mixing plugin formats (VST2, VST3) for the same plug-in in the same Live set", is to avoid wasting resources, as you would be loading 2 (or more) different software (each plugin format is basically separate software, despite looking the same), using more memory and CPU...

Re: Wavetables for Wavetable

Wavetable uses wavetables with 1024 samples frame size, not 512, and each single cycle waveform has to be exactly 1024 samples, not "about".

Alternatively, Wavetable can also import Serum wavetables (2048 frame size.),

Re: (BUG?) Starting from the playbar plays a few bars and then repeats.

Simplest Occam's razor explanation is that you clicked twice by mistake, triggering the start, then immediately after also a Launch Quantized retrigger.

Re: MIDI record capture limited to 8 bars?

Why not simply record when you are overlaying lengthy drum parts?

Then you can take advantage of other features like loop recording and comping too.

Re: Panning in Ableton

Live's default is also balance panning (1 knob), you can right click the knob and change to Split Stereo Pan Mode (2 sliders, one for each channel).

Re: Problems with Packs in Live 12

Same issue with IRCAMAX. Mostly the Ianaylzer and the Note Tracker. Audio will pass through the plugin but will not convert pitch to midi. I just recently became an Ableton user after putting it off for years. Was happy with the way things were going with 11 and the 12! Very disappointed that the I...

Re: MIDI timing when sequencing Orchestral Romplers

From what I saw people usually use Track Delay to deal with that per track, but maybe using Note Echo (with zero feedback) or Align Delay devices works in some situations (those can only delay though).

Re: Is the Surround Panner device included with M4L + Ableton Live Standard?

It is included with Standard+M4L, but getting Suite is way better value per $ than buying only M4L.

And buying M4L does NOT lower the price of the Suite upgrade later.

Re: [Ableton 12] Why removing scenes bpm panel?

I couldn't find it in the context menu, but I found it under main menu bar -> View -> Scene tempo and time signature. Thanks sir for the help! Ah, it is because I use the beta version so I didn't notice that was added in 12.0.5b1 (not in 12.0), it should appear in the future 12.0.5 full release.

Re: [Ableton 12] Why removing scenes bpm panel?

AFAIK it was not removed, right click a Scene and enable "Scene Tempo and Time Signature" context menu option to reveal it.
