Re: transport starting mysteriously (live 11)

yeah, i have midi monitor running. maybe that will find it. however, i've had to silence:

- the constant 'active sense' messages from push
- the constant 'bank select 0' messages from RME ARC

wonder if the sheer volume of messages from these two sources is a problem...

transport starting mysteriously (live 11)

Hi- I am having a wierd issue where live 11 starts playing suddenly when it has been left alone for a while. I expect that it is getting some kind of transport start message from one of the (many) connected MIDI devices or even from ableton link. Does anyone know how to go about diagnosing this? are...

Workflow Question: managing audio from external instruments

People- The last few years I have been using external instruments (synths) a lot more than the previous 10. I suspect that is a common situation. Im curious how people are setting up their workflow to handle this. I am currently using multiple tracks (zero or more for midi clips and one to capture t...

Solo-safe with summing

Hi all- Just thought I'd share the way that I get solo-safe behaviour with live 10, which is extremely useful for analogue summing. The problem, as many have pointed out, is that there is no such thing as solo safe audio tracks in live, as there is is other DAWs. So if you solo a track which is poin...

Re: Ableton mixer

I can help here. The Mackie MCU pro and MCU pro extenders work great with ableton. You can have hardware control of up to 32 tracks. I wish the Icon Platform M and Platform X worked, but alas the Platform X software is useless and the tech support is non existent. Avoid Icon, even though their hardw...

Re: Usb 2.0 Hub for Push2 and other MIDI devices opinions?

I use push, and lots of other stuff, through USB hubs extensively, both on the road and in the studio. The key thing is getting a quality item, more than whether it is 2.0 or 3.0. There is a lot of poorly made stuff out there. One brand I have had success with is Plugable...they actually have techni...

Its great value in the second hand market. One thing to note is that its digital only 44.1 or 48 ... i run at 96k so i integrate it in the analogue domain.

Re: 19" Effect Unit

I have m-one xl. Reverbs are nice. Modulation decent. Other stuff hit and miss, but its there. I use it for live but not for recording. Honestly, valhalla plugin verb is probably better. You might consider an h9 though you'd have to add an impedance matching box. H9 is a really great set of stereo p...

Re: iZotope Vocalsynth - worth it?

I've kind of liked the idea since its release, but I've always felt that I could achieve the same results with Ableton's vocoder and resonators. The pull for me would be that it's an all-in-one device. Does anyone own Vocalsynth? Would you recommend it? It's currently 50% off. I have it, its nice h...

Live 10: So can you label the sends yet?

So I see from various posts (I am not ready to beta yet) that we will now be able to label ins and out. Excellent!

Have we been given the ability to label sends so we dont have to remember where sends A B C D E F G go?

Answers or insights much appreciated.
