Re: Live 12 reference manual DISCONTINUED BOOOOOO

Here's the Live 12 online manual. With all due respect, it needs a lot more work. I don't disagree! It's being updated constantly, though, so it's taking shapes. What would be helpful is a "whats new in Live 12" section, that links to the relevant page in the online manual. The only new f...

Re: Using Ableton Live with a band

Simplest way possible would be an audio interface with at least four audio outs. Obviously one of the audio outs goes to headphones with a click track, you can get little headphone mixers that have at least four headphone outs on them, this is the cheapest way to get click tracks. there are bluetoot...

Re: LIVE 12 VST compatability

The fun question, are you who are having issues with this on Mac OS Sonoma 14.4? There have been issues with iLok, peripherals among other things with the last update. iLok issue is only with AU's not with VSTs Oh it's not just iLok. My favorite verified by another user, move Kontakt 7 to your seco...

Re: VST2 is in the way out, Steinberg will terminate SDK licenses

People overhyped VST3 and attacked Ableton for years for not rushing to adopt it, now the truth comes out about VST3 but none of those people will mention that Ableton was right about it all along. Well one thing is true, especially for Windows users, the need to port to VST3 is real. Plus because ...

Where is the logic behind all this ?
Steinberg are trying to get rid of VST2, they made VST3 so different and kludgy to develop that it's taken 15 years for market saturation and they don't want to support VST2 or have people use it anymore.

They had months to update the online manual, and the whole supposed purpose of an online manual is to have a document you can update on the fly. :x

Re: Expensive update

It's the price of a dinner or sandwich" is suppose to justify a price? I specifically didn't make a false comparison by comparing to something vital, but to something superfluous like expensive 5G+XL-whatnot phone subscriptions. I'm leaving in what's considered a healthy country, I chose a 3€ ...

Re: Expensive update

It's capitalism, so it makes little real world sense. Companies thrive for years on mostly $79 upgrades like Reaper, and companies get bought and sold multiple times like Steinberg, charging far more for upgrades. The obvious issue, Ableton have multiple hands to feed with Suite compared to standard...

Re: Live 12 reference manual DISCONTINUED BOOOOOO

You know I was going to say you could search google with the tags for the specific part of the manual you wanted, but Google intentionally broke their boolean search tags, so it's near useless for this now.


Emailing them to get a PDF manual back is a worthy thing to do.

Re: Push 3S - List of Supported Control Surfaces

At this point, these are the ones that have been verified and should work with P3S: - APC Mini - APC mini MK2 - Launchkey Mini mkIII - Launchpad MK2 - APC40 MK1 - APC40 mk2 - Launchpad Pro MK3 Makes total sense, my Push 2 plays nicely with the Launchpad Pro MKIII, would expect most of the same cont...

Re: Ableton Live 12 Release

"I use a lot of plug ins but I will use this stock gear more." Staying totally within Ableton would simplify transferring and sharing files, and make it less likely to crash or have other problems. With the new synths and effects over the years, it's almost possible to stay entirely withi...

Re: A way to independently control Live with laptop/Push2?

Launchpads work fine alongside Push.
The Akai APC lunchers also work.

Another option is Ableton Link, two laptops and whatever controllers you want. Probably the safest option.

Re: Will we get a feature similar to Akai MPC STEMS?

I have an MPC and will definitely be using the stems feature. it's not all about demixing for DJing etc. my old band unfortunately lost the master tapes for our songs, all we have is mix downs of the few we did record, the guitar and vocals are burried, so any sort of stem separation tool is useful....
