Ableton Forum

TLDR Sorry, this is just a technical ramble on timing.

I don't have any pleasant solution for this but it was helpful for me figuring out why i was was having so much occasional timing trouble with MIDI clock synced external devices. And also why i gradually moved to using less FX when composing ...

Yeah, theres not a way to load multiple sessions at once so it's either load each song before you play or (probably more likely) make a large session with all your tracks. That way of doing things is kind of its own world unto itself and may or may not make you pull your hair out . Or you could ...

If it's helpful to anyone out there:

Yes, the Launchpad Mini mk3 is usefully brighter than the Push 2. It's definitely not enough to overpower direct sunlight, but it was just barely usable with a cloudy sky and in the shade it was basically fine. I tried the Mini first over the X because I heard ...

I used the Push 2 outdoors today with the power supplied and the screen and pad brightness settings maxed out and it was still much too dim for me to use in a slightly shaded area. For reference the screen on the laptop i used was bright enough to see clearly, not by a lot, but enough. It was really ...

Mmmhhh, it's working here. How are set your "Record, Warp &Launch" preferences?


Exclusive Arm off, and basically the rest off except Start transport on record and with tap tempo turned on.

No biggie (for me), thanks anyway, I don't think i could get used to arming tracks with Rec + Track. I ...

Tested.
Unfortunately, using REC + Track does exactly the same.

I also had the same result using Rec + Track to arm: Ableton still switched my input. Anyway it's already too many exceptions to keep track of.

Lets hope they clear it up soon.

Thanks for making the support request.

So if you're using a Push and this feature bothers you - Ableton unarming a track when you select another and would like to keep the old track armed:

- If you switch tracks on the Push in Session Mode, Ableton will NOT unarm the track you were using. It only ...

I see from this other thread that part of the issue lies in the difference between "manual-arm" with the red color button and "selection-arm" with the pink color button.

Hopefully i'll have the brain power to sort it ...

I finally encountered this issue today and it's driving me batty. This can't have been the way Live 11 worked or I'm sure i would have seen it before.

I seem to remember Live 11 (and 10 i think) that when you switched tracks with the Push 2 you had to long press the button for it to switch to ...

I have basically the same problem as the op: The Clip Selector switches to other values than i would expect when i use dummy clips and then select another clip on the same track with no automation envelope set for Clip Selector.

For instance:
- trigger dummy clip with clip selector set to 10 ...

Thanks for the nudge in the right direction:


You could use M4L to disable the delete button


The perfect things already exists here:

And it has an override factility to reenable the delete when I need it!


I can't seem to get that ...

From what i understand it's not that Ableton is unaware of something like this, it is just that there isn't much support for the Arrangement view on the Push, by design (much to people's dismay). That would explain why theres not a "back to arrangement" or a "set/add locator" button either, for ...

I haven't experienced it recently so I didn't notice it's still here.
Please send a bug report to Support !


Oh man, how was this forgotten about down at HQ? I've been dealing with this every Ableton session for so many years now. It's bittersweet finding this thread because, all along, I ...

Additionally it would be cool if you could restore the default mapping for any plug-in instead of only overwriting it. Heck, go ahead and also make the control maps exportable and importable.

I would like to see additional editing of the tables when you click Configure to edit a plug-in's Device Parameters. Besides just having the ability to delete or rearrange, I would really like to be able to rename the parameter fields. And even better it would be nice to be able to specify for the ...
