I have figured a way to get this to work, i.e. import midi from FL Studio to Ableton. Here are the steps - Go to Tools > Macro > Prepare for midi export. This converts all the channels to midi out channels instead of audio. This allows for midi output. Then export the entire song to midi. Import int...

So everyone knows that to access a plugin you have to go down to the device title bar and click the little show/hide plugin button. In terms of mouse movement, the move is large and literally across the screen. Why not provide the plugin access button right by the track name as that's where you natu...

I have noticed that every time I open my project, I have to manually set the height of the Arrangement overview to what I'd like it to be. Each time upon closing the project, this state is not saved.

+1 Well done for an excellent presentation! Such changes should have been integrated a long time ago. The fact that the company hasn't done so reflects very poorly on it and it's simply sad that we users have had to bear the brunt of it for so long. Almost all the other well known DAWs have incorpor...

+1 Ableton Please!

In session view, one can use shift and tab to toggle between clip view and device view. I have found myself in need of both views at once for live dj performances. I sincerely hope this will be incorporated into the next update. Even better if there is an option to switch between the present classic...

This seems so handy for hearing whole chords or even making rhythms by clicking around on the piano roll. Currently you have to drag your cursor over notes and it pla...

I use the piano roll extensively and having tried FL Studio I have to say (giving compliments where due) that their piano roll far surpasses Ableton's. That said, I love Ableton as a DAW too, having started out first with it and I'm used to a certain workflow now. So would you please bring in much n...

In FL Studio the ability to add a separator to the track mixer thereby separating the different instruments or track types creates an ease to view them especially if there are many tracks. I find this feature sorely missing on Ableton Live and though the new update provides groups, there is no easy ...

How do I resize Bengal, the max device? It's way too small for my 27" screen. I'm using an iMac.

Confirmed -- it's a 10.0.2 issue. I take full system snapshots of my machines daily and just tried reverting to yesterdays snapshot containing 10.0.1. Everything worked fine. 10.0.2 breaks support for Arturia plugins. It may be confirmed for your case but I just tested Arturia on my system (I have ...
