Ableton Forum

I've been using Massive X within Windows/Ableton with no crash problems. I think there has been one update (1.01) so make sure that is there. A new update (1.1 I think) is supposed to be coming soon, and it is needed for sure. One big problem is that if you do stuff like duplicate a track or save an...

I'm using Monark to make a bassline and I noticed I get an interesting effect by taking advantage of the monotimbrality to "choke" my main bassline using other notes. The thing is, I don't want to have those "choke notes" make a sound, and as with many sounds, even if you turn th...

I exported a rough .mp3 file of a sound sketch I made using NI's Kinetic Toys, and an .asd file was also created with that .mp3 file. At this point in the project, this sound was the only midi track.

Certainly it has happened in bass lines and in high melodies, so different instruments. Live does not have 'per note automation'. In other word...

Hello, I have been having the problem that I cannot truly duplicate things, in other words the duplicates are NOT true duplicates.
