Re: Am I the only one that feels like Push 2 is useless?

5) Knobs are great but I can do that on my Midi keyboard. Well, I have Push 2, got it for free when I bought L11 Suite. It's still sealed in its box. I have bad news though, you can't do with a generic MIDI controller what you can do with Push, because Live has the worst support of any DAW for gene...

Re: Keyboard-Shortcut to launch and record in *Session* view?

Sorry but I still don't understand why in 2024 we still don't have global keyboard and MIDI mappings. When I open old projects toolbar button mappings I created later don't work. This is kinda frustrating.

Re: Record Arm on when selecting a track?

I've had this working for ages in Live 10 & 11. In Live 12 it doesn't work. I'll email Ableton about it. I'm afraid they have deprecated this option.

Re: Non-destructive hot-swap (audition sample in context)

I'm a rookie Live user and I also thought I was doing something wrong, but nope, it's just how it works. Even though the way it is implemented isn't ideal, it's still an improvement over just drag-and-dropping stuff from the browser: It saves you having to drag-and-drop from the browser to the targe...

Re: Easier-to-see mixer fader handles

I don't think Ableton will ever change this. I mean, the whole software still looks basically the same as it did in version 1, even though they've very subtly tweaked the interface over the years, I don't think they've changed any of the basic look of any of the main elements and I don't think they...

Re: Why can't we change the order of return tracks?

One other thing I'd really like to have is the ability to move the return tracks around and have them in between the "normal" tracks. I get that it has advantages to always have them on the right and that could very well stay the default setting. But if I have my vocals on track one it wo...

Bump.
I just spent 30 minutes copying/pasting send values after reordering return tracks.
Wait for someone to tell you that back in the day that's how it was with hardware mixers :|

Re: How to bypass high latency plugins while tracking?

I wrote to Steve Duda (Serum developer) to report a bug related to the bypass wrapper button in Ableton. He said this: VST3 bypass is different than VST2 bypass, where VST3 decides it's up to the manufacturer what Bypass means (plugin is still active), where VST2 would literally stop processing on t...

Re: Ableton Push 3 update

It wasn’t sticky pads, it was the lower portion and sides of the case that got sticky. And yes, it’s been resolved. How has it been resolved? Only in Push 3 or also in later Push 2 units? Essentially rubber coatings tend to go sticky if certain environmental conditions are met (moisture, light, ski...

Re: Arrangement view does not focus/scroll to selected track

I know this is an old post but thought I'd share is it may help someone. The best workaround I can found for now is to simulate arrow key presses in max for live using this http://www.11olsen.de/code/max-objects/11strokes You know Live could be better when the best workaround available is an ineleg...

Re: A kill switch for all audio effects

Just freeze tracks with long reverb tails. As I said in my previous reply, it's one step from telling me to just wear earplugs. That's not the point. I need the tail to stop when I stop playback so I can quickly make edits and play again, without having to wait for the tail to decay off. I want to ...

Re: A kill switch for all audio effects

Triple-clicking doesn't do that on my computer. Thanks for cross-checking this. Alas, I was wrong. I was testing using Valhalla Room and the reverb tail is indeed interrupted instantly when I triple-click the Stop button, but using the built-in Reverb device this doesn't work which is corresponds w...

Re: How has Ableton Live managed 10 versions without Midi Panic button?

Any updates on this? I haven't got any external synths to test but I've just discovered a triple-click on the main Stop button interrupt all audio (e.g. long reverbs and delays, etc), and I was wondering if that might also send CC123 or whatever the MIDI panic CC number is. Unfortunately, even if th...

Re: A kill switch for all audio effects

Actually, I've seen many threads like this where all of the replies were stupid. No, you are all wrong. Sorry. The OP wants to interrupt a long reverb tail, for example. All the solutions provided here and elsewhere are equivalent to "pop on some earplugs until the reverb tail decays off"....
