Ableton Forum

Nevermind, writing a Max device is more trouble than it's worth. I am using FL Studio instead for now. In the long run, I am trying to figure out how to write a Python script that sends the required message and then launches Live.

I do have Max for Live. I can try to program something to send the message I need, and we'll see if Ableton lets the message through.

The MIDI Control list only goes up to CC 119. What I want is (unofficially) CC 126.

Hi, I need to send a "mono mode on" MIDI message to my Paia 9700 MIDI to CV interface, to enable what Paia calls "multi mode" (monophonic voices on multiple MIDI channels). The MIDI message I need is hexadecimal B0 7E 00 (set CC 126 to zero on channel 1, though it is officially n...

This issue is blocking me from using Korg WaveState Native properly in Live 11.3.11. I asked Korg support for advice, and all they could suggest is to use a different DAW. The lack of MIDI channels 2-16 has also been a recurring issue for me. There are lots of forum posts about it, and its gone unfi...

Hi Michael, did you have any luck fixing this issue? I'm having the same problem with WaveState Native in Live 11.3.11. A MIDI monitor placed before WaveState sees the PC message, but it somehow doesn't make it to WaveState (and removing the MIDI monitor doesn't help). Unfortunately, WaveState Nativ...

Hello, in session view, how can I choose in advance which clips will start playing when I click play? The play button next to each clip or scene starts the whole live set playing immediately, which I don't always want. While paused/stopped, I would like to be able to select a set of clips for upcomi...

Ableton Support said this message can appear when your project is saved in a backed-up folder, e.g. a Dropbox folder, and it will go away if you pause Dropbox syncing (or equivalent for other cloud services). This was not the case for me, though. On my computer, the problem is caused by SYNSOPOS.exe...

I just started having this issue when exporting audio. Can't export any audio!

It affects exporting audio for me as well.

I just sent a support email (haven't been using Live for a little while because busy). I'll try to remember to post back here if they find a solution.

Hello,

Every time I try to save my set or use "Collect All and Save," I get this error: There was an error when closing the file "C:\Users\<rest of path>\filename.als." I can only use "Save As" and "Save Copy." What could be causing this?

Hello, I occasionally get an error message saying "<filename> could not be deleted" in Live Suite 11 on Windows 10. Usually it says this about my open .als file when I try to save, and I'm obligated to save as a new file instead. Is there a known way to avoid this? I've also gotten this er...

Thanks for the replies!

Pottering was correct--delay compensation for the disabled effects was still being applied to the live set. That was the main culprit in this case.

Without the FX chain, the delay is too short to measure by the method I described, and barely perceptible to me.

I'm not going to take the time to find an external image server and create an account, but in brief, I found out that "send" and "receive" objects are able to send messages between different running instances of Max, because signal names' scope extends at least throughout an enti...

Is there no way to attach a screenshot to a forum reply?
