Re: Any way to display "---" ?

Sorry - I think I may have misinterpreted your issue. On reflection, it seems the problem is [live.numbox] doesn't have the capability to display anything except numbers? In that case, I would place an opaque display (but transparent to mouse) over the [live.numbox] and patch some logic to have the ...

Re: Arrangement View takes over Export Length

I picked up a handy tip somewhere on here that works well for this scenario. Insert a MIDI track at the top of the Arrangement View, double-click to create a MIDI clip on this track and resize this clip to the length you want to render / export (also, allign to the start of your for-export arrangeme...

Re: Split a WAV Stereo file (in Ableton) into 2 mono tracks

I think what he means is you don't have to route outside Live, you could just duplicate the track with the stereo file and use Utility - or route within Live and use Utility - the external loopback is superfluous (and adds a full duplex worth of latency). It's still bloody convoluted, mind you . . ....

Any reason you can't just automate from the Group Track automation lanes?

Re: using an external ssd

Thanks for this - good to hear that it doesn't essentially matter where stuff goes. Yes I learnt with another mbp that you need to turn the internet off otherwise all kinds of problems of sets not loading as HDs maxed out etc. Is at least 20% free always a good rule to apply? Cheers Well, when I sa...

Re: using an external ssd

It doesn't particularly matter where you put stuff, but you really need to free up some space on that internal SSD ASAP before it shits the bed. Depending on how it's been overprovsioned (extra capacity, not visible or available to the user), you're likely pushing it toward failure much faster than ...

Re: How to configure the control room setup for the master and cue outputs?

[edit]

I think you should take a look at Blue Cat Audio Connector, and their ASIO driver.

Seems like it should solve the problem.

Re: How to configure the control room setup for the master and cue outputs?

I don't know about the "cue" but you can certainly achieve this easily for the mixdown. Essentially you have to set up your own bussing using the "Audio To" and "Audio From" dropdown in the mixer, and route your mixdown to this buss (track). Creat an audio track. Name i...

Re: room/headphone correction plugins and Live's broswer...

One potential solution is to use Blue Cat Audio Connector; https://www.bluecataudio.com/Products/Product_Connector/ Send from Live to any standalone plugin host - think of it like a pseudo-systemwide setup, where you can choose exactly which apps get the "systemwide" treatment as opposed t...

Re: Channel EQ. Is it non-linear?

Sure, I understand any and all saturation / distortion is a nonlinear process etc - it's just I hadn't ever seen the terms broken out like this before in regards to EQ. It was the terminology that threw me slightly - insofar as "linear-drive" is a term I hadn't encountered before. I was, h...

Re: Channel EQ. Is it non-linear?

It would be very odd if the channelEQ was linear phase as the big daddy EQ8 got a lot of work from Andy Cytomic and others to make it linear drive, linear drive means if you put a sine in you get a sine out. Its not turning sines into saturated driven waves. But linear phase is about temporal corre...
