Re: Color the clips

Not questioning why you want to do this, but FYI the transparency indicates that the clips are being ignored (since "In" means you only hear the live sound coming from the input).

Re: can't hear drums from MT-Powerdrumkit when opening live set

You need to open the plug-in window and dismiss the pop-up. If you want to avoid this, you can buy a license.

One reason it's not so simple is that you can map several controls to one macro. Different controls with different units and ranges.
What units should it show then?
Just like with stock Ableton devices: switch to showing a generic integer value only at that point.

Re: Drum rack showing unwanted un-named midi notes

Guessing this should go to Feature Wishlist as well.

Re: Macros with proper units of measurement

Can you clarify what you mean? See the right hand side of my screenshot: units of measurement are correctly displayed in the "Configure" section. The same values could be shown below the macro knobs. What am I missing that makes this problematic?

Re: .asd files - any way to keep them somewhere else?

This would be a nice option to have. Sometimes I import a file from my music library to use as a backing track, and I'd rather not pollute that with .asd files. They could be saved to an alternative folder in the User Library (e.g. User Library/Analysis) or maybe along with other Ableton configurati...

Re: Media Files Missing even after "Collect All and Save"

Are you saving the set in a cloud-synced folder (like Google Drive, OneDrive, iCloud, or Dropbox)?

Macros with proper units of measurement

Many VST3 plug-ins properly communicate the units of measurement for parameters to Live. Indeed, both the Configure section of a loaded plug-in and Push show the correct units. However, once you map a parameter to a rack macro, it shows up as a generic MIDI (0-127) value. It seems it should be fairl...

Re: Drum rack showing unwanted un-named midi notes

I encountered the same issue, and gave up on grouping. For drum VSTs (where multiple notes/pads map to the same audio out) I just collapse the no-output tracks as thin as possible, and move them to the end of the rack, so when mixing I just focus on the tracks that output (see picture, I hope that m...

Re: Live 11.3 zero byte files

I'm 99% sure pausing sync will prevent this from happening. It's just difficult to remember to do that every time, so I'm just keeping Drive turned off from now on and only doing a daily sync. Hope this helps.

Re: Live 11.3 zero byte files

A couple of questions: 1. Do you save your projects on cloud storage such as Google Drive? 2. Does this tend to happen with larger audio clips? If this is your situation, there is no good solution other than pausing cloud sync while you use Ableton. There appears to be a race condition between Ablet...

Re: Which pack is this rack from?

Any chance you also have a preset called "Birdy Mallets" in some pack? This one has no samples but I'm still curious where I got it from.

Re: Parallel Walls (Drone/Ambient)

I like it! Nice, expansive sound without overdoing the processing.
Some of the samples in the second half I found a bit jarring. The conversation bits are nice but the other percussive or synthetic sound effects seem a bit out of place to me.
Curious to hear the rest of the album.

Re: live 11 crashing all the time

I get frequent crashes related to VST3. In particular, it seems to always happen on projects where I have one or more instances of Scuffham S-Gear. I've seen it crash when: - Loading another VST3 (either another instance of S-Gear or an unrelated plugin) - Swapping a VST3 preset - Saving project as ...
