Ableton Forum

Hey everyone,

So, I switched to Mac some time ago, and overall, I don't regret it, but some weird things have happened with Ableton since the switch.

Particularly, on some projects, I simply can't resize my search bar (the one where all the plugs, effects, samples, and other stuff appears ...

I've also been experiencing the same issue and I think the previous comment from yur2die4 has some valuable insights. What I've noticed is that it mainly happens for audio clips. If you only have MIDI you are good as in all the online examples (Youtube) of automating the tempo in Ableton. It is ...

Hey,

So I've been using it a while now, and for the past year or so, it's been doing this weird thing that at one point the project is out of sync with the moving cursor. What I mean by that is that the cursor is moving past the part of a track but it's playing later. I then turned delay ...

Hey,

Does anyone know of there is an automatic guitar chord voicing generator in Ableton? (I have the live 11 suite version) I know that Cubase has that in their MIDI editor so that's very handy but I reckon Ableton should have something similar. Maybe it's a Live for Max plugin/extension or ...

Hey everyone,

I'm quite confused about the group track in Ableton and if it acts as an auxiliary track or not. As I see it, any signals/tracks you have under a group/bus will be sent directly to it with all of their inserts as opposed to a return track that only gets a copy. However, I am still ...

Thanks!

The send copy will have all the track's FX on it.
You do, however, have a choice of whether the send is taken Pre-Fader (after the track FX, but before the Volume Fader of the track) or Post-Fader. By default it is Post-Fader.

If you want to send the signal dry to the Reverb before the track's ...

Hey,

I was wondering if I have a track with some plugins running in series on it (let's assume an EQ & Compressor), and then I decide to send that track to a send with just a reverb, will the sent signal have those effects as well or will it be a completely dry version of the signal?

Thanks in ...

Does anyone know if the processing of the signal works differently on groups rather than on individual tracks?
What I mean is that the faders for the volume increase differently than on individual channels, specifically less audible volume increase from the grouped track, rather than an individual ...

Ok Ok.. I know this is a really newbie type question,but for the life of me I can't seem figure out how to record in mono with Live. I do read my manual,but still i'm lost. =( A lil help here?

Thx


For me the utility plugin hasn't worked on a group of 2 tracks with the same sound: one in the ...

Another idea is to route each cell of your drum track to its own audio track. Then you can just use the good old regular send and return method as with other non-drum rack tracks.

I love this approach...it can just take a little time to set up, especially if you have a large drum rack.


Great ...

you're better off putting another reverb on that rack slot. or making a new track with the drum kit and reverb in it.

racks aren't meant to be used like that, they're a subset of a track without routing available like that.


Yeah, but if you want to put 4 reverbs on different instruments from ...

The Sends are by dB, not %, dB is not linear, so it is hard to dial exactly "80%". They default to Post-fader, so the Track/Chain's fader affects both the Track/Chain's and Send's gain.

So, does that mean that by adjusting the fader of the return track to the amount you want you would actually in ...

Maybe it's bias but it seems that when I have a reverb on a return track inside the drum rack and I fully send the signal to that return, it still doesn't give the same wet effect if I would have the reverb on the actual track on 80% and up, even if I send all of the sound.

Has anyone else ...

How does the grouping option in Ableton exactly work? It seems that when I increase the volume on the grouped tracks track it increases it less than if I would increase it on the separate tracks by the same number of dBs. Do the grouped tracks get increased differently in volume compared to the ...
