I have a Marimba instrument in a project I'm recording into Logic via Rewire. It behaves very erratically in rewire mode, in a way I can hardly explain. Example: in the last play through of the song, the section comes around where I play marimba on keys. Any given note of that instrument will only ...

What do you mean? Rewire stops working after 30 minutes?


Yes, I get a pop-up dialog at 30 minutes of use saying something to the effect of "this version is only available for 30 minutes and will now close". Gives me no chance to save or anything. The second I press OK, it closes the program. If ...

Is this unique to the trial version or is this always the case?

Bumping this because I cannot find the answer anywhere. I really don't think this is an issue with the interface, seeing as all other DAWs catch the audio fine.

from the pics all looks correct.
so i would say the problem (or a wrong configuration) is in the Apollo.

and in other DAWs it works like it should...? this is strange...

sorry, but MAC is not my system and from here i can not help yo further...


Yup, Pro Tools and Logic are both totally ...

does the fader react to the input or is there no input at all?
how is the routing in this Audio Track applied?
maybe a screenshot could help to see if your routing is correct?

and the hardware configuration in the Live preferences is correct too?


No metering. No sound.

I have routing on this ...

what is if you chose another output, not the Apollo?
what speakers/headphones are connected to the apollo? (maybe a defect there)
is there a monitor option that you have to activate/deactivate?


The output is not the issue.I hear everything else happening in the project, except the audio track ...

Looking to start recording some audio into a session I've been working on. It will be my first time using my interface to send audio into Live. I have configured my Apollo Twin within Live such that all inputs are active, yet I see/hear no signal hitting the track when I set the input accordingly ...

Hey guys. Looking to lay down recordings for a Session View-based performance I've built. My understanding is that if I press Record, anything happening in Session should translate over to the arrangement. That works for me up to this point: I'm able to press record and every instrument gets ...

Looking to deactivate a couple of notes that I don't need on a sub bass instrument. I think the easiest way is to deactivate in the MIDI clip, unless someone knows a better way? Anyhow, that option is not available (grey) in my piano roll. Any insight here? Thanks!

Looking to hopefully trigger the sysex commands to switch presets on my MPK. Tried outputting midi to Sysex Librarian, which doesn’t seem to talk back to my controller despite having caught the Sysex dump from the keyboard. I’ve posted this in Max For Live forum also, but it’s a little quiet over ...

Hey guys. So, first thing is first, I have absolutely ZERO experience making M4L devices, and same with Sysex in general. I watched a video on the extreme basics of M4L, but it’s very daunting. However, I am on the hunt for any lead about how I can send Sysex messages to my MPK261 to change presets ...

I have two assignments in my live set that keep resetting back to something different a few seconds after I assign them. This is a new development, and I've not the slightest clue what the deal is. Any ideas?

Edit: as always, I've figured it out just after posting. Seems my modulation wheel is ...

I just picked up an MPK261 used on Reverb (very good shape) to consolidate my keys/pads. I've gotten it fired up and and am having some very unusual mapping problems. Only on the LiveLite preset (and only on one "slice to MIDI" track), it has remapped my keys such that B4 lands on C#6. C5 lands on ...

Yes, I use SS2 with Live, works fine. It's a bit clunky sometimes, software wise.

If you have the LOAD message permanently showing, you need to reinstall the firmware.
I have had that problem a few times - seemingly randomly. And the FW reinstall always fixed that.

Standalone mode works OK for ...
