I use Move mostly as a recorder in conjunction with other gear, so I either record synth jams or drumloops from other grooveboxes into a drum sampler.
Though I can program sample start offsets into Move's sequencer, it gets a bit tedious.
Slicing is not really an option here with longer samples and ...

...can the APC 40 mk2 also be used as a generic midi controller? And if so, is it possible to have presets or banks or whatever to access all 128 CCs with the knobs and faders? I'm thinking about getting one, but unfortunately, Akai's documentation doesn't mention anything about that (at least I ...

...so, please implement a sample manager and create a dedicated pad controller that is able to control browser, clips, fx, automation - everything. As a concept with all the clips, tracks & scenes Live can already work like Maschine, but it would be so cool if there would be something that could ...

...a special curve mode for the draw tool which lets you choose between a sine, triangle and square wave to draw in some automation. I know that drawing in a triangle or a square is fairly easy, but sines are not and I think this way square and triangle automation can be drawn in a lot faster.

I ...

...a plug-in like the FL Studio wave traveller...

...region markers for the sample view of a clip to mark the different parts of a track - pretty handy for djing...

...some feature requests I'd like to add (in the order of their importance):

1. a tag-based sample manager/database like the cubase media bay or the ni kore browser.

2. better handling for multi-timbral vsti's. It's stupid to set up three tracks, if you want to use a multi-timbral instrument on ...

Sorry for the harsh title, but can anybody explain this to me? Or tell me what I might be doing wrong? I have finally decided to use Live as my main sequencer for its ease of use and flexibility and to ditch Cubase 4 instead (although I really regret that Live doesn't offer a sample management tool ...

...I guess, there's no other way to use Live Clips with Rex-Files without having to "import" them. Can anybody confirm this?

It's the same with Sampler and Kontakt's NKI-Files. If I remember correctly Live's Sampler is also importing all the samples from a Kontakt file while loading it...

...does anyone know, if there's a way to avoid that a Rex-File is saved once again when saving a Live Clip containing a drum rack with the slices of this Rex-File? All I want to have is this Live Clip of this drum rack referring to the original Rex-File. Instead Live creates a new project folder ...

- possibility to record automation to Session view

...do you mean recording automation to an already existing clip? Unfortunately I don't have any controller right at hand, but if I remember correctly you have to use this setting...

..I would love to see that, too...

Trigger Finger - more knobs & sliders, better quality of the box

Padkontrol - better pads, x/y-controller



...assuming you don't drop your controller regulary, I'd vote for the Padkontrol. Its pads are better, it has an x/y controller and the quality difference of the box's quality is somewhat ...

...oooh, +1!

If so, we're all fucked.

...unfortunately I haven't the time right now to read the eight pages on this discussion, but since I'm quite enthusiastic about the sample offset feature I'd like to add a few comments. Basically I think it's correct to compare the results of the sample-offset feature with the ones you can achieve ...
