Yeh I'm with everyone else here - why tf has this been taken away? A straight forward shortcut to hide all additional windows on the bottom of the screen is part of the deal - just like every other version since Live 4. Or maybe this is the start of 'Logic bloat' where too many modular, addon ...

Just found it. That’s exactly what I’m wanting to do. Many thanks!

Ah can it? Thanks, that’s good to know. Am still using 11 and haven’t rushed to upgrade for practical reasons just yet. Is it possible you can link me to any info?

Hi,

Is there a way to stretch a midi pattern exponentially over time so that it slows down? I'm sure I've done this before but forgotten how.

I know I can stretch the pattern to be longer with markers within the midi clip but this just seems to stretch the whole section to be slower (or faster if ...

Hey Theo, in answer to your question, the clues in the title - I'm using the Arpeggiator and Scale - stock plugins that come with Ableton. : )

What's liquid music?

Many thanks guys, yes I guess I'm asking the impossible. Random Other was the option I was playing around with and have found if I use a wide spacing chord then I can reduce the frequency of repeated notes. Thanks again. : )

Hi,

What I want to do is generate arpeggiator patterns through the scale plugin that don't repeat notes.

When using the arp plus the scale plugin, when some notes are forced into whatever the chosen scale is, sometimes notes tend to repeat, for instance an a# is selected to play an a instead ...

Thanks again. People. Yeh Hackintosh is out the picture for me - I don't have the knowledge or time to get to grips with a personal build for now and that's the only way I'd do that, though I'd love to sometime.

@jlgrimes - I'm actually using Ableton for guitar processing laying down occasional ...

Thanks guys for all your input. Yeh I'm thinking bite the bullet for a new mbp. Devil you know and all that I guess. Hackintosh is a bit beyond me but that sounds like an interesting set up!

Thanks again.

thanks Tarekith. I have to agree I've yet to see anything other than a Macbook being used on stage in a live situation. This is the kind of thing I'm talking about though -

Background: I transitioned from an MPC2000XL in 2004 to a PPC G5. Thing was built like a tank. It ran till I could upgrade it no more. Bought a second hand white macbook 2006, around 2007. Still got it. Still DJ with it. :D Saw a dude running a live PA off the same model just the other day!

Then ...

Thanks dude. Typically have just got it working and is now fine. My mates computer had the wrong Ethernet preferences on - had on manual IP address rather than straight DHCP. Doh.
Thanks for the swift response!
Peace!

Hi,

We're trying to connect and run in sync two MacBooks using ableton Link. We can sync the two machines via wifi connection but ableton states that you can also do the same thing via LAN. Unfortunately we've tried all possibilities, including trying different cables incase that was the problem ...

Aaaah....I sometimes sketch in session then flip to arrangement and obviously don't realise they're there. Thanks B.

Is it possible to delete references to missing samples at all? When samples (usually external) are removed from a set I get that red bar at bottom of screen saying samples are missing blah blah blah. What I want to do is remove the original references for these files, not search for them again, but ...
