Well for some reason the xlr/trs combo jacks (inputs 1 and 2) don't work but I got it working in the straight trs jacks (inputs 3 and 4) The condenser mic doesn't work in the xlr inputs either (phantom is on) but I can hear it thru the monitors. There must be some quirk with the motu. I think I'll ...

Yep, the monitor is set to 'in'. I also tried every configuration of the input/audio from setting, master, ext in etc...no go...

Hello all, I'm returning to Live after a couple years. I have a new DAC (MOTU Audio Express) and I can't seem to get an input signal. I can hear it through the monitors and I can load clips into Live and hear them back. I can also get an input signal fine while using Sonar. I have the input ...

Never mind, I see what the problem is...adjusting instruments w/ a long-ish attack time i.e. violin, horn... a very subtle change. I tried it on tympani and the result was immediately apparent. All good.

Ok, I misunderstood the velocity editor. I did use the mod wheel for volume adj while playing and I thought I could adjust individual notes that came out too loud due to, say hitting the key too hard while recording the midi. Is there any way to do that, or do I have to punch in and redo those ...

Hmmm, ok I'm betraying more ignorance here. What is a .als?

The project is a midi orchestral score that I played in to Live using GPO/Kontact player and a microKorg. The interface is a MOTU microlite. I have tried adjusting the violin, horns, bass, but all have the same results. I'm just using the ...

Hello all, I must be doing something wrong with the velocity editor. I can adjust the markers, no problem, but the adjustments seem to have no effect on the dynamics in playback. I am editing midi that I imput using GPO. I also tried using the draw tool along with the ctrl key to change groups of ...

Wunderbar! I found it...the Dll clue was the key. Thanks!

Greetings all, I am new to Live and have been going thru the lessons. I am trying to insert Garritan Personal Orch as a plug in, but I have not been successful. I clicked "activate" in the plug-in icon and browsed to locate Garritan but wasn't sure exactly what to look for. Should there be something ...

Brilliant! Thanks folks. I checked out Synful's demos. Yes, rather amazing...and that pedal definitely looks to be the way to go too.

I am music director of a community opera company and am looking for a way so supplement our piano accompaniment with some midi orchestral sounds. Has anyone used Live for this or a similar purpose? I haven't purchased the software yet, but it was recommended to me as a good way to go since tempo ...
