Ableton Forum

I've just downloaded Live 12.02 on Mac M1 and now see that all my Plug Ins are lumped together in ONE list? Is there a way to get back just an AU list, VST3 List etc so they are not all duplicated 3 times in one continuous list? I believe Live 12 browser has changed things around a little with the f...

I've been using Live since 2006, and use it daily for my work. Since Live 11, the full tracks warp is much better for DJing etc so had the 'Auto Warp Long Samples' to ON. This seemed much better, but I did have to tweak and change warp markers after the import towards the end of track. Just turned t...

I've been asked to produce a DJ Mix which is 'phrased' for Fitness so using commercial dance tracks but in phrases of 8 / 16 / 32 bars. Now I usually do my DJ mixes in 'phrases', but is there a quick or 'best' way to do this in Ableton Live 11 to these strict bars? I am thinking of 2 tracks as 2 DJ ...

The only work-around is to do your sound-design and creative tracks in Live 11, and then export to another DAW better suited for TV Sync, like Protools or Reaper.

Not idea I know..

OK so just purchased a Stream Deck XL and struggling to get motivated to use it, as been working and not had time to play properly. I'm looking at using this with a few programs, and other DAW's just to make my life easier when I load up a certain DAW like Ableton, Logic Pro, Reaper. Is anyone using...

I wouldn’t do this with all clips but it might be improved for some clips if you turn on the RAM switch for a few clips. Makes them more quickly accessible by the system.

Great idea, but unfortunately its still the same.
I drag the playhead across the sample and its still glitchy?

For sound design, I was manually dragging the mouse back & forth over an audio file, and recording its output. I have 'permanent scrubbing' on, and am using a 64GB M1 Max Macbook (and 8TB SSD), so have the buffer at 128 (but have tried some other settings) Is there a way to stop the crackles and...

Thanks Christian61 I will have a look at Better Touch Tool, as this is all new to me. I didnt really want to install lots of different Apps, so maybe the Mouse stuff I still do, but the Stream Deck does look good as its customizable, programmable, and hardware buttons! Been looking on Youtube and so...

Ok so it can only map key commands from buttons, keys and not Mouse Moveable things?

There are no predefined mappings / plugins for Live in Streamdeck I could use... my main purpose for SD was initially to easily find and load my VST / FX and don't have to search everytime in the Live Browser for them... * * * there some paid DAW setups like here: https://www.sideshowfx.net/ableton...

Thanks Christian! This is really interesting, and the google images look great. It gives a great insight into what the Stream Deck can do without learning the key commands! And I guess you can set this up for not only Ableton, but Logic, etc too? Very interested in your Stream Deck keys, like MIDI p...

Does anyone here use a Stream Deck with Ableton? Just looking at one and weighing up the benefits and what it can do with Live? For example, does the Stream Deck with Ableton just store quick actions for simple things in Live, or does it allow for multiple actions at once, under one key/button to ta...

Just recorded a lot of live vocals, directly into Ableton as part of various projects. So there were a lot of unused vocals and, mistakes, which I deleted from showing in the arrangement view. How do I get rid of these takes/unused deleted recordings forever and permanently, to free up space? I've '...

If you need real shortcuts for this, without even the need to fiddle around the detailed clip view, M4L is your friend

Funnily enough I did buy some of your shortcuts inc this one, and BiP!
I haven't installed yet as im migrating over to another M1 Mac

try the up/down keys when the pitch knob is selected.

Thanks! i'm sure i tried that, but its working now.
Looks like they switched it round from Live 10 when it was < > which is what threw me!
