Re: Live 12 won't launch

Looks like a ray of hope. Deactivate the functionality on incapable machines and grey out the relevant button. As I think of it, what techniques are used by plugins - none of the plugins on the market using avx2? How about the ones which tackle sample similarities, such as those from waves and xln a...

Ryzen 5 5600u for Ableton 12

Hi Partly due to the AVX2 issue, I am thinking of replacing my age-old but capable thinkpad x230. Checking by processors rather than laptop brands, I have found AMD Ryzen 5 5600U to do well. Not sure how this translates to Ableton though, so I would appreciate comments and suggestions. I am aware th...

Re: VST2 is in the way out, Steinberg will terminate SDK licenses

That sounds excellent, cids. Or just proper. Having done some programming in the past, it keeps puzzling me when incompatibilities even get to the attention of the user. They could all be ironed out under the hood in advance. I think the mobile apps market is more trained in it, with users of all wa...

Re: Live 12 reference manual DISCONTINUED BOOOOOO

I know this is not what you guys are after but will the free gemini AI be of no help? When it comes to searching, it should be superior to ctrl+F.
Just a thought.

Re: Live 12 won't launch

Okay, so you wouldn't have an incentive to find out.
How about folks who run huge projects, vst2 & 3, multisamples, with video ?

Re: Live 12 won't launch

Those who can run AL12, can you notice any performance improvement relative to 11 that could be linked with VX2?

Does anyone know if it still works on Ableton 12?

Re: Live 12 won't launch

What is this AVX2 improving, by the way? Live's interface dates back its v1 visually (for the best, actually). Can't see how modern machines should need any extra props with gfx specifically. Looks like a questionable, limiting design choice. Next comes usb3.3 only ;) Strangely, some user on steam c...

Best value-for-money second-hand laptop processors for Ableton 12

It used to be thinkpad x230's i-5 3320M for some time according to some sources - extremely cheap given the overclocked performance it delivered per dollar. I wonder what that looks like in 2024, considering both the generalised performance to price and ableton architecture. Read in this forum that ...

Generic clip naming as a versioning tool

Keep getting back to this because unless automated smartly, clip naming remains obsolete. Yet another possibility would be an option to have generic clip naming based on the track name, with index numbering added automatically each time a clip was modified uniquely. So imagine scenario Create a new ...

Midi notes / waveform still visible in parameter automation view

It would really help with polyrhythms to have an idea of how the notes / waveform looks when tweaking automation in session view, especially when dealing with lengths of automation unlinked. A long automation lane would see wave/ notes looped.

Re: Locking a plugin window to always be visible?

A great feature indeed. Setting to be remembered between sessions (with plugin positioning on the desktop), so that some of those plugins might be pinned in project template.

In-group track does not have to feed into group fx!

What a great thing to have a choice. you can put a track in a group only to have its clips triggered with grouped tracks but the output may go to master - or any other group. The best of both worlds :)

This also means that to go through a group's fx, a track does not have to be sat in the group.

Bar time metering in sampler for tail control automation

This will make you able to use samples with an onset, a loop and a tail very conveniently. Imagine recording a techno ride loop of 3 bars, wheere rides start playing in bar 1, loop in bar 2 and have a tail in bar 3. if you want to use it as a clip, you will always have to be mindful of adding the ta...
