in my experience live isn't exactly rock steady when set as master - use hardware as the master and live as the slave - works for me!

I'm guessing that you're directing me to the manual here! - and in Live 5, the relevant section is 23.1 and yes I have read it! Yes I can sync Live to the EMX-1, but I don't want to route the midi out from the EMX-1 into the access virus [I don't want to do this, because I don't want to trigger note...

...or after rendering, you can use the fantastic freeware Audacity to convert a Wav to MP3 with the option to edit the tags and to choose the quality.

confused about routing midi sync for hardware and Live

I've read the manual, and I think I've tried every combination. I just can't get my head around it. I've read that it is best to sync midi to hardware rather than to Live. I want to sync Live 5, and my access virus classic to my electribe EMX-1 so that when I use the EMX1 to programme drums, I can s...

According to Rekon... "There is a problem in Cakewalk Sonar and Ableton Live where these hosts are not sending MIDI Poly Pressure messages from a VST correctly. This WILL affect the VST Virus Editor, since it relies on Poly Pressure messages for transmissions of patch data. This issue MAY affec...

I am an idiot

sorry - I must be losing the plot. I could have sworn that I had managed to open mini-host inside Live - but you are quite right - I hadn't. What I had done was open it at the same time. Because both Live and minihost were making sounds I thought I had cracked it. The problem is that although I can ...

? workaround for using rekon audio in Live

I notice that you can use a plug-in host like mini-host to run the access virus interface from rekon audio, http://www.tobybear.de/p_minihost.html according to rekon, mini-host can host the access interface with full functionality, and I have tried opening minihost in LIve and it works fine. Could a...

Using Rekon Audio Access Virus VST Controller with Live

Hi I notice that on the Rekon website, it says that their Virus controller isn't fully functional with Ableton Live 4 although I think some people do find it OK? http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=48553&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight= Rekon http://www.rekonaudio...

Actually there are some useful tips on getting the kick drum to really punch through in this month's Computer Music magazine [UK]. As far as I recall, they suggest layering two or more samples, using a notch filter in the main mix to cut some space for the kick so it doesn't end up mushy, using comp...

THe reKon controller for access virus looks VERY interesting. A must-buy when it comes out; assuming it will work for Virus Classic.

I love my virus sounds, but I hate the bloody menus. I think those buttons are going to give me RSI!

Is the soundcard used in rendering?

Probably a daft question, but I don't know the answer

Does it make any difference if I use my laptop's soundcard or my m-audio audiophile external for rendering? Or is it all done by the PC?
