re:Akai MPD-32 and Drum Rack scrolling question

Thanks revA. MPD32 is correctly set as control surface. MPD pad bank A maps OK by default. MPD band bank B maps OK to a different set of Live pads by default which is great. But when I press MPD pad bank C or D they seem to overlap pads in the live drumrack. ie-MPD pad bank C pad 1 plays the same Li...

Akai MPD-32 and Drum Rack scrolling question

Hi, Can't seem to get this to work properly, I'm probably doing someing really stupid so any suggestions much appeciated. I'm using the MPD-32 default Live template and have Pad Bank A selected on the MPD. All 16 MPD pads map perfectly to the first 16 pads in Live Drum Rack. Nice. When I press Pad B...

Re: Does it exisit?

I had the same issue, I don't think it exisits yet. I looked at the Bitstream 3x but found it a flimsy, too many buttons/controllers and the killer thing for me, the cross fader is sooo small and not in the right place for 'proper' DJ'ing using Live. No crossfader on the Novation but you may not nee...

RE: Is the Ti any Good - Is the pope Catholic?

I've had my Ti Polar for 6 months and it is simply amazing. Yes it's expensive but imho worth every single penny and then some. It you write house/techno/trance the presets alone will blow your mind (and there are zillions of them) You can also download for free more that 2000 from the access websit...

re: controller

Ummm slight design flaw. The crossfader is not in the middle of the mixer. Maybe OK for some but that would be a def no no for me.

What about this baby...36 clip launching buttons, faders, knobs, and the crossfader is in the right position!!

Drum Rack resizing

Finding the new Drum Rack really hard to use. I just want to see all my slots on one screen (like impulse) rather than using the slide bar to see each 4x4 grid. It doesnt not seem possible to drag the drum rack up to make it bigger? Luckily i have good eye sight but its not just that, lots of extra ...

Been running 7.0.1 with Ti Polar (OS 2.5.1) on an oldish PC (3.2Ghz P4 2GB Corsair RAM) for a few days now and it's been absolutley rock solid. 16 Ti Polar Tracks coming into Live all bang on time. Nice! btw I use the Ti Polar as my soundcard for Live so MIDI and AUDI come into live via 1 USB cable....

Naming tracks and IMPULSE

A couple of suggestions that always get me... 1. Double click a track/column heading to rename it. You currently have to right click the track heading and select 'Rename'. 2. Drag and drop samples into IMPULSE slots via the associated IMPULSE MIDI clip rows (as well as the actual IMPULSE slots). Cur...

That's what I'm talking about

I'm talking about dual DSP hardware chips on the virus creating 80 note poly but taking up zero CPU! Oh and the virus is also my soundcard, midi interface, effects unit and midi controller (for Live 6 and various soft synths) all via one USB cable. Wasn't trying to start a hardware v soft synth deba...

RE: Audio editor

Soundforge 8. Very powerful, half the price of Wavelab and at the moment comes with a couple of free software applications: Noise Reduction 2.0 plugin and CD Architect - for final mastering of your CD's. I've used Audacity (didn't like it at all - too basic and really hard to use) but its free I sup...
