Re: Using with 3rd party VSTs?

You really only have to use the configure button and save device as a preset... or pick new ones every time:

Re: Ableton says THANKS with two free Live Packs........

just to throw my hat in the ring- and since there are indications this feedback is going somewhere- I really would much rather have seen a proper deal offered on M4L once a year and never see partner instrument samples or live packs again. I realize a lot of people like loops and like presets- to me...

Re: Battery 3

To each his own- but for me, battery was pretty much the end of a lot of repetitive tweaking and layering tasks I used to do in drum racks. I used to program on machines though- so I tend to enjoy a nice GUI. I still use the hell out of drum racks- but battery is my goto for getting things going in ...

Re: Tips on useing the launchpad in live?

well. user banks 1 and 2 can be assigned to whatever effects you like- for knobs just hold down the length of buttons you want to adjust on and then fine tune that in the midi mapping editor. launchpad can be configured to do whatever you like- but if you are just getting cracking with it I suggest ...

Re: A way to get tempo data from Reason when Rewired to Live ?

I think, technically, that would be something to talk to the Props about. Ableton is just doing its job and acting as the master in the master/slave rewire relationship- which props is only allowed to act as the slave. Reason/Record do their job, in turn, and assume the new project tempo. imho, havi...

It's funny- I hadn't used the delay formula since whenever everything went bpm friendly... WHAT WAS I THINKING? Bring on the formula tuts!!!!

Re: Best tutorials EVER!

1. these tuts are not too fast at all. 2. I guess Mr. Bill's voice might have bothered me if I was trying to look clever or had ADD and wasn't watching the tuts. :D 3. Went in with an open mind even on tuts I had no inclination to learn for myself and still picked up some great workflow tips and tim...

Re: Best tutorials EVER!

Currently rocking out to Suave and while I am in a cheap way at the present- I did the whole "HAI ERRYBODY LISTEN TO THIS RIGHT NOW" thing on facebook... Great stuff- the record I have wanted all day. I got ...serious... too- and also am really digging it. Thanks for the tunes and some goo...

Re: Anyone else getting p*ssed off having to beg for auths?

As far as the "been there, done that"- I have called Ableton several times and they have rarely done anything BUT bend over backwards to help me. I typically speak to the same people every time and have actually had discussions with some staff where we concluded we actually knew a bunch of...

Yeah... I have never ever had even a minute of trouble with this- all you have to do is tell them what you're doing- I think they are remarkably flexible on this.

Re: Help. How do I make this effect?

Don't do the Cher/Kanye West style autotune effect! It's not worth it! ;) Well played :D And I totally agree that that particular use of the effect was pretty well over before it began- but - I do hate the sort of prevalent anti-attitude to form around it because there is always room to add a skill...

Re: Help. How do I make this effect?

I think it is kind of funny when people show how little they know about autotune by using the average joe "cher" complaints etc. Yeah- singers should be able to sing- but sometimes a take needs some massaging to sit right in mixes even when the good singers hit it- maybe the take was rushe...

Re: Why Do DJs DJ? The "Cool Factor"

I enjoyed this article- I will say this- I didn't find the piece hypocritical- but after years working as a musician and designer I know that one treads dangerous ground when one begins to assume that traditional qualifications (i.e. formal musical knowledge/ art school etc) are the only way to begi...

ftr- not advocating permanent engagement of the no trip feature myself- rather- but suggesting mapping as much or as little of beat repeat as needed for super happy fun times.... :D
