Completely unhelpful but still - I've got tickets to the very same show and am definitely going, should be mint! Wish I had bought tickets for LCD Soundsystem in Manchester - by the time I got round to it they'd sold out :(

I always manage to either buy tickets for shows I can't go to, or buy one ...

My band use Live. But that question depends on whether you think we're good or not :D

As for established bands...one called 65daysofstatic use Live on stage - electronic beats/post-rock kinda stuff, extremely good. www.65daysofstatic.com

The m30 seems good to me so far...decent amount of faders and stuff, only one of them's lost the rubber cover but still works! Been bashed around a bit but no problem as yet...

I'm living in Manchester at the moment, down in Altrincham...been using Live for the past couple of years with my own stuff and for my band, for beats, synths and odd noises to go with the guitar and vox. Just finishing off mixing our demo in it too...managing to cripple my laptop :lol:

Re: Program for mixing 2+ virtual outputs on single stereo o

have you tried opening up m-audio's control panel?
I do believe you can assign multple outs on one stereo channel.

Cheers for the reply - however, the scenario I'm aiming for is where the FW410 isn't connected; I'm trying to listen to sets created with the FW410's multiple outs used without the ...

Program for mixing 2+ virtual outputs on single stereo out?

Hola.

I have a laptop, and use a FW410 with it's many outputs as my main soundcard. This is working fine, nice sound, many outs, lovely, no problems.

However, setting up the laptop and external soundcard with all the power supplies and whatever is a pain in the arse for a quick fiddle in Live, but ...

I've had one for the last year or so, gigged with it many times and it's still functioning perfectly. It is built like a tank and even with the way my gear gets ...

I have to agree with SongCarver. I currently use Live primarily in a relatively traditional band setup, triggering scenes (as verses, choruses, middle 8s, weird extra bits, etc) in a more-or-less rigidly controlled structure via a midi pedal. With each song is set up as described, I need to load a ...

Cheers Mr Smart, that sounds just the ticket! I shall have a go at that tonight!

I'm using the ReDrum seq. at the moment as I find it a lot easier to whack in a straight 4/4 rhythm & simple embellishments (for writing stuff at rehearsals) in ReDrum than Live, and same for when I can't be bothered ...
