Re: Way to page left / right through tracks in Push 2?

Whilst in other modes (eg Note) you can keep the Session button held down (to temporarily access Session mode) and use Page Left/Right.

Re: Maschine Studio

I use the Maschine 2 VST (with the Studio controller) in Live for 95% of my Drum and Percussion parts. I made a Group template in Live with 16 Midi tracks: 1 Maschine instance and 15 External Instruments... each track has it's own audio input and will trigger each Maschine channel. 1-16 in both case...

Re: How to change color of individual drum pads

We're not able to change the Pad color (which I'd love to be able to do a la Maschine)

Not quite as good but you can change the individual Drum Chain track in a Drum Rack (so the Track buttons under the display can have a customized color, which is at least handy for the Mixer settings).

Re: Push 2 Left to Right Scrolling

If you keep the 'Session' button held down you can use the Page buttons to move left and right by banks of 8.

Re: Maschine 1.x to MK2 ("VST Plug-in could not be found")

Maschine and Maschine2 are two different plug-ins (they can exist side-by-side but the 2 vst does not automatically replace the 1 vst). Live will always try to load the 1.x vst if that was what was saved in the project. You can import 1.x projects/kits/etc into Maschine 2 but you're going to have to...

Re: Apollo Twin with Live 9 Suite

Apologies for the semi-shameless plug... I'm currently selling my Twin Duo. ( see: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=429397&p=6005467#p6005467 ) Not sure if you're interested (as it comes with quite a few extra UAD plug-ins) but thought I'd mention it. I really love this int...

Re: I feel like I cant achieve a good mix like others

Not sure if this is up your alley but I watched this set of tutorials last night ( Not free but perhaps worth the purchase)... More of a track blow by blow but had some nice production tips, mostly in Logic but translatable to Live: http://www.macprovideo.com/tutorial/ear-104-tilt-falling-again-deco...

Re: How good is an Apollo for Effects/Plugins?

I bought an Apollo Twin Duo in March and love it. A quality unit and great for zero-latency audio recording (you monitor the recorded signal through the UAD software itself, not Live's audio channel) As far as plugins go, it is easy to max out the CPU on the Duo with only a few choice plugins active...

Re: Audio Quality with Maschine as a vst.

Haven't had any problems like that with M2 in Live (but I am on OSX).

Does anything change when Rapture is taken out of the equation? (just a guess) and also, what version of Maschine are you running (2.1.1?)

Re: L9.05 final - CPU & audio buffer glitch on move note

I can repro here on OSX, 10.8.4, 9.0.5 64bit.

Huge rise in CPU usage even with the project not playing!

Same thing (though not as dramatic) happens here with dragging a clip around Session view.
