I downloaded Ableton Suite 8.2.1 windows version last night. The Setup.exe file will not run. I click on it, it hangs for a while, but nothing happens. I am running Windows Vista. I have installed various versions of Live previously with no problem. Is this something others have seen? Any way to get...

So I'm trying to get 7up working on APC40. Here are the steps I've followed so far (running on Windows Vista): Run MAX Runtime In MAX Runtime open monomulator maxpat file Run 7up Go to monomulator screen enter box prefix, hit return in port boxes - MAX runtime shows binding to Port 8080 Run 7up JAR ...

So I finally got my APC40 on Friday (ordered in May, thanks Musician's Friend). One thing I'd really like to try out is the monomulator from trackteam audio, especially with 7up, but I have to admit that the configuration is probably more confusing than I can figure out. Has anyone been successful i...

Thanks all for the great feedback! very jazzy and lots of cool transitions. are you dropping clips on the the scene or recording extra midi stuff? you definitely keep it flowing without any noticable mistakes Firing off all pre-recorded clips, tweaking a few effects, and mixing levels of various tra...

Looks like this is working now. I guess it just needed some extra time to process before it could be accessed by everyone.

That's annoying. I'm not sure why it is doing this - my other songs on there work fine. Could have something to do with the length of the track?

I'll see what I can do to get this working.

Here's the mix I performed at Redline Hookah Bar in Austin, TX on July 23rd: http://www.imeem.com/people/EbCIw3V/music/9tP7zRku/mattyo-redline-hookah-mix/ Although I've done many gigs in the past in various rock groups playing guitar or bass, this is my first time doing a solo electronic performance...

Great pics! Lots of thanks goes to bosonHavoc for putting together such terrific show. Good room, good music, and good vibes! My favorite thing about the show was that we had four different Ableton Live users with four completely different approaches to using Live and four completely different style...

I pre-ordered mine back in May from Musician's Friend and now I'm finding out that it probably won't ship until the end of July! My patience has run out and I'm starting to get really pissed. A few weeks ago, their customer service folks promised me I'd have it by this week, but it seems like that w...

Slow as in the tempo or as in it takes too long to develop?

Hey folks, I've taken a bit of a departure on my newest track, "Smokey", trying out a more jazz-oriented flavor.

A few random thoughts: If the goal is to record dance music and get it played by other DJs, you may need to focus on a particular style, otherwise go with the flow. I disagree with the James Blunt example where he doesn't make music that he would listen to. I struggled for a long time making music t...

Here's a sweet video: Customize the APC40 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D4YIGfhbCtw Can anyone explain how he is switching to different modes in the video? I understand that he programmed the different modes using Bome, but how does he switch back and forth between them? This looks like a potentia...

I think the confusion is that producer has two different but similar meanings:

In traditional recorded music, the producer is the person who oversees the recording session.

In electronic dance music, the producer is the person who creates the tracks.
