Ableton Forum

Was wondering if any of the better knowledgeable people on here could tell me a way of getting more controls on beat shuffler (such as speed) automatable and midi mappable?

On recent sets I've noticed impulse acting particularly strange. Occasionally one hit will sound about an 1/8th bar after it is supposed to, while the other parts will play just fine. This happens particularly when I route a hit to come out of an audio track. It's really strange, and obviously very ...

It's annoying how I always have to go to preferences and select my audio drive everytime I switch my mixer on. I often turn it off when I go out of the room to save battery life and when I come back ableton shows up with no device, and I then have to go and select it when I turn it back on again ...

While you can certainly turn down the master fader to gain extra headroom, its worth considering that you are still distorting your master bus. If youve got an eq or other plug with metering on the master bus you will see that the input is overloading and that bringing down the master fader only ...

This is a particularly pressing issue for me as there's a track I've just finished which I want to be mastered, but at the moment there is no headroom, and I can't turn down all the tracks to keep the balance exactly the same!

i'm definitely not the digital audio nerd, but it seems like ...

As I do most of these automations by hand it isn't so easy to copy them with a utility. Also it is very messy trying to copy the utility as I rarely find it compensates properly. Also the utility only goes to -35 which means you can't fade from silence properly for some tracks. In this case I can ...

Does anyone have any advice on turning down track levels on session view. When a mix becomes too loud I need to turn down all the levels down simultaneously - which is very easy now thanks to live 8, however often my tracks have volume automations and this obviously causes a problem for keeping ...

frequent crashes for me on osx 10.4.11 too... seems to struggle to close as well. often when I'm opening up a project it will freeze entirely

hey, thanks for posting that

I managed to solve it by duplicating it and then deleting the original

Got quite a bizarre problem, that seems to be a bug. I'm running multiple tracks to various sends, and I've just created a new impulse with some of my own samples that has no problem normally, but when I send it to any of the sends it does this weird double rhythmic thing which essentially means I ...

really amazing plugins, shame that it makes me look like a perv though...

edit: just been fiddling about with these a bit more and it really needs stressing how good they are - the slicer has just transformed one of my tracks into exactly how i wanted it to sound

DaddyHam is right on the money. It's hardly like anyone was kicking their toys out of the pram over this and I don't see how what anyone has said has given students a bad name by expecting discounts on everything. More to the point my main problems were with Live's pricing as a whole rather than the ...

It's worth what people pay for it. And if you aren't happy with the price in comparison to Logic, then buy Logic. If you want the product so much more, then surely it's worth more. I don't think you moaning about the price is going to affect anything.

It may not do anything, but I think its ...

I just purchased Suite 8 at the educational price. As for upgrades, I'm not really overly bothered if I can have discount on upgrades too, they gave us a head start , did they not?

Yeah, that's kind of what I was getting at with the Adobe reference above. Obviously its painful for people who have ...

I'm in the same situation as you laurence. I'm on 6 and want an educational upgrade to suite 8 but don't want to have to pay €349, the upgrade they're offering is more than buying the full suite 8. I bought ableton just 2 years ago, and I think it is completely out of order that I should have to pay ...
