Re: Ableton DJs: do you set the levels of your songs?

yep- when i was djing with ableton i would just adjust each song's clip gain so it would reach a certain RMS level before i saved it into my library

as for glue compressing / limiting... i never bothered with that. the tracks have (usually) been mastered already - no one really expects a total ...

Re: D/L Liine Kapture -M4L device built for Plastikman Live show

this would be a very useful device, except that it always captures the state of buttons!

even when nothing is ticked in the snapshot filter, buttons (eg EQ3 bass kill, Amp boost, Redux soft, even the device's own on/off switch) will return to their "captured' state. which is great except i never ...

Re: Can't access the file vcredist_x86.exe - install failed

i am also having a related issue with 8.2.2

when installing, it reaches the "copying file c:\program files\live 8.2.2\redist\vcredist_x86.exe" part, waits there a while, and then a dialogue box pops up and says "the application failed to initialize properly (0xc0000006). click on ok to terminate ...

Re: Reverb Quality

as much as i love ableton live, the reverb is shocking! really cheap, nasty, yucky.

i don't have logic but i have protools 8 - comparing the ableton reverb to protools' air reverb is quite shocking.

searching this forum

this forum is a great resource of information, but FINDING the information is really quite difficult!

most forums have a way to search the topic titles, but this one doesn't

am i the only one that gets annoyed by this?

is there a workaround - a seperate search engine or something?

automation timing accuracy

i've always had this problem with ableton over the years i've used it (version 7 and 8), and on different computers

automation always seems to be out a *bit* in the arrangement view. usually it's a bit too early; say 30 ms or so. annoying when you're trying to do things rhythmically, eg gating ...

launchpad... what's happening on MIDI channel 3?

if you create a midi track and send the midi to the launchpad on channel 3, some strange things happen - every time you hit a key 2 pads light up, and if you keep doing this the lights add on and then wrap around (like text in a word processor). rather strange.. is this a hint of some cool feature i ...

Re: Anybody tried using 2 Launchpads together yet?

i haven't, but i noticed using my launchpad with my (powered) belkin usb hub made it VERY sluggish, even with nothing else plugged in! so if you need a usb hub to connect them, perhaps do some research into what is a good hub..
