Re: Bending notes

Ok. So I think I now understand that bending notes via glide can only be done in simpler and sampler. But what about instruments that are in the instrument rack? Like ambient pad-fall and strings? They don't have a glide option, and the pitch bend mentioned above is really not the sound I'm after. T...

Re: Bending notes

Hi I'm using an ambient sound in Live 8 and would like to know what is the best way of bending notes into one another? I've tried changing the pitch in reverbs and resonators on a single note, but the notes are clearly defined when the pitch gets shifted. I'd rather a smooth blended in note bend. A...

My tracks

These are the first few tracks I've ever done using Ableton. I gather there are quite a few dance music fans here, so you're probably not going to like them that much.

They are there when I save and close the file, but then when I reopen it, they appear to be there in the arrangement view and session view but do not play at all. There is no green bar indicating sou...

Hi, "I've only had Ableton a few days and am teaching myself really. I have version 8 I've done a few compositions but I just cannot seem to get a good Bass sound or a good string sound." Hi, Ignore the idiot on about mixing - that has nothing to do with it (well maybe a bit when it comes...

Re: Bedroom Orchestra

Oh my lord. That is quite amazing.

I've only been using ableton for 10 days but if I ever produce anything half as good as that I'll be happy.

Great work.
