Re: Color pads of Drum Rack

+1

Also please vote up my request for Presonus to make Ableton’s drum pad/chain color appear on their Atom controller’s pad the way it does on Push’s.

Expand drum rack and see names of all pads and thin screens over pads for Push 3

I think Ableton Live should have an “unfoldable” expanded view of the drum rack’s pad view where the name of the sample on every pad shows in its place on the grid. This would be helpful to know which pad you are going to pick and play next when using Push in 64 pad mode. If anyone knows a way or a ...

Re: 128s Chain Selector

I've been experimenting with the 128s/ infinite drum rack concept. I put one of these chains of 128 samples on probably ~60 drum pads. Many of them contain 2 to 4 bar loops. I'm fining that if I play out a nice drum pattern using the pads on Push, it will play fine. However, when I try to play the r...

CPU Spikes playing Simpler from clip, but not when receiving note from another MIDI channel or Push

I have a drum rack with a pad containing an instrument rack containing simpler with 128 multisamples. The samples are pretty long. I can trigger multiple notes quickly from the Ableton Push controller and they play responsive and fine. However, after I recorded the Push performance into a MIDI clip ...

"initializing midi inputs and outputs" frequently appearing

Hello, My new Live 11 installation on a newly set up version of Windows 10 is showing a "initializing midi inputs and outputs" message in the lower right corner of the screen when playing. It also shows a "loading" ring next the cursor at the same time. This happens even if I dis...

Re: SysEx in Live 10

Yeah vocal comping is needed. Instead of giving us new instruments that we don't need, Ableton should be working on fixing some of these huge gaps that users have asking for for years.

Re: SysEx in Live 10

+1 for sysex send and recieve. I'd like to see features that send sysex when a project and/or clip launches similar to the way they've implemented program change send to have all your outboard physical synths receive the patch of that project when you open it.

Re: Finding tempo/bpm of midi clip

Thank you so much! This technique worked really well.

For anyone else who might want to try this, the "stretch notes" option was not available for some reason, but the "MIDI Stretch Markers" appeared anyway after note selection.

Love it.

Finding tempo/bpm of midi clip

I frequently want to know this. So I just played 2 bars of a melody I just came up with and recorded it into Ableton Live at the default 120 bpm tempo. I always end up improvising, coming up with cool things, and I don't want to have to go back, set the bpm before I start recording, and then play in...

Re: Lock piano roll to key scale & mode

Furthermore, I would like to see Live develop key/scale features similar to or better than what Cubase has been implementing where tracks can be easily transposed to other keys and scales with a single assignable "global project key" parameter change and other tracks can be harmonized / pu...

Re: Can you fold and unfold grouped track by Push?

For those that can't seem to get the track select button under the LCD screen to unfold its group, I found that you really have to press and hold it to unfold it. (Sing that to the tune of "You have to lick it, before you stick it".)
