Thank you for keeping this post active. Sorry/glad to see it's not just me having these problems. Ableton: what's the plan?

Buehler? I cannot be the only Live user experiencing these problems. I've already confirmed that with the Korg team.

A growing list of VST3 problems in Ableton: Extreme Sluggishness and GUI Freezing. It's time to fix it.

Greetings Abes! Crazy to think I've been on the forum for 20 years now. I haven't posted here in quite a few years because I frankly haven't really needed to, but Houston we do indeed have a problem. I now have a growing list of VST3s that are basically becoming unused in my setup because they freez...

Re: Midi Controllers not working as Remote Controller on recently purchased MBP, on Windows/older MBP it works fine

You may need to update the midi drivers for your hardware on the new Mac. Ableton might be seeing it as a midi controller, but without the controller's current drivers from the manufacturer. Or the news could be worse: the manufacturer hasn't yet updated the driver to work with the new Macs, but hop...

Re: switch scenes in session view automatically?

pete44: I also perform in the Session View with the different sections of my songs laid out between scenes. My question is: if all of your songs are pre-arranged (8 bar intro, 16 bar riff, 8 bar break, then 16 bar chorus, etc,) and then you want the 'Solo' section to be open-ended, I'm trying to und...

Program Change Racks!

As a stage performer, I would be thrilled to have a Drum Rack-style rack...128 squares...and be able to place a plug-in inside each square. Which is how Drum Rack already works...but in this case it would be the full key range of each synth, but selectable by Program Changes It seems to me this woul...

Re: After 10 years : why is midi mapping in Live so archaic ?

Since 2002 I have been asking for a special Midi Map mode so that certain assignments only happen when that particular track is ARMED. That way you can use the same faders and knobs for multiple VSTi's and adjusting a knob on one instrument will not send the message to another one. So damn simple. I...

Re: Poll: Bring back Auto-Assign Colors to pre-9.5 functionality

Okay Ableton--it's been a few weeks. How's this coming along? An Options.txt would be a perfectly acceptable solution for us if that works for you. :-)

Re: Poll: Bring back Auto-Assign Colors to pre-9.5 functionality

I've found that previous clip colors saved with the .asd files won't work anymore. Here's the email I just sent: Dear Ableton development team, Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for what you do. I’ve been using Ableton Live as my primary production tool and DJ tool, for the greater part of th...

Re: Poll: Bring back Auto-Assign Colors to pre-9.5 functionality

I'm very relieved to see how many people feel the same way about this mandatory change. Special thanks to soundsliketree for writing to Ableton. I was working for about six hours today in Live and this same color over and over and over again really slowed me down and added so much confusion. For thi...

Let us know if any of the Abes get back to you. I hope they are realizing the seriousness of this decision and are planning a way to rectify it!

Re: Poll: Bring back Auto-Assign Colors to pre-9.5 functionality

I have spent years color-coding my clips to my specifications. I use the color of clips to indicate identifiable categories of sounds (environment, dialog, music, movie sounds, foley, rhythm, etc.) I do not use tracks to do this. And I don't always have the same category of sound on each track. I a...

Re: Poll: Bring back Auto-Assign Colors to pre-9.5 functionality

While I appreciate the thought and voted yes, the way the poll items are formulated is pretty loaded. :lol: Not neutral at all. 1. Yes, do this and make this world a better place for all people to live in harmony and peace forevermore. 2. No, remain in this dark age of strife and sin while you sit ...

Re: Poll: Bring back Auto-Assign Colors to pre-9.5 functionality

I just cannot fathom why anyone is voting No here. You're saying that other users shouldn't have the choice to turn this off?? I would never deprive other users of the option to do something important for them! What the fuck people?!
