.....but seriously, prelistening with headphones isnt just usefull to beatmatch, its also a good way to pretest a mix, eq, fx settings, unkown trax etc... to me, mixing without headphones is actually harder and not the other way around lol

i use the prelisten function like in a "normal" dj set ...

OK, I have 10 original songs composed in Live. Each song = 1 liveset. Each liveset contains specific arrangements with vsti's, audio,midi, fx etc.... follow me?

now i'd like to seamlessly mix these 10 songs / livesets. how is this possible? cuz having all the vsti's, fx..etc of all 10 songs in one ...

Thanks for the headsup.... i see how you can use just 2 columns for a dj set.

but what about for an original song set? like i mentioned above i'd like to seamlessly mix several livesets, each of them including audio, midi & vsti's and arrangement sequencing.



btw, your last comment had me lmao ...

Thanks for the quick reply...but i already own the software, and have read the manual. I know and understand the features in Live, but i'm more concerned with the "method of use" approaches towards what i wanna do.

I understand these are very basic questions, but would appreciate any direct answer ...

After watching countless acts using Live this year at Sonar as well as in my local music scene, i've finally decided to jump on the bandwagon and give this app a try. I had used v3, but now with v5 i definitely see what all the fuss is about!!

Anyways, I'd like to do 2 things with Live:


1 - DJ ...

Oizo uses a very minimal gear approach, all the tracks are pretty much: roland tr-606 + korg ms-20, all resampled through the akai s950 + distortion and compression effects.

the infamous bassline sound is classic ms-20 tho. you can get that exact sound from the korg legacy plugin, one of the vsti ...
