Re: How does one remove vocals from a track?

In my experience the best software for this is Ultimate Vocal Remover, which is a free desktop app for Windows Mac & Linux. It's not perfect but I don't think that it is possible to get it perfect, at the moment. The AI for this has come a long way so maybe in a year's time it *will* be perfect. For ...

Bass instrument - make it play a kick drum on any note

I've got a bass instrument in Operator that i've been tinkering with. I'd like to set it up so that every time a note plays it also triggers a kick drum, with the kick drum being at the same constant note (ie always sounding the same) regardless of which note is played in the bass line.

Is there a ...

Re: How to automate movement on a knob based on a new note starting

Thanks - i do have Max for Live but i've never used it. It's a good point about the polyphony, i guess it would be fine if the notes were programmed to start at the same time. I think i need to do some tutorials.

How to automate movement on a knob based on a new note starting

I've been playing with synths in Instruments and have a setup where it sounds really nice if the arp (arpeggiator) rate is set very fast when a note starts and then it slows down over the period of a couple of seconds. Is it possible to automate this, ie for the arp rate to jump to 10 when a new ...

Off-screen part of clip is left behind

In arrangement view in Ableton (Live Lite v11), if I click on a clip to select it, then drag it, any part of it which happened to be off the side of the screen will be cut off and left behind. It's annoying as often I don't notice till i've already done a bunch of stuff with it after moving it.

I ...

Hi all. Sorry if this is has been answered, i did hunt around for a bit.

I've got the midi notes for a track laid down and now want to do some automation. Let's say I record automation on parameters A and B, by twiddling the knobs on my synth while the track plays through, with record on. So far so ...

Problems with gliding between notes

Hi all. I've got a track where i'm using Native Instruments' "Massive" to do a bassline. I want to be able to play it live, and my problem is how gliding is managed when two notes are pressed simultaneously and then one is released. Currently what happens is

note a is held
- note a plays
note b ...

Can i mix the M-audio Fast Track Ultra 8R from ableton?

I play vdrums. In our set, i have some songs that use the sound module from the vdrums, and some songs where i use triggered sounds in Ableton. We use an M-Audio fast track ultra, which has it's own software mixing desk.

Currently this is set up so that the drumkit audio output goes into the fast ...
