^ ditto what they both said, the 1/4 jacks are for footswitches, not audio inputs.

4. the prevailing font on that site is really hard to look at, especially in the "about us" section.

in reply to your thread title:

C major... or F major... or maybe A minor, perhaps D minor, how about G minor?

The question is misguided because a minor chord preset is not going to determine what key you are in! it could be *any* key that has a Dmin chord in it.

So I have purchased Suite which came with many audio effects. But then Slate's plugins are very popular. When I try out the trial I see many if not all function can be build by using Ableton's audio effects. So I have purchased some Slate mastering plugins. But then Sonnox' plugins are very popular....

Im into Drum and Bass/Trip Hop/Breaks Sampled breakbeats, layered with one shots is probably the way to go for the styles you've listed! for me personally, I just scour the interwebs for stuff.

Hey everyone, just to follow up on this, I checked my updates today, and there's a 1.2.1 version that purports to have solved most of the issues!

Better than downloading a few of them would be downloading one of them, and spending a lot of time with it. I'd say synth1 personally.

if you have a midi cable going in, it will sync, as long as you have the sync option checked under:

Live < Preferences < Midi/Sync < (select sync button for your audio interface, or whatever device the midi cable from the Volca is plugged into)

You definitely need another cable, midi cables do what they say they do, transmit midi messages, you also need a way to bring that audio back into Live. You'll need a 3.5-to-1/4 audio cable, or a 3.5-to-xlr, depending on what inputs your audio interface offers, looking at the mtrack, probably xlr, p...

I wonder what happened, beyond the mindset of some people that:

"I can download software for free off the internet with no repercussions whatsoever"

It seemed like they had a pretty good thing going over there. Well, I hope Alchemy is built to last, because I use it all the time! Shame!
