As a genre its got its thing


Yes but the genre has evolved into something else.

Guess I need to shave my moustache and stop drinking PBR too now.

This is the essence of what I meant. The beats are great. I just think its good to have a little understanding of thcultural
background of ...

Fellas - you sound like my Dad when he was saying that the music I was listening to (in fact all "pop" music including the Beatles) was rubbish and that Al Jolson and Bing Crosby were proper music.

You may not like Trap Music but clearly some/quite a lot of people do.

I agree. At 35 I've reached ...

Discuss.


ummm...i found a great sample library that with just a little trap music listening for reference got me 3 beats sold to this little rapper wanna be thug kid.

In general I've found in keeping up with hip hop styles its very helpful to be up on the good sample libraries and not really ...

It's definitely possible to flesh out full compositions with session, you just have to be really concerted with copying and evolving your clips down the scene rows. I'm guilty of being pretty lazy with this - I often end up with one totally killer banging scene that goes for 8 or 16 bars or ...

I thinks this is what it will all come down to. If they keep listening to their users, it will definitely become a magnificent device!
It already is a magnificent device. The problem is that the info that most have on it right now is limited and is leading to incorrect conclusions. For example ...

i want a "second licence" for my second computer.
can i use my orign serial or have i to contact the support?

my second computer has no internet.

this information is literally on abletons first help page.

Ableton has very good registration system that will work for an offline computer. You ...

i´m looking for good music theroy tutorials. not so basic like what is a scale/progression. a LITTLE bit advanced, with focus on praxis-use, like this a melody and this is the melody in the bridge and they fits together because ???? and stuff like this.

any links?
thx!

Music theory and ...

Note at the beginning of the clip with the red title "25 2-Audio-1", there's a brief fade-in indicated. It's kind of hard to see behind the text. Check the "Create Fades on Clip Edges" setting in the Record/Warp/Launch tab of the preferences.

Thanks a lot you guys. I do all my initial ...

Ok so I've got the weirdest problem.

If I run the latency test the two waveforms line up perfectly in the arrangement view of the clips.

However the recorded copy has a "bump" at the very beginning of the sign wave.
But if you double click the clip and view it in the inspector down below it ...

I am not so happy. I find that the clip automation recording has been implemented in a very confusing way. Try to explain that to a newbie.

IMHO the browser is a debacle. They should have called it factory library instead.

But then again, I can't really compare as I do not use other DAWs or ...

I'd put it this way: I'm happy with 8 for a couple of years now, and I don't see a point in buying 9 unless for the sake of Push.

I'd wish for a lot of small and minor things like more shortcuts, more colours, hiding groups, groups within groups, easy bouncing, HTML-formatted help - none of that ...

Yes. Rename the live 8 library to something like library 8. Tell live 8 where it is.

Install live 9. Tell it where the live 8 library is.

Now you have all the options you could need. When you export a live 8 project for import into 9 you don't need to include the factory files as 9 will find ...

Why hasn't live provided a manual at the least explaining in screenshots what the new options do? I saw you can buy one.

for example they have the same old latency compensation test but don't explain how the new options

delay compensation
reduce latency when monitoring

Effect the issue that is ...

live please take away your scale plug ins.

djs are fronting as musicians with no skill no understanding of chord movements.

Tongue in cheek for sure but If you want to make music there are charts of what chord

naturally goes to a selection of other chords. Learn these patterns and work on simple ...

Just got the 503 responding to midi input, its fricking amazing. Had a week snare so just put a clap on a different track and nudged it back.
Got one of the most banging beats I've heard.

Captured the Audio put some UAD grease on it. So big, just going to put simple bassline, strings on chorus ...
