By the way - if anyone lost their rubber boots at the sonisphere, I saw a pair of them sticking in the mud without a person in them
Very funny. then my mate laughed his head off when my earplugs fell into the mud...

I really liked their gig yesterday, Metallica just have a lot of great songs, and they played very well. Apart from fight fire with fire and sad but true, which were played much too fast and sounded strange. But what actually did upset me was that James changed his clothes several times during the g...

the solo quantize feature wish is 5 years old now, I'm sad that I missed its birthday. But still a good idea!

The idea to use the IAC driver to "convert" midi note clips into clips that send midi remote is brilliant! I tried this today to "solo" several tracks at once, because I often have the problem that the solo activation is not quite on the beat when I do it manually. But for some reason the solo canno...

stop thinking in terms of midi channel and think in terms of midi ports. stop sending midi to the APC from tracks that take midi in from the LP. been using my APC and LP together for many months, no conflicts, unless I set them up like that. IMO it is pretty funny watching the two light up 'random'...

Please correct me when I am wrong, but with Live 8.1.3b2, you cannot prelisten a clip in the browser anymore by clicking on it. you have to click in the waveform preview field with the "click here to prelisten" text, too?! Annoying and useless.

the previous beta 8.1.2b4 tells me that there are no new betas. it's lying, apparently...

buttons are lit with the beta, great! I didn't suspect Live to be the problem...

thanks for the hint!

I wonder why the LED rings and buttons aren't lit when I use the "ableton" template of the remote SL. Is this normal? They are lit when I try other templates, so what's the problem with the ableton template? I set everything up like it is described in the novation DAW setup guide. not using automap ...

Doesn't work here. I've set the Automap settings to "focus device = Launchpad", but no automap functionality. I can't even show or hide the automap head up display.

I'm using the Remote SL MKII with its template 32 as a control surface in Live 8. I wonder why the record button doesn't work, but most of the other transport buttons work as expected? And pressing the stop button twice should set the time to 1.1.1, this doesn't work either.

thanks for the hint!
I wonder how to do that, I didn't find anything in the max for live manual yet. I'll have to do some more reading apparently...

How do you enable midi learn for parameters in max for live? For example I want the "freeze" button and the reset buttons in buffer shuffler to be enabled for midi learn. and it would be cool to control the buffer shuffler grid with launchpad...

When I set buffer shuffler to 16 steps and smoothing to 0% , every following repetition of the (1 bar) loop sounds different - whithout auto-dice! I have no explanation for this. But with smoothing bigger than 0 % or with 8 steps buffer shuffler acts as expected. weird...

very weird - I get clicking noises when I move a clip in arrange view from one track to another, or ahead in time (no noise when moving back in time). This happens only when the sequencer is not playing! And Live indicates that (midi or key) remote signals are being sent - I have no clue why, becaus...
