Ableton Forum

i slide transients around like that when matching doubled vocal phrases to the previous takes. I can stretch individual parts in vocal phrases. So I get the "doubled" vocal vibe and the phrases match perfectly (ish).
I assume people use Melodyne to do similar things but it is really fast in Live.

Came across these recently - apologies if they have been mentioned before.
Nice job this guy did, well, I learned a some things anyway.

Sometimes USB devices get sent to sleep (Windows) - my softstep2 was having problems and I discovered this (er, didn't actually solve my softstep problem but it was good to know). Softstep support always blame the cable first BTW. :mrgreen: Maybe this will help: http://helpdeskgeek.com/windows-xp-ti...

I have a PC system and I believe that when I plug in an HMDI connector, a set of related audio drivers gets installed, that at the very least overrides the system audio drivers. I have to go to device manager and disable (or delete) them.

Also helps to remove unused stop buttons in session view. Don't know why but people say that lightens CPU load.

Hi, Anybody got a suggestion as to why the Hard Disk OL lights up when I am playing a Live Instrument and does not with a Kontakt type sample instrument in the same set? Everything is on the same HD. I thought I'd try to lighten up my live set by using native Ableton synths instead of third party......

Fab. Thanks. That fixed it. Great work. Salutations once more.

yes, mouse is always OK. Tried different midi controllers but always getting this 2 or sometimes more presses needed to trigger. If mouse is OK then maybe that points to a midi in problem in my Live config.

Sometimes requires two controller button presses to activate....any suggestions? Or is that my system?

Will check it now. Thanks

Hi, Yes forcing another random instead of a potential repeat is nice. "Stop" not being a possible action is OK too, if I understand correctly..

Ok got it. Working! Fab! Thanks - as long as I set the first clip up and the correct number of clips. Excellent. Many thanks. it is a lot simpler than Gary's idea of the drum rack, which also works, but this way I can just drag into clips and don't have to have lots of simplers open.

Hi Chapelier, Clips not launching - or launch button not responding here- either to mouse or midi notes.

Fantastic, thanks, I will try it out later today. Have a good swim.

- select a range of clip numbers
- one button to launch random clips within the limits

If so i'll do this today

That sounds like it would be a simple solution. IS that easy to make?
