Ableton Forum

Remix is a trimmed down Ableton Live, with many limitations. It is missing many features of Ableton Live. For me Remix would be no good, Ableton is much better.

It was a scam! The lap top was not a Vaio it was a Vpr Matrix and they had a Sony Vaio tag on it so it looked as if it was a Vaio. If you still want to see it, here you go- www.vprmatrix.com/products_notebook_200A5.asp

I seen that Vaio 2 days ago in Best Buy electronics store, I also could not find it on the internet, maybe it is a custom built Vaio lap top? I will be stopping by the store today and I will get the model name and #, then I should be able to find it on the internet. I will get back to you with the i...

Which one should I buy? I have some money to spend...[/quote]


You should by my Vaio so I could buy the new Vaio with the 15" extra wide screen and silver magnesium case!

Have you seen the Sony Vaio with a 15" extra wide screen and a silver magnesium case which looks like brushed aluminium, its got a P4 2.0ghz 40hd 512ram expandable to 1gig it is also supposed to come with a very high quality sound card. and it looks very sharp and feels sturdy. Now I want to se...

If you tried all you can and still won't work, then you should ask the akai support team if they can help you

Good luck

Yes, The sony vaio grx 520 lap top that I have had for almost a year now has firewire, but on Sony they call it i-link. which is firewire but with a diffrent type conection. You can go to any computer store and they sell i-link to firewire cables and adapters. So sony lap tops do have firewire, they...

from the (midi/sync) tab where it says midi control device did you click on the downward arrow to the left of the words (none). Does the midi light top right corner of Live lite up when you touch the pads on the mpd16? If not maybe uninstall the mpd16 and read manual very carefully and try once more...

The pad should send and recieve midi from the usb cable. You do not need to connect midi cable to 6/2 from mpd16

I just realised in your post that you stated you have the usb out of the pad connected to the 6/2. I belive that you may have to have the 6/2 on it's own usb port and the pad also on it's own usb port, but I am not 100% sure so you should ask some one about that.

Make sure your mpd16 is set as a midi control device. To do so, with in Live click on (options) from the menu at top left of Live, then scroll down to (preferences) and click on it, then click the (midi/sync) tab and then set the mpd16 as your midi control device. Also did you install the midi/usb d...

Also look in to a 2 or 3 tier heavy duty keyboard stand, they could hold alot of gear and also look nice on stage. My whole set up fits on a 2 tier stand.

I know there is already a few threads on this sound card but they seem old and I want some new opinions. I already have a motu828 I have it in a rack case and it is big and bulky and I would really like a more portable system. I would like to leave the motu 828 home for recording use and what not, a...

I use a Sony Vaio lap top with a motu 828 audio interface which also is a hard disk storage unit.
