Akai MPK49

In a song, can a drum rack be solely dedicated to the pads and a synth to the keys? In other words, can two or more Ableton synths be used and one only trigger the pads? This would be like key zones - but the pads would be a zone of their own. I apologize if this question has been asked, but the abi...

Re: Why does sustain stick when it wasn't used?

I think have found the answer. The very first clip on the track, the sustain envelope remains up. This affects the rest of the track.

This despite the clips not being visually connected.

Re: Why does sustain stick when it wasn't used?

No VSTs on this one. All Ableton synths. I will give it a try, though. Thanks. I thought it might be the m-audio 88ES is somhow sending a signal. That doesn't make sense as that track is not armed. Perhaps there was something played prior on that track that is triggering it? But then why would the m...

Why does sustain stick when it wasn't used?

On certain midi clips where there was no sustain pedal used, the clip will suddenly hold the notes, sustaining them. I have attempted to go to envelopes C64 (there is no sustain shown) and raise the envelope and delete it, but this does not help. There are no aoutmated parameters on the track. Does ...

Re: Disappointed with ProjectSam Orchestra Ensembel (but there i

I am happy with the strings in EIC - but I find I may have judged the collection too soon.

The reason?
Failure to adjust characteristics like attack, release and tremolo.

There may be more here than I originally realized.

Re: Disappointed with ProjectSam Orchestra Ensembel (but there i

I think the product is satisfactory but not for the price. Even $50 would be a bit steep. I really think it is better to save your pennies and get ProjectSam Orchestra Essentials ProjectSAM is excited to announce Orchestral Essentials - the essence of film scoring. Orchestral Essentials will boost ...

One preset is one sound with with effects.
There are 8 mappable parameters on the "macro device."

Somewhat Disappointed with ProjectSam Orchestra

For the price paid, the sounds are way too few. The good news? I like the sounds enough to buy ProjectSAM Orchestral Essentials. The problem? I just spent $100 on 31 presets. How to solve this? Provide me with a coupon code for $100 if I buy Orchestral Essentials or any other product direct from Pro...

Re: Stylus RMX 1.9 & Ableton 8

@agent 314 - I don't know what kind of music you are into, but what 3rd party expansion packs.

Metamorphosis is the one of RMX's I really like.

Is there any approach in Ableton that can do what RMX does?

Re: Stylus RMX 1.9 & Ableton 8

Thank you. What might you recommend in place of this? The chaos button seems like it would do the job.

Ordering now gets you all the xpander packs included.

Metamorphisis is of particular interest.

Re: Stylus RMX 1.9 & Ableton 8

I appreciate you taking the time for the in depth reply. A DJ used RMX Stylus to remix a song. I am amazed with what he came up with, but he doesn't have the answers (or time?) for the following. Do you group those 8 channels? There is no drag and drop with Ableton, yet, is there? So if I import a ....

Stylus RMX 1.9 & Ableton 8

Who uses these together? How is the learning curve?

Is Recycle still the only way to get a sample into RMX?

Pros and cons?

Thank you.

Is it possible to have multiple songs open at once

Is it possible to have multiple songs open at once with the songs behind inactive like in Reason?


If not, is it true a program was written to put put multiple songs in one session view?

Sorry if this was asked before.
