hey, for a liveset I'm preparing I want to have the correct simpler preset load for each different clip I play, rather than having to manually change the preset before lauching the clip. I can do this for external synths by including the bank and program number and it automatically selects the corre...

does any one know a keyboard shortcut for moving a loop within an audio clip (session view). and related, does anyone know a keyboard shortcut for moving the end play icon (the one that's reversed) from the end of the clip to the end of the bracket that is looping in the clip. My useful shortcuts - ...

I use the backman.. its great, doesn't cause any glitches and reverses instantly in a live situation

thanks! glad you like it!

It was recorded live initially in the session view and once I had the backbone of it down I went back to arrange view and fixed up some transitions and added more stuff on top. It took two days....

Hi Guys, I made a DJ mix yesterday. Well, not a vinyl mix, my first digital mix ever. Made in ableton. 47 tracks! It includes a lot of my favourite tracks from 2006 plus a few older ones for good measure. Minimal and Melodic techno plus a smattering of electro. I took full advantage of the digital p...

hi guys, I've tried both ableton's reverb and many free reverb VSTS, and while there's nothing essentially wrong with any of them; all have virtues and merits of their own, I'm missing the reverb sound I need... specifically I have a hardware alesis midiverb, and the reverbs on that are sweet... Is ...

perfect .. got it! incidentally, is there a keyboard command that will bring the end marker to the end of the loop marker ?

hi guys, have just tried some mp3 dj-ing in live. I'm trying to make 6 or 7 loops from one track and then jamming with the loops. What is the best of doing this. I tried getting a one bar loop and then right clicking and selecting crop sample. I expected it to crop to just that loop, but it seemed t...

Hi All, User of live since live 2. I've been consistenly pleased with the updates so far from each version of live. However live 6 so far, after 2 months or so of use, does not seem to have justified the upgrade price. The main sellings points of this were; sampler - I didn't get this update operato...

right. This is really pissing me off. It works very rarely. and I simply cannot figure out what is going wrong. No matter if I put it to one voice or not, it still doesn't work all the time. I just want simple glide from one note to the other..... wtf is going on ???

doh! thanks

in live 6... where the hell is the edit button gone from the clip window so I can open the clip in sound forge... grrrrrrr

???

I may have a solution. As I was getting dressed in my walk-in closet (wow... another commodity here) I noticed how flat the sound was in there, due to the clothes and wooden shelfs. There's just about enough room to manouveure so if I can get a table or desk the right size, I'm moving the studio in ...

help! I've just moved to costa rica from Ireland. The problem I have had in setting up my studio is the acoustics in my bedroom. It's a large-ish room and the same size as my previous bedroom back in ireland. My problem lies in the construction of the houses over here... stone or tile floors and sol...
