long recording sessions

Hi all, I am feeling like a noob. Perhaps, I forgot that Live has these horrible limitations and is not designed to record sessions bigger than 2 GB in size.. Yesterday I was recording a long DJ mix from external mixer through my audio interface. I hit the record button in the arrangement, made sure...

Re: Remember the Bloody Audio Interface!

I believe each audio device has a unique device identifier that can be used by Live to store I/O channel information along with it, so when it's used next time, the configuration is restored. I can't believe this can't be done. No? Then can you please tell me how to rename the channels of my audio ...

Re: Remember the Bloody Audio Interface!

I'm not sure how much of this is OS audio level related, but I'm pretty sure Live works quite low level and does rely on the CoreAudio API in macOS for instance. I believe each audio device has a unique device identifier that can be used by Live to store I/O channel information along with it, so wh...

Re: Ableton Live 9 - Midi Keys Sustain

Hi, When you arm your track for recording in session view, all notes and automation should normally be recorded into the track, including sustain pedal (HOLD message). Once recorded, make sure the HOLD automation is properly recorded within your clip. If your sustain pedal is not being recorded, mak...

Re: live 10 won't authorize?

Yes I purchased the 10 ultimate pre order. I actually sent a ticket to ableton first but I still haven't received any response. I ended up having to register offline but was hoping to fix whatever was causing the problem instead of using a workaround. Do you still have Live 9 installed on your PC/M...

Re: Live 10 and moving multiple arrange events...STILL fkd ???

Thanks for making the effort. What seems extra strange is that the parts are all there, it's not as if a whole new chunk of the arrange environment needs conceptualising and creating (yes, I know it's not exactly that simple but you get what I'm saying.) Extend the idea a tiny step to the export/re...

Re: Low latency Thunderbolt soundcard

Check out Presonus Quantum or its smaller brother Presonus Quantum 2 (if you don't need as many inputs). Exceptionally low latency and decent DAC/ACD at a good price.

Re: Live 10 and moving multiple arrange events...STILL fkd ???

Let's all vote for this feature on centerode! I am glad you brought it up muthafunka! If it was in place in Live 9, it would save me hours of time last year.

Re: Ableton 10 is obsolet!

The improvements are mostly good, however, it's only the price that I'll pay for the whole upgrade is a little confusing. I wonder if such responses is a sign Ableton need to offer a mid-sized version, the Live Essentials 10 . What's that, a Live sans MFL? or with MFL but only 2 synths of your choi...

Re: Ableton 10 is obsolet!

As a Suite 9 owner, and as I own many third party VSTs, I have zero interest in Wavetable or any additional FX. As far as I am concerned they do not add value to the Live 10 update. I am sure that, like myself, people who already own a number of VSTs and FX will have a specific requirement when the...

Re: Ableton 10 is obsolet!

I'm loving the update but one thing I can't believe Ableton hasn't implemented is 3rd party plugin sidechain support. Yes I know you can achieve this with routing but watching Logic users sidechain 3rd party plugs makes me seriously jealous. With just a drop down menu from within the plugin they ca...

Re: Is anyone here still rocking vinyl ?

Getting back to playing vinyl topic – I personally noticed that in some particular places music from turntables through analogue mixer (A&H Xone:92 in that case) basically sounded better than when someone played digital music from Pioneer CD decks in the same room. We noticed that the analog set...

Re: Is anyone here still rocking vinyl ?

I'm sorry. I should perhaps have mentioned that I referred to those that market certain nights as "vinyl-only" and not 102455, who doesn't seem to be in the "vinyl-only" camp. Clearly there are people that think that "vinyl-only" guarantees a certain quality. I play re...

Re: Is anyone here still rocking vinyl ?

I've never had anyone ask me to DJ "vinyl only", although I could if anyone wanted me to do it. I never understood how "vinyl only" is a quality in itself, not even if you're scratch artist. And TimeCode records are made from Vinyl. Does that count, I wonder. Nobody mentioned th...
