Workflow: Anyone start in Arrange, then to Session?

This is something I've been trying to work out for some time now; I know it seems like a "backwards" workflow, but is it possible? Live is obviously great for making ideas in Session and recording them into Arrange, but can it work well the other way - making clips in Arrange and then drag...

Re: workaround to not having auto crossfades in arrangement view

thats not a cross-fade. a cross-fade would fade between two or more tracks (like a dj mixer), so at the center both tracks are playing together i think you mean to just fade out your clips start and end points to avoid the clicks n pops. This. Auto-crossfade means sliding one clip into another, and...

Re: Which Version of Live Do You Prefer to Use and why

Live 7.0.14 cuz it's rock solid, BUT just realized I have to upgrade by June 30th to use my coupon code discount, so v.7's days are probably numbered.

Re: I hate people who wear hats to cover up their baldness.

It's not fair, cuz I wear hats all the time and I'm pretty much bald...but they have nothing to do with each other! Yet I'm sure a lot of people think I'm trying to hide my bald cuz I'm insecure or something, but it's just not the case. I agree with the "shave it and embrace it" ethos, and...

Re: Questions on potential uses for iphone....

AT&T service is on the flakey side. I never had a dropped call with Verizon, now it's a regular thing. This all depends on where you live. AT&T has a way better signal in the Bay Area of CA than Verizon. There's a lot of different terrain here and I get a strong signal in areas that Verizon...

Re: Questions on potential uses for iphone....

While I generally love the iPhone I do have some complaints, although a number of things are being adressed in the upcoming 3.0 update. I was floored to find out you couldn't send a picture in a text (MMS) for example; that's just ridiculous! No iPhone user should be cool with that or justify it by ...

Will M4L allow customizeable key commands/macros?

Forgive my ignorance about Max, but with all the amazing possibilities it will supposedly provide Live, the idea that most excites me is the possibility of having fully user-defineable key commands and macros (like Live should have already IMO). I have a feeling that Max won't be able to do this, bu...

Re: How do you rename notes in the piano roll?

I'll have to dig it up and put it up again. Essentially its a MIDI Effect Rack with 128 chains, each chain assigned to a different key. The MIDI Rack has a right-click option to "Show notes in editor". So you can give a name to the chains and have them displayed on the pianoroll. Hey Memy...

Re: OT - RE5: RENAMED to official (enough) vidya game threddddd

Speaking of Wii, there was a MarioKart thread a few months ago where some folks were trying to race online. At the time I wasn't racing online, but now I am. I usually only do "Regional" which is just North America I believe, but if you ever see "JMZ" racing Luigi on the Mach Bik...

Re: Live users and Maschine - an observation

I think this update really establishes Maschine as a serious tool. Up till now things like no midi out, no Rex support, limited slicing sizes etc. really made Maschine seem incomplete...or at least, not living up to its potential. After this update that will no longer be the case IMO.
