Hi,
I have a DJ gig coming up on Friday and I have no idea how many songs I need. I've never played a 3hr set before so I'm not sure how many I need to be safe. I was thinking around 35 or 40? Please, If you have any experience, please help me out! Thanks in advance.

So I have a set with aboyt 40 songs all warped and chopped. I warped all these songs in beat mode. As of a few days ago, Ive been having a lot of problems with all my tracks. If I adjust the tempo at all the song becomes extremely distorted. The song sound fine if my master tempo matches that of the...

1) Could be the envelope setting in operator

2) Could be your interface. If so, try swapping usb cord and usb port

All I can think of... Hope this helps

Lately I have been getting a lot of hard disk overload notifications and my audio will drop for a second. I am running all of my songs in my set off a slow as helllll external hard drive. Is my external drive the problem? or is it my computer. Please let me know. Thanks in advance.

Maybe I'm not understanding what your saying, but it sounds like you want to run 64bit ableton beta on a 32bit operating system. This wont work. See if your computer's 64bit compatible and upgrade you operating system if it is. Only then should you install ableton 64bit

I was playing around with my set today when I noticed that a few of my mp3s were at different volume levels. This makes mixing tracks very difficult. What can I do to be sure that all my volumes are at the same levels? Please help me out! Thanks in advance.

Hi, I have two Red Bellied Pacu freshwater fish and they are growing out of control for my tank size. Every fish store I talk to refuses to take them off my hands. I just was wondering if it were illegal to leave them in a bucket in the fish section of PetSmart? Please let me know your thoughts! Als...

Hi,
My buddy and I are trying to DJ together. We both have ableton 8 and two pc laptops. How can we connect these two computers so we can DJ together. I cannot find a good solution. Please help!

I also have an m-audio fast track pro audio interface with 4 outputs

Thanks in advance!

I'm sorry, but Ableton's piano role is awful. I would love to produce with ableton, but I just cannot get past how inefficient lives piano role is. As a result, I choose only use ableton for dj'ing. Ableton is my favorite daw, I just wish the piano role was more fluid. Ableton could really learn a l...

1) Drag and drop audio clips my friend

2) Audio Clips. It will save cpu and take stress off your computer because you wont be running multiple programs at once. you dont want you computer to overload during the middle of your set

that just means he pre-arranges his sets before his shows. which is weak. don't do that.

Hi, I am looking for a building pluck noise. I want the synth to start off as a solid pluck, and than build into more of a synth-ish string. Obviously, I am looking to do this during a build. Can somebody please tell me a sound, vst, instrument, program, anything that can do this. Basically I just w...

Unfortunately, I have an apc20 that I am unable to use. Ableton can not distinguish between two APC's. it would be awesome if i could use my 40 and my 20 together. It would have been nice if I would have at least known this before I bought my apc20. Now I have a useless piece of hardware that I can ...

I would love if ableton would incorporate some type of key detection software so people would be able to take their harmonic mixing to the next level. I wish that I would not have needed to purchase Mixed in Key. It would be great if ableton would incorporate a key detection ability. Thanks!

Hi, I just linked the track loop function to one of my pads on the apc40. It works, I mean, I'll hit the pad and the loop will turn on or off. However, the pad does not light up when I turn it on. I would be really nice if I could get the pad to light up when the loop was turned on so I can tell wea...
