Re: Help!! Issues with MIDI's sound cheap and robotic

Every track needs a sound source, or to point to a sound source. If you're new to Ableton I suggest putting the Midi file to one side and follow Live's built in tutorials, or look on Youtube, to get the basics of how to put a project together.

Re: Help!! Issues with MIDI's sound cheap and robotic

You need to assign instruments/samples etc to the various tracks of your midi file.

Re: Problem installing Max for Live

Under Licese Details, I have: -Live 9 Standard (Upgrade), that's the version I downloaded a few days ago -Live 8 Boxed, that's the one I bought at the shop -Essential Instrument Collection, I didn't even know I had that... No mention of M4L. Should there be one, even if I downloaded a demo version?...

Re: Problem installing Max for Live

Did you purchase M4L separately to the Live9 upgrade as I think M4L is only bundled with the Suite version of Live9.

Re: Crash hell

Do you use M4L plugins? These have been causing me no end of hassle since 9.1. Upgrading Max to 6.17 sorts some of the issues but some of the crashes I've submitted are known faults they're working on.

Updating the FXPansion plugins resolved the issues. Thanks for everyone's help.

Re: Multi-channel spectrum analyzer.

Melda's MMultiAnalyser seems to do the job too. Here's a video of it in action.

Not really. My friend doesnt like upgrading unless he has to and I'm loathed to recommend he does as I've had a lot of problems recently with Live 9.1 and above.

Re: Collaboration woes. VSTs not recalling parameters

Both on Windows 7 PCs and all software is legit. We'll get both versions of Live up the same version and check our version numbers of the VSTs. Since posting originally we're tried other VSTs from NI, Audio Damage, Sonic Charge and Fabfilter and they've worked OK so I'm guessing it's an issue with F...

Collaboration woes. VSTs not recalling parameters

Hi. I'm trying to collaborate on some Live projects with a friend. We've both using Live 9 Suite (albeit different versions) and have agreed on using the same VSTs. I sent him my project, converted to a Live pack, which contained 4 tracks (Analog, Drumrack, Il Drummaxx, FXP Strobe). For Drummaxx I'd...

Re: Amazing Noises Dark Synth parameter recall issue

I'm now thinking it didnt install properly 1st time. I've just reinstalled and all my presets are now organised by type, which they weren't before (was just a big list). Hopefully thats it sorted but will test further.

Re: Amazing Noises Dark Synth parameter recall issue

I'll try downloading a fresh copy. As I cannot get the problem to occur reliably it is difficult to describe the problem further than I already have. For me, the parameter that is always reset is the brickwall filter.

Re: M4L mappings lost when recovering from a crash

Hmm. Kinda makes the auto recover useless for me on large sets as I use the M4L mapping extensively. Hope they see this as a bug and fix it.
