If If you are on a PC, you can use a free tool called Midi Ox to see exactly what midi is coming into your computer, on Apple I don't know.

I don't know if it's jazz, or any good, but the top link in my sig is improvisational music using lots O' Live. I use a ton of looper, and efx on sends, and my jazzy guitarist friend just wails over it like crazy! Works wonderfully!

Yeah, we're still here!

You can play Kaoss pads with your dic# - or so I've heard.

I've had zero luck setting up the hypersynth editor as a module in Live . . . if anyone has done so successfully I'd love to hear about it!

Ableton Live responds well to midi notes - perhaps they might be less troublesome for most button presses. The only place I can see cc's being useful would be the pedals, for volume or wah or whatever. On/off stuff is trouble free for me with midi notes.

I like Fred Astaire.

I get sad when I see this stuff . . . I am happily using 6 Loopers and a ton of other stuff on an old computer, and it's all working very well for me. Maybe a different version of 8 might fix it for you? Check my sig (freakness) for a bunch of live shows where it functioned as intended (proof that i...

my looper plays back random buffers, even after i hit clear and record a new pass with something else. never said anyhting abou tthat in the promotion video for it. if it's a feature it's a pretty fucking bad one. :evil: Mine was doing that for the longest time, with a little snip of a James Browni...

I've found that I'm learning it better since I started thinking in terns of patterns along rather than across the neck. It's kind of difficult to explain but it depends on learning where the semitones fall (the ". o o ." positions in the map below. o . o o . o . o o . o . o . o o . o . o ...

Looper is working fine for me 3phase, no timing issues with a strictly on the fly live looping approach. My Lexicon JamMan is still the simplest hardware looper I've known and loved, but I am finding Live to be a great reason to leave it at home! I had to create loopback automation for a ton of shit...

Perhaps you could try using each bank of the FCB1010 to control a different looper. There are settings to quantize launch on the loopers. Or you could use the pedals on the FCB to cross-fade between the 2 loops. I use a MPD24 as a mixer etc for the 6 loopers in my template (which I use for live loop...

Yea, the 5 shapes idea is one of those aha moment things, somewhat hard to convey to learners, but I often start people out with that idea - it seems to be encouraging to present it as "just 5 scale shapes to learn", makes the process somewhat less intimidating. I've seen a lot of teaching...

Thats way nifty! I would be super psyched to see you implement custom scales, so it can help with arpeggios and note group subsets. I plan on using it to help me while I attempt to learn lap steel guitar in C6 tuning - it works great! I teach guitar occasionally, and I'll send people to your site fo...
