Re: Live randomly stop, then starts during session view playback

If you don’t have Resolume booted, does the problem still occur? Asking because I run Modul8 on my M1Max MBP along with Live (and both on a 2015 MBP before that). Although it’s always worked in the past I always feel that it could be pushing the system quite hard. Perhaps Resolume is temporarily tyi...

I’m just old enough to have started out when tape splicing was still a thing… but this is some next level shizz

Re: Ableton Live 11.1 - Stability, CPU, bugs and stuff...

Live 11.1 running with no issues on latest Monterey and M1Max MacBook Pro here. I’ve been using this system for 3 months, and it’s been a completely smooth experience for me. I’m surprised to hear the woes some Mac people are having, because my experience has been seamless. I use Waves/Izotope/NI/Ar...

Re: Ghosts of VSTs Past... Need an Exorcism on a .als File

Why do they hide it so?? :? … So mystery solved. User error. Who knows why it’s a semi-official feature, not yet brought into the fold? Not so much a case of user error, you’re being too hard on yerself! Just one of those things that crop up when you do a platform shift - feels like you do 150% of ...

Re: paul stretch

PaulStretch 3.0.0 is working on Monterey :D

I'm afraid I honestly can't remember where I downloaded it, but it is working!

EDIT: here, I think: https://xenakios.wordpress.com/paulstretch/

Re: Ghosts of VSTs Past... Need an Exorcism on a .als File

Interesting that this project was originated in 32bit Live. In my experience I’ve had the occasion where some old 32bit things (libraries, drivers etc) got automatically translated moving between different mac systems quite happily, then there’d be a hardware or software change and suddenly the low-...

Re: Ghosts of VSTs Past... Need an Exorcism on a .als File

To help keep track of plugins, do you have Device Slots enabled so that you can see at a glance the plugins on each track? https://i.postimg.cc/C54dhTnS/Screenshot-2022-04-10-at-12-22-37-PM.png Although, to be fair, this doesn't show you what plugins may be lurking deep inside Racks. https://www.loo...

Re: Session clips used to start on next beat?

If all the clips are all set to Global Quantize, is the actual Global Quantize setting set to 1 Bar? https://i.postimg.cc/Y03pFDGp/Screenshot-2022-04-07-at-3-34-05-PM.png There are some key commands that change the Global Quantize setting (see below - CNTRL + number on PC ) perhaps you accidentally ...

Re: Organizing Scenes (Master) in Session View

Hi, welcome to the forum! What I do (and I think many live acts work this way) is assign a MIDI control to each Scene. In my case I use a bunch of MIDI notes from my controller keyboard, one assigned to each Scene. If you enable “Select on Launch” in preferences > record/warp/launch, Live will scrol...

Re: Disable Warp, please

Has anyone found a solution to this? I just want to live record, and everytime I need to cut/move a track (for example; if I record a track, but want to remove a few seconds from the beginning of the track, and then "slide" the track back to the beginning, it changes the tempo in the midd...

Re: Parameter Envelopes and Controllers

Hi

Do you mean apart from drawing in stepped envelopes with the Pencil tool in Live’s GUI?

Or are you talking about hardware input from controllers?

Re: Post your most obscure Ableton Live knowledge

^^ Cool technique! An extension of the 10CC “I’m Not in Love” oohs backing vocals where they recorded single notes to multitrack tape and rode the console faders to change chords 😎
