Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

ah ok. I meant using the DAW as insert points for the mixer as a way off explaining things. I will send all audio pre processing from the mixer to the DAW and return in the same channels for further processing in the mixer. Like you could do with for example external effects. Good we cleared that up...

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

In a way I think we are talking about the same. Let's use an example with some numbers to clear things up: The hardware synth comes into Ableton with a latency of 5ms. This can be tackled inside the ableton channel so the audio is in sync with the other softsynths used inside Ableton itself. Ableton...

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

Latency was/is indeed a concern. I now have an overall latency of 10ms with Ableton Live and this should be the same with the X32 because it's the PC that gives that latency, not the mixer. In a way it's the same is I work now. The hardware synths coming into Live through my current interface now al...

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

I'm on Windows 7 but the A&H already dropped off my list because it couldn't do things I wanted: http://community.allen-heath.com/forums/topic/some-questions-about-the-qu-16 I also counted that I need at least 24 channels in total (analog in + DAW returns), so the A&H and Presonus ones are t...

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

Did you read my first post? I already have Ableton Push, why should a botter with a Launchcontrol? :roll:

And why should adding a digital mixer make things more complex? Routing in Ableton is a breeze.

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

Something like that Tascam, but then with a channel strip.

So that tascam + a console 1 could work. But the Tascam is discontinued and probably, if you count up the price for each controller with an audio interface, you'll be more expensive than a Behringer X32 Compact or Producer.

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

You are missing the point: I don't like the controllers like an APC40.

If you know a controller with 16 faders, dedicated knobs for gate, compressor, EQ, send/receives and panning I'm all ears.

Re: Setting up Roland Aira's with albeton

Yes, that manual that comes with the ARIA's isn't really that. It's more a quick start thing. They should release a full manual.

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

The 0.5ms is indeed the internal latency off the mixer. AI to AO. With the Steinberg I get AI to Ableton and from Ableton back to the interface about 10ms. I still can tweak my PC for even better latency if needed. Having 8 FX slots for a bus or insert and channel strip with Gate, Comp and EQ will m...

Re: Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

http://lividinstruments.com/products/ds1/ Ah, it's that Dubstop mixer. I think it's a nice attempt, and they wanted to keep the costs low. I also think you just can't make a good mixing controller if you keep it with basic MIDI. It will need more programming using VST's to link up. For example like...

Re: Sub Bass Kick (808) in Massive clicking? Help

can you share an mp3, it's hard to say like this. Also make a screenshot off the settings in Massive, so we can see what you did.

Digital mixer with Ableton, good or bad idea

Hey all, As a dayjob I'm a programmer for industrial automation systems (it's not PC programming) and that means sitting behind a laptop all day. At home, more often I feel not making music, just because I would be holding that mouse again and gaze at a PC screen. Also with a mouse, you can only do ...

Re: VST3 Support!

Good question? I don't have AU plugins for the moments (I think). But I do feel kind of stupid because I didn't notice the AU. :oops: :oops: Especially because I copy paste the text... Maybe because I've never used "AU" I didn't notice. I saw the news about the Roland, read VST3 and though...
