Re: Keeping Ableton intime with live band.

Running into problems trying to make my ideal drum rack

Hi guys and girls, I was reading a post about the best way to set up your samples to be able to scroll through them quickly at the touch or twist of a knob. a clever forum user sugested that an idea is to set up a drum rack where each pad contains another drum rack that may have just snares or kicks...

Re: controling drum rack with APC 40 & M4L

I second the nativekontrol aps. awsome and also give you chord and scale functions all at the click of 2 buttons. value for money if you dont understand how to configure that kind of thing (like me) and backed up by great support.

Re: Bags for APC 40. What works, what not! Taschen für die APC40

Australia, some people do world wide shipping, the only problem is that it is about
$50 US for shipping. I got mine from http://www.musicarts.com/ because it was the cheapest price+shipping i could find.

Re: DJ live set - sample search

I am working on a couple of similarly large sets. whilst not a search function I find using the "mixed in key" programe and organising everything down the set so similar songs and samples are nearby gives me good workflow and good harmonic mixing results

Re: moving the square on drum rack

simply putting a pitch effect will move what is played one each pad but it doesnt bring into view title/mute/solo views for each pad. as i said before, it is possible with the nativekontrol ap for mpd32 so it must be do able, im just not sure how.

Re: why might i be getting dropouts when my cpu is reading 15%?

Its not an explaination for the dropouts, but freezing the tracks that you arent altering will save on CPU, particularly if you do it to 10-15 of your 40+
