Maybe I'm wrong. I've only ever used 32 bit.

And isn't there a compatibility problem with Ableton 10? We won't be able to open old projects that have 32 bit plugins?

Often 64 bit is an upgrade or not available.

Re: Am I The Only One Not Impressed?

I'm very impressed with Ableton 10. Regarding the GUI, they managed to please both camps, which is sensible. I hated the old GUI, but quite like the new GUI. Then there are the many improvements. And although I'm not usually interested in new plugins, Ableton 10 newbies look like they might actually...

Re: Any Improvements In The Audio Engine Of Ableton Live 10?

I did find a change in Ableton’s sound engine vs Logic’s. The anticipation is killing me! What was the change that you noticed? Most people talk about "audio engine" in terms of sound quality. That's not a real thing. A wav file is a wave file, etc. The issue is normally due to using the ...

Re: 10 is announced!

I watched this thorough video (except he didn't look at max4live or push stuff). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l0nKLe9mouM At first glance, Ableton Live 10 looks like a profound improvement. Better control of browser, better GUI, multiple midi part editing, better automation, great new plug-ins, m...

Re: 10 is announced!

Do dark skins work better? For example, can you see drum names in the midi editor?

Re: Studio Set Up 2017

Reviewers say that JBL 305P are best bang for buck monitors. Not as popular as the ones you mention. I got the JBL's and they have great range and evenness for the price. Sounds sort of grindy, but that could be due to the fact that mine are standing on a thin plastic table. :oops:

Martin Gifford orange lets you having several project being open at once too fyi. i never tried studio one tho and know nothing about it. i had great expectations for l10 but considering they rely on m4l and push heavily there's nothing to be agitated about imo This short video shows two of the bes...

Re: Live 10 around the corner?

I think it's pretty safe to assume that if Live is going to keep evolving, at some point it will need to start anew. I'm no programmer, but if Ableton are going to provide some of the most requested major changes (better browser, proper scaling of every part of the UI), it seems to me that they mig...

Re: Live 10 around the corner?

Yesterday, I received an email survey about improvements I'd like to see in Ableton. That makes me think they are only beginning to start work on version 10.

Re: Color Blind Here and I Need Some Help w/ skins

This sounds very odd coming from a color blind person, but is there anyway some one could make me a couple of pink and purple skins? I got some enchroma glasses and pink and purple look fantastic with them. Thanks.... not and ad for enchroma nor endorsing them in anyway at all. They are just generi...

Re: live10, native lfo, ios vs android, ableton vs bitwig

I hate both grey and orange. I'd never move to orange. I like Studio One for its songwriting features and ability to have a few songs open at once, but haven't moved over yet. Not sure what I'm waiting for. :oops: Maybe waiting to see if they make Ableton v10 significantly better. Doubt it.

Re: Selecting Multiple Clips in Arrange View

In the meantime, I guess the workaround is to create a new track and drag down the clips you want to change together, then select them all in the usual way and do your edits.

Re: Waveform doesn't change in Selector Kit

You'll find the individual samples in the Zone Editor of the Sampler when you activate the Sel(ection) button. Activating Auto Selection will select all samples when you hit the pad, because key- and velocity zones are full range for all of them. The sample selector does not jump to the sample you ...

Waveform doesn't change in Selector Kit

Hi, In the Selector Kit, when I move the "Sample" Macro Control to change to a different kick (or whatever), the waveform in the sampler doesn't change. Am I doing something wrong, or is there a bug? I read about this somewhere else, but can't find it. It's important because the samples do...
