Re: Live 9.5

On 9.5 64 bit OSX Mavericks, the only synth in the new M4L Essentials that is working is the Multi. The others refuse to emit any sound. Anyone else having this problem? Also, no firmware update for Push 1 after Live 9.5 install, so how did they make these fixes they are claiming they made? And wher...

Re: Push 2 coming soon?

Meh. I got upset for about 30 seconds and then reminded myself that I've been making music on Octatrack/OP-1/MPC 1000 for the past month and have never been happier. I might just keep Push and my old laptop and never update it- so in 10 years I'll have some vintage, obsolete gear/software that still...

Re: Beatseeker in use?

I was a little hesitant about it but it really does work very well. I'm syncing Live to my Octatrack this way. It actually provides better sync than slaving Live to external midi clock from the Octatrack. Keep in mind, if you are using Push with a footpedal to record, it breaks this functionality si...

Re: Fixed Length recording starts off-measure

It simply does not work properly. I have contacted Ableton support about this and they have provided zero answers. There shouldn't be a debate about this. It just doesn't work they way it is supposed to. Period. And until they acknowledge this and fix it, it will be a useless function.

Re: Record with foot pedal breaks when Live is slave

That makes sense but what about no Beatseeker and external sync? Seems like Live has problems whenever you introduce any kind of syncing.....

Re: Ableton+Push+Octatrack

I actually found a good setup today. Instead of slaving Live to the octatrack midi clock, I'm using Beatseeker on an audio track which has a beat from the octatrack coming in. This seems to keep everything relatively tight. Any Live track I want to sample into the octatrack is sent out of the iconne...

Record with foot pedal breaks when Live is slave

I used to be able to press my foot pedal connected to Push and I could record perfect guitar loops. Now, if I sync Live to an external clock (Elektron Octatrack) that function is gone. The pedal now only functions as a Play button. So to get around this I used Beatseeker instead of slaving Live and ...

That's Lera Lynn and she's actually from Georgia. She went to school at UGA. She's not from Canada nor is she Goth.


Geez. I tried to quote someone's post and screwed it all up. Sorry

Re: Does streaming really help?

I would believe in the advertisment angle with a 2-3 times play limit per track. After that you buy it (with the direct convenient link provided as you mentioned) or you will never hear it again. This would even have a great knock on effect with cheapskates, since they would continously have to sea...

Re: Yosemite and performance

I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro 13" with 8g of RAM and the only problem I have is Ableton Live starting really slow when I first open it up. After that, the cpu doesn't really take much of a hit at all. My biggest project might use 22% or something close to that...

Re: External effects with KP3

I usually just use the tap tempo feature on the KP3 to get it in time. Being a little bit out of time keeps things interesting for me. You can also send sync out from Live via midi. I've never had a problem doing this but I've seen other people complaining about the timing drifting off. Again, tap t...

Re: Tuner doesn't register for any instruments

I think it's mainly for guitar and bass type inputs. Works great for that.

Re: OK to throw out old v8 manual & box?

Not sure why you would want to do this. I guess give them away to someone. Don't throw them away though.
