oh, and I'm running Reason 5

I have 3 pieces of hardware, each is used for is used for a different program. The Maschine hardware obviously controls the Maschine software. I've got a behringer bcr2000 that I'm using to control sends and fx on those sends inside of ableton. The bcr is also used to scroll through and trigger midi...

I assigned the scene launch and scroll functions to my other controller so I'm using the bcf for only Reason now. I still have 3 main problems though: 1) Preset 1 of the bcf is all configured. It's main purpose it to control the volumes of 8 synth devices with the faders and the 8 encoders control f...

I haven't looked into updating the firmware or installing view. Could you elaborate on the functionality of the modes? The reason preferences only allows me to choose one of two midi ports for the input and output. Is there a way to use more than 2 ports and assign each to a different device in my c...

Hey guys... My setup uses 8 midi tracks in Ableton to send midi data to 8 synths in Reason. One of the controllers I'm using is a Behringer bcf2000. I have buttons assigned to the "previous patch" and "next patch" of the combinator in my reason rack and I also assigning a knob to...

nvm, i didn't read all the way through, haha. I got it now, thanks!

Well the default function of 'slice to new midi track' puts your slices into a drum rack for you, so you're good there. As for triggering the slices, I recommend checking out Hanz Petrov's python scripts for the APC. The latest update adds a step sequencer as well as a multitude of other features t...

It's not great for performance because you have to hard map your entire clip launch grid but it's fantastic for production if you can put up with slicing/follow actions/mapping every time you want to use a different audio source. Yeah, I'm not trying to map the launch grid for every audio source. W...

You may need to look at the nativeKONTROL presents for the APC40. I don't think this is what i'm looking for. I am sure that you can put all of your sliced notes into a drum rack and then use the APC40 to trigger the drum rack by using the nice squidgy jelly thingys :D Its about time I incorporated...

is there any way i can rig my apc40 to accommodate my needs of triggering sliced audio? ideally, i'd like to drag in some of my already produced beats, slice to a new midi track and delete the midi notes on this midi track, then record me triggering the sliced up transients with the 40 pads. im only...

so i tried sending the .als file to my friend and when it wouldn't operate for him, i figured i should probably send him the individual .alc files that make up the projects. i told him to paste the folders with the .alc files into his Live folder, but they still wont work...he's also tried dragging ...

Thanks S4racen, i read up on using the invert phase function of the utility and it makes a lot of sense, i can't wait to try it out once i get my apc40 back

If you map the a and b send controls on a track to the same knob/control and then reverse the ranges you'll get effectively a switch between your send a and b.... D I'm not trying to switch between sends A and B though. I'm trying to switch any of four decks between two different routing paths. Let...

I think i have it mostly figured out... Lets just say i have 4 tracks instead of 16 to simplify things. Say i have my beats, bass, melody, and misc. tracks all routed through Bus B (with beat repeats triggered by a pad controller on it) and then from Bus B to the master track. I also have Bus A with...

I use Hanz Petrovs APC remotescripts and lock my A and B effects channels to my encoders... So theoretically I can mod the 8 encoders (normally for pan and sends 1-3) to control 8 different effects in an audio rack and use the 4 buttons to select which "deck" the encoders effect? I don't ...
