Re: MacBook Pro 2018 Microphone Inputs just showing 1, not 2

It definitely wasn't feedback. Had every channel on "no input." It was eerily similar to the sound that used to come out of FL Studio back in 2004, when I would stop recording audio it would do it- I can't describe it.

Re: MacBook Pro 2018 Microphone Inputs just showing 1, not 2

On my 2018 MBP, Live emits all sorts of terrible noises when I'm away from my audio interface and just use the laptop speakers. Maybe Live has some problems with running without an audio interface on this particular model and OS. Weird.

Re: push 2 not connecting beyond logo

If it's not showing up as a control surface in Live, make sure the usb cable is pushed all the way into Push. When I first turned mine on, it wasn't plugged in all the way and I couldn't figure it out. Turns out I needed to really push the cable in. I think it even emits a little click when it's rea...

Re: Guitar Effects Emulation

I've read that Gilmour's sound on that particular solo was his strat through a big muff pedal (fuzz at around 9 o clock and volume knob on guitar turned back a little so the notes clean up). Not sure what plugins you are using to try to get there...

Re: Recording Live Looping with Loop Pedal and Ableton Push

All you need is a sustain pedal with a 1/4" plug. Plug this into the back of Push (the innermost input-forgot the number). The sustain pedal will control the record button on Push.

Re: Why does Ableton keep adding new features that no one wants?

Look, even Deadmau5 agrees with me. And tweeted it to all 3.6 million of his followers. So? The real question is whether he suggested it to Ableton and made a suggestion for people to vote on. The widespread inclination to whine instead of to act in these forums is depressing. Stop being crybabies ...

Re: Edit recording in session view-workflow question

I do this too and it's pretty quick. But it would be nice to have a sample editor inside Live. I know it would be cool if Ableton put their own personal touch on it too. The only other thing I've ever asked for is a Tuner and after some deemed it unnecessary, it finally appeared and I use it everyda...

Re: Complete novice wants to record folk music

Live will work just fine for recording folk music. I use to record all kinds of acoustic instruments.

Re: Live Looping and Recording External MIDI Instruments

The only way I've been able to implement something like this is by incorporating Push into my setup.

Re: Convert audio clip to simpler on Push 1

Is this something that might happen in the next version? The notes for the new beta mention the new simpler modes being available for Push 1. What exactly does this mean and how would it work?

Re: Setup Ableton Live for Live-Looping

I had one of those fcb foot controllers for years and could never get it to work right with Live. The only thing I found that works perfectly for live looping is Push with a sustain pedal in the footswitch input. This controls the record button in Live. I know it's kind of an expensive solution but ...

Re: Does a reliable audio interface really exist?

I love my Scope interfaces (Sonic Core), both PCI and external box types. It's a lot more than an interface, it's a complete DSP studio with mixers, synths, modular, fx, samplers,... Very good sound quality, and although very reliable, it gave me a BSOD occasionally in the past. However, for my mac...
