I wonder why the LED rings and buttons aren't lit when I use the "ableton" template of the remote SL. Is this normal? They are lit when I try other templates, so what's the problem with the ableton template? I set everything up like it is described in the novation DAW setup guide. not usin...

Doesn't work here. I've set the Automap settings to "focus device = Launchpad", but no automap functionality. I can't even show or hide the automap head up display.

I'm using the Remote SL MKII with its template 32 as a control surface in Live 8. I wonder why the record button doesn't work, but most of the other transport buttons work as expected? And pressing the stop button twice should set the time to 1.1.1, this doesn't work either.

thanks for the hint!
I wonder how to do that, I didn't find anything in the max for live manual yet. I'll have to do some more reading apparently...

How do you enable midi learn for parameters in max for live? For example I want the "freeze" button and the reset buttons in buffer shuffler to be enabled for midi learn. and it would be cool to control the buffer shuffler grid with launchpad...

When I set buffer shuffler to 16 steps and smoothing to 0% , every following repetition of the (1 bar) loop sounds different - whithout auto-dice! I have no explanation for this. But with smoothing bigger than 0 % or with 8 steps buffer shuffler acts as expected. weird...

very weird - I get clicking noises when I move a clip in arrange view from one track to another, or ahead in time (no noise when moving back in time). This happens only when the sequencer is not playing! And Live indicates that (midi or key) remote signals are being sent - I have no clue why, becaus...

It took me more than an hour now to find the link to the free update, but I cannot recreate it. Very, very confusing. I think there is a problem with the spectrasonics website or online shop.

was never that into em anyways. But I agree thats a lame tune. This one's great though :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDTXljIqxRE I didn't know that 8O the show in Cologne was great, by the way, a wall of sound. and they combined the LED lightshow from their last tour, which was too abstract IMH...

Heard them playing it live yesterday in Cologne. it was the first encore and I couldn't? believe that Massive Attack can write such a mediocre song. Sad. The keyboard "melody" is really getting on my nerves... I suppose they tried to write a cool portishead style song. The other new songs ...

In the September issue of the german "keys" magazine there is an Ableton workshop where they mention that the quantize function can be used to humanize a midi clip that was created with step-recording. if you use quantize settings below 85% you should hear irregularities. Can anyone confir...

this group buy could be a low priced way to update from TRackS 3 standard to TRackS 3 deluxe. IK support told me that you can load the singles plug-ins into TRacks 3 standard. But can you use the deluxe presets? Did anyone try this? I think the presets are very helpful for quick and reasonable resul...

Fuck me, I must hav lost touch with the "electronic music scene" If this is the sort of stuff that's selling! That bassline is something I would have made the first few weeks of getting my music equipment together and trying to suss stuff out ( i.e shit and binned way back), I thought It ...

I don't want to spoil the enthusiasm but... do you know that there is a problem with the authorization of IK multimedia plug-ins when you use Mac OS 10.5.7 or 10.5.8? I can't use ARC and TRacks 3 anymore, because everytime I start my computer I have to authorize them again. Support admitted this pro...

Novation Remote ZSL and Korg microKontrol midi ports are called differently with Mac OS 10.5.8 than before. microKontrol is just called "USB device" now, Remote SL port have got slightly different names. Can anyone confirm this? this shouldn't be a big problem, but it confused my midi port...
