Re: Doing first live performance with Ableton

I recommend keeping your set up exactly as it is now. that way you'll be more confident and it'll be easier to perform. I wouldn't add a new soundcard into the mix unless you have time to practice using it. generally controllers are plugged into a usb port on the laptop and then the soundcard card g...

Re: LaunchPad Pro Users

Yeah. I know what you mean about about reassign in midi notes. Kinda weird that there's no midi editor for the LP Pro, probably something to do with their only being 4 modes.

Re: LaunchPad Pro Users

Or you could make a max for live device that remapped midi in notes to different midi out notes.I reckon that you could buy a license for max for live and learn how to use it in the time it would take for ableton to get around to your request. Making a midi editor isn't going to sell sample packs or...

Re: LaunchPad Pro Users

So you want to press c1 on a controller and get a different midi note come out. Is that right? You can do that on the launch control xl, korg nanokontrol and korg padkontrol.

Re: LaunchPad Pro Users

ah right. Maybe I've been misleading.. all of the buttons are midi notes - so they are all midi mappable in live. that's what i thought was meant. I use the user mode to do that. I havent tried to reassign the actual midi values for the pads. rereading the op I can see thats maybe what was meant. Th...

Re: Best way to route audio from laptop to sound system?

get a soundcard with as many balanced outputs as you can afford. until you get to that point, every low frequency hum you hear will be a source of anxiety. "Do I need to run my laptop off its battery", "Do I need to plug my laptop into a different circuit to the PA, or the same one&qu...

I get what you mean by drag and dropping now. Yeah dragging in scenes from alternative als files does get old fast.

Re: Patterns (song mode) for 'Scenes'.. Is there a way to do it?

i've always thought if I had an arrangement in mind I should switch to using the arrangement timeline, and if i had patterns that alternated in a predictable fashion (4 bars of this then 4 four bars of that) then i should consolidate them down to single scene. to me that makes more sense than trying...

Re: Ableton live midi routing

Set the controller to send out on a specific midi channel. Set the midi track to receive on a specific midi channel

Re: Ableton 9.5 64 bit, windows 8+ Video Export

I think it's theoretically possible but I've never got it to work. Following the instructions on codecs got me to a point where I could reliably fail to export video. I ended up going back to 32 bit Live.

Re: Grab on one granulatortrack, changes buffer of other

everyone experiences this. there is only one buffer for granulator. if you sample something new this will replace the buffer contents for all the granulators. if you want to make a granulator retain its current buffer youll need to save the buffer as a aiff or wav.
