surely you'd need some kind of consciousness though right ? Yeah.... But then there is the famos line: "does a tree falling in the forest make a sound if no one is there to hear it" .. I guess the key ingreedient in music, at least from a human beings perspective, is a human being.. So..,...

Maybe that means they'll be decompiling your set to see if it was really made in 24 hours? dunno...

They probably installed a hightech spy-bug in the 8.3 version..

if you want to get all smartsy.. time is obviously necessary.. so are sounds.. structure looseness can be debated.. but there is usually one of those too... :P YES.. Debate!!

There are only two winners in this contest. Ableton and soundcloud.

I dont know how much of the basics youve practised, but I quickly understood how important the fundame...

I dont have Live in front of me at the moment, but this depends on whether your midi button only sends "NOTE ON" or both "NOTE ON+NOTE OFF" when you push it. + Is it a toggle button or is it momentary? It has to do with how live handles midi messages when mapping buttons. Which c...
