Re: Is my hearing wrong but, all synths notes are evenly spaced.

Well disagree all day on this one so ill watch some youtube vids to find out which youtubers are pro. C# is a half tone above C. All tones are equally spaced. And each A is double the freq as one before it. That's what I currently believe. I'm pretty sure as you go up the white keys its a 7 "la...

Re: Is my hearing wrong but, all synths notes are evenly spaced.

Um, yes 12 evenly spaced semitones is correct. a black note is halfway between the two white notes either side of it look at this image, and ignore the colour of the notes. http://www.agnes-bruckner.com/apronus_images/facepiano.gif each consecutive note is one semitone up from its predecessor. whit...

Re: Is my hearing wrong but, all synths notes are evenly spaced.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you but Black notes are supposed to be half a note up from a white note. is incorrect and strangely phrased. <socrates> Is there a black note which is one half note up from the white note E? Is there a black note which is one half note up from the white note B? </socrat...

Is my hearing wrong but, all synths notes are evenly spaced.

Black notes are supposed to be half a note up from a white note. But Abletons, Massive, ABSynth & Synthmaster all sound like 12 evenly spaced notes. I started making my own synth and found equations on the net like: x = (440. * exp(.057762265 * (x - 69.))); Seems everywhere people use this equat...

Just tried out spectrasonics omnisphere...

Tried it off a friend. 50 Gig in size and would of thought quite a few good sounds. How wrong I was, takes ages to change sounds too so got bored real quick. To be honest think when the developers decided to make 50 Gig of sounds they needed visit a hospital and have their head examined, would of th...

Looking at the credits in the Help/About within live there seems to be more developers at ableton than forum users. Just wondering, who makes the tea? Seriously though, with all these devs how come you have synths that can't compete with the best vst's? So, I know you have MAX but why not bring out ...

Set scene play length & play next scene

Set the play length of a scene and option to "play next" scene please.

I don't use the arrangement view at all, I use the clip play lengths and "play next" function.
Having this new ability would help me quite a bit.

Re: Grouping of Group's

Grouping of group's probably not quite the title I should of given. What I mean is when you group some tracks, instead of the additional volume control and scene launches being with the group, position them to the right side of the app for quicker access. What I found useful was the scene launches w...

Grouping of Group's

Once created a daw similar to live but the "copy/paste", "undo/redo" & "drag/drop" features became too much, I also had multiple sessions. I'm only a single developer. Any way's this is not a request as such. More a take my feature and make something of it. I had a ...

Re: Recording Automation frequency rate option.

Here's a pic with the option.txt file now deleted. Strange but as can see now not missing any breakpoints. Thing is when moving a mouse onscreen must receive 100's of events per second and live is only recording about 8 per 1/8 second. Question is whether live is recording the data once per audio bu...

Re: Recording Automation frequency rate option.

Well, I deleted the options.txt file and restarted live and the recording is back to normal even after pressing stop. I then added the options.txt file and restarted live. 1.0 or 0.1 setting makes no difference, but still loses all the data once I press stop. Before pressing stop I get about 8 break...

Re: Recording Automation frequency rate option.

Here's what I currently have: 0.1 setting does record more data than 1.0 so that's ok. But here's a pic while I'm recording: https://s18.postimg.org/e63e0fdtl/0_1before.jpg And here's a pic after I press Stop: https://s4.postimg.org/ary3myu5p/0_1after.jpg Now have lost all the data. How do I fix this?

Re: Recording Automation frequency rate option.

HELP! If I now change this automation option it now does nothing, it's stuck recording just about nothing.
I have deleted my preferences.cfg file, started with a new live instance but does not fix this. What does?

Can't compare otherwise :(

Re: Recording Automation frequency rate option.

Well, you have the instructions back to front. When recording automation data, Live smoothes the recorded data with a pre-defined value. The default value is = 0.45 Higher value = more breakpoints eliminated. Example: -ThinningAggressiveness=0.1 -ThinningAggressiveness=1.0 records a lot more data th...
