...there is a workaround for that keystroke problem:

hold<shift> while clicking on the little <open plugin> symbol.

that opens a dedicated window for plugin keystroke handling...

the only problem:

you need to be on mac... (somebody might know why...??!)

greetz!

that >takeover< mode is it, that makes me wonder... why does it work after i changed faders with my mouse but not if i moved it with controllers?? does not make sense to me! it seems to work that live compares the actual value with the one beeing sent. so why is there always a compromise with fixed ...

hey guys out there, how can i prevent that value-jumps after changing controller-mapping setups? i mean, ain´t the preference >waiting for pickup< exactly there to prevent that? why does it only work after changing values with my mouse?? what sense does it make to use several controllers for multipl...

thanks for your detailed reply, that >touchpad2midi< plugin was partially the reason for that idea. but, as you correctly said, to make it work with abletons >special< key handling, (try to type numbers into NI-plugins :x ...), it does simply not recompense the effort. i stopped to call it useful if...

why not make a notebooks touchpad able to controller-assigns?
it's strange having a ribbon controller here that i can't really use...

yes, there is some kind of bug with absynth (live7/absynth4) recognizing program changes when set in clips. (but luckily no crashes!) and - all of my plugins seem to have that problem, too! i would have to set all notes at least 2/16th after clip start if i use program changes. if i don't do that, t...

"Windows only: If the DebugOption “-_EnsureKeyMessagesForPlugins” is set in the Options.txt, we make sure that all key messages reach a plugin... Can't find any settings like that, how could i set it?? (Windows, Live 7.07) What am i missing? Right now, Absynth won't recognize any keystrokes at...

i do have a good feeling..
that will perfectly fit into abletons update-philosophy.
it would bring the instrument- /drum-rack vision from the last updates up to the arrangement level...

...If you combine this with the arrangment/meta/nested/whatever clips created on a track by track basis, you should have all the flexibilty you are asking for without it getting too messy. Let me know if I'm missing something. that's it exactly, you are not missing it :) folder tracks could handle ...

This is also a bit similar to nesting actual projects: what is there was a clip that you could double click and a whole new project would open, all the plugins etc... don't need to open a new whole project, guess i have much of them already :roll: i need to have "projects" accessible in m...

Folder clips would also make it possible to implement "Vocal combing" ...it would make it possible TO USE ALL of my music i've made so far! right now i have dozens of arrangements on my hard drive, each of them containig several useful sections! tell me, how do you guys bring them all tog...

and it should also provide a way of editing, move, etc, the clips from within the main clip. yep, folder tracks! in session view, folder tracks could handle the meta-clips like any other clips, but logically without the option to unfold.. in arrangement view, these clips/tracks can be unfolded to h...

hello dr. wackler! seems like that is something wanted long time ago: http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=589599#589599 >Magnetotron< wrote: >Please keep this alive because this is exactly the type of innovation Live needs!

hello Angstrom, >meta clips< sounds good, too ;-) althought i am not shure if we're talking about exactly the same thing... (sorry, but i can't set that much time free to do such impressive graphics like you do...;-) the idea is more like a >capture (and insert) scene< for arrangement view! just sel...

...rather predictable than an idea...

cheers,
