Look what happened to Reason, you have to innovate but also compete with the other options that might entice your users to leave. Well stated, especially this point. Reason should be a motivator for what not to become. Live has to compete with the other DAWs in terms of features for recording and c...

This would be great. Cubase still has it today and it's called a Shared Copy. In Logic it's an Alias/Clone.

Try checking two things. First, disable the Automation Arm button if it is on. Second, check the midi bindings using the MIDI button. If there's anything listed on the list of bindings on the left side of the screen that looks suspicious, delete it.

FMe. A simplified synthesizer using FM synthesis. Similar to Operator, but subtracting the subtractive synthesis.

Audio tracks have been deprecated. Comping feature requests are now obsolete.

If you have a real electric guitar available then using a software amp/cab plugin will sound best. You’ll also need the an instrument (“Hi-Z”) jack to connect the guitar to on your audio interface. If your interface doesn’t have one then you can get a DI box to connect with. For the software plugin,...

You also need to download the PreSonus Hub, I think it’s called. Even if you have Studio One 4 Professional, it doesn’t automatically install the VST plugins. You need to go into your PreSonus account and get the Hub software to install the VST plugins.

In lieu of Live adding a normalize function in the future, here are two ideas. First is to use an external audio editor. Set the external editor to the program of your choice in Live’s options and open the clip in it. Then normalize it there. However, I think that is destructive. Izotope RX7 Element...

The first challenge is getting the recordings from everyone. Maybe you’ve already solved this? Below is what I would do. What’s most critical is that the recordings that choir members send you are in time with each other. The way to solve this is to send everyone the accompaniment track, and have th...

The tutorials at Groove3.com are excellent. I’d sign up for a 7 day free trial and view the Ableton Live 10 Explained videos and see if that’s enough to get you going. Tack on a 1 month subscription after if you need more time to view the training there.

It’s definitely a concern. It means Live is taxing the system heavily. That shouldn’t be happening upon initial load of a DAW with an empty project open. I had the same issue with my MBP, although recently it seems to have stopped. Perhaps Live was doing indexing for a long period of time, which fin...

Well stated. And that thread shows very consistent feedback from customers.

The XS8 has a USB port on the back that transfers MIDI. Download and install the USB MIDI driver from Yamaha and connect the piano to the computer using a USB cable. Then the piano can be used as a MIDI controller within Live.

That should be handled by the synth instrument itself. So it’s not a global setting in Live. Look for a setting in the instrument called portamento, glide, or slide. That would turn on and off this behavior.

Do you have another DAW you can try to see if it’s happening there also? That would rule out anything related to the audio interface and external hardware.

On that note, make sure there are no DSP effects running on that audio input channel on the MOTU.
