Ableton Forum

As a very heavy user of automation, I am deeply pissed that I can no longer view specific automation tracks over-top and/or underneath specific tracks in the 'normal' Arrangement view (e.g. without this new 'toggle' behavior). AFAIC it's a downgrade of behavior and a huge bummer. I vastly prefer the...

IMHO, Trilian blows away all the NI content. I have Komplete Ultimate, so I've tested out all the Scarbee stuff. I use Trilian all the time, and I never touch the Scarbee stuff anymore. It's just not as good! Trilian also has more flexibility and depth. But the botton line for me is that it just sou...

in the Modulation tab, Filter Mod is a simple control -- you just enter an amount.

But Echo has two filters, not one; there's a high-pass and a low-pass.

So what is Filter Mod actually modulating? Just the LP? Just the HP? both?

It was a very entertaining interview, that's for sure! The part that resonates with me, re: music, is the part about the Song being more important than anything else, and how many people seem to miss the point. I think this is often especially true in electronic music. So much emphasis on the tools ...

My vote is for Room. It's my go-to reverb, the only reverb I ever really need. I also own Vintage Verb. I like it a lot... but I don't actually use it much, because in most cases I prefer to use Room. on a silly (because I can't back it up with real, technical info) / subjective level, Room sounds m...

Those are all good points Tarekith... to clarify a bit though -- The "mono compatibility" thing e.g. the myth of the mono club speakers is sort of a whole other issue, wherein people say "check your mix in Mono" and all that... but I see that as a separate thing, since it's about...

I'd like to discuss, at some great length, the notion that "We should be mixing more with Mono" and what that means to an Ableton user who works mostly In The Box today. I can't tell you how often I come across online articles, youtube videos, forum threads, etc in which the gist of the me...

Preferences has a setting for locating your Live 8 library on your system; when that's been done (optionally) it shows up in the browser as you've pointed out.

Why this is worth a poll, though, is beyond me.

Use it if you need it.

Omnisphere 2 and be done with it

On a Mac, 2014 rMBP. Well consider me envious, then. I gave up on the software when their tech support couldn't help me at all with the constant crashes or the CPU spikes. It's possible it was caused by certain mastering plugins, but I've since been able to use the exact same plugins elsewhere (Ado...

I use Studio One almost every single day for client work, can't even remember the last time it crashed. Actually I can't even remember it crashing even once, great app. Definitely research it a bit more, I think it's probably my favorite DAW after Live. On a Mac or a PC ? Studio One 3 crashed so of...

anyway £50 to get access to the arrangement scratchpads is probably worth it. Along with that section drawing ("blocks"?) thing. Live really doesn't offer any good arranging tools, and that Presonus Studio 3 Scratchpad feature is pretty damn intuitive. have you actually tried using it? It...

You don't, you just keep cropping it. But, as noted above, there are perfectly good reasons for why this behavior exists (flattening of time based effects to preserve tails in the 'intro' portion of the loop, e.g. reverb, delay, etc). Note that if you consolidate the first half and loop it, any time...

The assertion that a synth you aren't using in your sessions is somehow causing your CPU increase is.... highly suspect.

As da hand already said, you need to make the "chains" section of the drum rack visible, then you will see a volume and panner for every pad. Change / modulate / automate that pan as wanted, it will only effect the pad/simpler in question. Or, in Simpler, tab over to the other page of cont...
