Ableton Forum

I can't wait for (insert # here) years from now when all these things are fixed up by Ableton and we're in our rocking chairs talking about the Olden Times when everything needed these epic workarounds... Pretty much everything in my live set is done the way Bill recommended, (which means the set's ...

fuck yeah. not the one i saw before, but it seems to cover the bases. thanks!

On this topic, this is a cross-post from another thread...i did this same shit but with a Nanokontrol and it works awesome. http://fakemoneyproductions.blogspot.com/2010/06/if-you-build-it-you-will-have-blown-at.html http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_hR6zOTqDECE/TAbOd5CvzTI/AAAAAAAAACg/f-f46cxSJPY/s320/IMG_...

Aaaaaaaight. Dukes up. Get your MP3s out, gentlemen. Let's see how the scholar fares against the rookie.

It's easy enough in Arrange mode with punch in/out, but in Session mode it looks like you'll be needing some sort of third-party shit.

Hm. I seem to recall a thread (which of course I can't find) about creating scripts for virtual devices or something...some kind of APC emulation that would allow you to create a big red box around your selected scenes...it wasn't too long ago, maybe a month back? I'm drawing blanks.

Did a little writeup with some bad pictures.

It's looking like next week for the blog; I'll put the link up here when it's done. And if anyone here is in NYC, I'm doing a set at Don Pedro's on Friday night where this thing will probably catch fire and ruin lives. Come get loaded!

Yeah, I'm writing a blog post about it with pictures and stuff, in part for my dumb self to remember what the hell I did. It's basically 2 PCBs, one from the nanokontrol and the other from a qwerty keyboard. I saw someone did a foot controller thing here with the pc keyboard chip so I stole that ide...

See?

I wasn't sure this hack was going to work, but it did, and it was cheap.

I'm wondering if there's some way I can make the session view crosshairs (clip/scene selection x/y) more apparent than it is. When I'm playing live and I'm not right next to the screen, it's hard to tell which scene and which slot is selected. Is there some way I can create an APC-style Big Red Box ...

betabugs makes a cool stereo MIDI gate, i think it's called the gletabitch or something. i haven't used it recently but I used to use it all the time; it never gave me any problems.

Is the rewire delay still an issue?

definitely an issue. i got reason 4 and the newest version of Live, and it's always out of sync by (near as i can tell) the exact number of samples in the buffer. it sucks, but reason's worth it. one of these days i'm sure they'll get around to fixing it.

oh. shit. i guess i didn't read carefully enough. i thought you were talking bout general-purpose cueing. i don't think you can route the preview through a different channel. maybe i'm wrong...

sounds like portamento/glide to me
