Adjusting channel faders simultaneously

is there a way to increase or decrease all the faders at the same time?

similar to how you can hold alt and adjust the size of the channels at the same time but with the volume sliders instead?


thanks

hehe, what's that quote..."talking about music is like dancing about architecture"? Try this : create a simple bassline that consists of just one pitch, say D. Now create a pad that is just one note, start with D. Now change the pad note around slowly and really listen and feel for how th...

this is the best one EVER for me...... pressing the -> arrow when in the sample library to audition a sample while your track is playing. you can adjust the volume of the sample library with the headphone icon on the far right. it sounds like nothing much but here is where it gets juicy... the quant...

Best controller to use ableton with minimal keyboard/mouse?

ive been looking at the novation zero sl so far, love the automap feature! also the bcr + bcf combo (maybe get both?). its a shame you have to load a new template each time u switch vstis/plugins etc. or do u? anyways, i would love to get a home studio where i can almost get away from using the mous...

Set as root never works for my external harddrive

seems ok with my normal laptop hd but when i turn my external harddrive on it never sets my "samples" folder as my root. I can set it as root whilst i start up live, but as soon as i restart it, i need to set it up again.

not really a big deal, just thought id ask.

thanks

mesmer: thanks for all that info... i think the issue may be related to the melody simply not matching the pad sequence. in key or not, some melodies just wont sit properly with certain sequences. for now im just going to do it by ear, hopefully in the next few months ill be able to figure out where...

i never really got into logic but ive messed around with loads of trackers back in the day, also cubase sx, nuendo, fruity loops, acid, cool edit, etc all these programs had something that started to annoy me which in turn affects my production. since catching on the live, i can honestly say that i ...

bassline, melody, chords in key issues?

is there a specific formula which is followed to get your bassline in sync with your melody, chords etc? i write my intro, drop in the bassline, then try and write a melody but never sure if its in the right key. i usually have my back beat/off beat on a C3....if this is the case which note should m...
