Sounds like you are close. Although i get the impression you are expecting Live to receive midi from the ER-1, which isn't necessary if all you need is the sequencer to follow Live's transport. If you set the ER-1 to EXT, the device is expecting to receive midi clock from the master. In this case Li...

If you want to do this properly you should be looking at true peak metering, and there are several plugins out there that do this. I don't think this should be built into Live though, mixing visually is a dangerous path. Besides true peak metering requires oversampling which is a big CPU hog (afaik,...

"I'm putting an isolation booth in a shed. The booth is good on it's own but not good enough to block out all the surrounding traffic noise. The shed is going to be 10x10x8(ft) I plan on using Resilient Channel Furring (Hat Channel) with whisper clips and 2 sheets of drywall separated with gre...

Max can send receive OSC so i imagine u can do in M4L, but i havent tried it personally.

Here's my attempt at clearing things up: dBFS is only relevant within digital audio systems, with 0 being the absolute maximum. Anything beyond 0 will lead to clipping as the DAC on your sound card cannot go beyond it. Be wary of saying "X" dBVU (and other analog scales) is equal to "...

Is it right that a RMS-value of -10dB is "perfect"? Well it might be perfect for one style of music, but not for another... A Rock / EDM song is likely to have a much louder RMS than say a classical / acoustic. I really only use it as a comparative benchmark so i can see how much dynamics...

My guess is you have "normalize" enabled in the render settings.

RMS is perceived loudness, as opposed to Peak which is too fast for the ears.

I also like the Sonalksis FreeG... Slightly off topic, but I find X-ISM is handy to check for inter sample peaks.

I'm not sure I understand what you are expecting from the Filter Freak 2 plugin in terms of functionality. From what i can tell you cant setup the plugin to process left / right channels independently. This thread seems to suggest you cant do this... But I could be wrong :mrgreen: ! My suggested app...

utility (live/audioeffects) width: 0% This will give you a stereo signal where both channels are identical. If you want to process each channel individually i suggest you try creating an effects rack. Using chains and panning you should be able to accomplish what you are after. I use Soundtoys plug...

hi all, a bit short on time today, just skimming through this interesting post.... i have a couple of other things which may be of interest, some of which has been partially covered. But if you want to explore this further i recommending the couple of books below, and no i dont work for amazon! One ...

the basic answer is no. here's 2 ways i can think of attempting it and most likely failing to get something useful: 1. applying a notch EQ around the frequency range of the voice will impact other musical elements, making the mix sound crappy. 2. u could also try to get the original voice stem and d...

thanks jake, ok here's a bit more info to clarify the scenario: a friend of mine is considering switching from akai mpc to NI mascine -> daw sequencing. in his setup, it would be to run DFH superior (FYI, its a multilayered drum sample plugin) as a VST / AU instrument (in either Live or Logic). he i...

WRT to the alias clips feature, here's my workaround: when u loop a clip in arrangement that is say 2 bars long over a duration of 8 bars, and say u want to introduce a variation on the last 2 bars (of the 8 ). i use the consolidate clip function (apple+J shortcut). This really works well for MIDI, ...

ok one question for u maschine users:

is it possible to send the midi out from maschine's internal sequencer to another VST/au instrument?
this would be in real-time, not dragging the midi sequence onto DAW...

thanks,
