Ableton Forum

Hey all, Just purchased a refurbished mid 2014 Macbook Pro 13" Retina to use for recording/production and performing. The computer itself seems pretty good, but kind of sluggish with Ableton, which I dont understand because my MBPr exceeds the minimum requirements. i5 2.8 GHZ dual Core 8 GB RAM...

bump?

Thanks guys. I didnt want to make a new thread, but why is Ableton using so much RAM?? I checked activity monitor and here's the issue: Physical Memory: 8.00 GB Memory Used: 7.91 GB Virtual Memory: 8 GB Why am I almost maxing my RAM when using Ableton with just 2 instruments (four tracks)??? Seems a...

That part was easy! Thanks guys Unfortunately I am noticing a strange issue, there are NO drums in Ableton 9 Standard now that I have installed it onto my macbook. There aren't any samples, recordings or anything for drums. The "Drumrack" word is there with the arrow but it's empty... any ...

Hey all,
I recently just purchased a refurbished 13" Macbook Pro Retina from Apple. Pretty excited about this!
I want this to become my primary workstation, how can I go about registering Ableton 9 Standard onto this? Do I need to cancel my current Windows 32 bit license?
Thanks!

Nope, everything starts at 1.1.1
I even moved the first midi note forward a little bit, still happens..

Not sure where to post this, but I've just begun experiencing some weird issues with ableton. Basically the very first note in a MIDI clip..clips and no sound comes from that note, it's been quantized and the volume/midi volume is the same as all the other notes in the midi clip, it just doesnt play...

Try doing this: - Create a MIDI track. - Drag the audio that's just been recorded into the MIDI track It SHOULD create a Simpler that contains the audio sample. Nope,just converts audio to midi. Edit: Ok I dragged it in the bottom where it says "Drop an instrument or sample here", did tha...

I am trying to follow the tutorial from Sound Academy on Making NuGaze in Ableton. In video one, he creates an audio track and a midi track (he's using Sylenth, Im using Synth1) He sets the Audio From to "Resampling" and enables track record on both the midi track and the audio track He th...

Hey all, I am still pretty new to Ableton (used it for a little over a week now) and Im trying to get a good mix/mastering of my songs. This is something I've never really done before so if anyone has any good tutorials on it please share them :D Also, my drums keep getting "lost in the mix&quo...

Hey all, I've been playing guitar for about 8 years, in mostly heavy metal bands and I just wanted to try something totally new and refreshing musically. I purchased a Novation Launchkey Mini from Guitar Center a few days after new years and have been writing songs on the fly in Ableton, it's a very...

any input on the songs I have created? the audio-quality is very good, and you are a sensible composer thank you! :D also, in the project I am currently working on, I keep "losing" the drums in the mix (all the other layered instruments sound louder and it's hard to hear the drums, specif...

any input on the songs I have created?

Here's my soundcloud with all of the music I have made in Ableton over the last 7 days. Pretty satisfied with these results, though I really wanna learn more and grow. This is my first time doing electronic music (I've played in metal bands in the last 7 years, thought I'd try something fresh) https...
