[amo] groove quantize different on mac compared to pc

Post by intellijel » Sat Mar 28, 2009 11:09 pm

On my macbook pro if I load a groove from the groove library on a midi clip, it instantly adjust the velocity and timing positions visually. It is also nice that once a groove is selected, any position that I write a new note in will have the appropriate velocity level drawn in to match the groove.

However on the pc running the exact same setup the groove quantize does not change anything visually (even though it is changing the audio) until you "commit" and then you will see it. Any new notes added are at a fixed velocity and do not follow the groove template.

Is this a bug or are the mac and pc versions just coded differently?

Hi,

I just checked on a Mac and couldn't reproduce what you are describing. The correct behaviour is that assigning a Groove to a clip shouldn't affect the data you see in the clip. Then pressing Commit should print the groove into the clip, meaning it changes the data.

If you can reproduce this on your Mac, could you:

- Restart Live.
- Create one MIDI clip.
- Drag a Groove onto it, showing the behaviour you're describing.

Then, choose "Do a bug reporting snapshot" from the Help menu, and then the corresponding file to beta@ableton.com.
