Using Ableton as an Automated Vocal Processor

Post by drum4chops » Mon Mar 22, 2021 7:47 pm

I'm attempting to process a vocal for a live show. And I want to automate effects for this, BUT I don't want to monitor the dry vocal signal from Ableton, just the wet vocal.

Example: There's a big chorus coming up and I only want the delay send opened up for just one bar.

Understand, this is a live singer, not an audio clip.

Any help?

Maybe Automation in Arrangement or automation/modulation "dummy clips" with Follow Actions in Session.

Online manual is still Live 10, Live 11 has even better Follow Action stuff (and also the interface changed, you can access Live 11 manual PDF from Help in the menu in Live 11, then check the 11 equivalents of the above sections).
