Dual screen option?

Post by Drumattic » Thu Nov 02, 2006 3:20 pm

I was reading in Computer Music/Mixing edtion that there was a dual screen set up for Live 6 ...Can we use 1 screen for meters and the other for tracking?
Maybe I read it wrong but this would be really cool

almost, i think what he has going is a dual monitor set up and Ableton stretched across both. I think thats what CM probably means as well , but It would be cool to have one screen for mix and the other for tracking or clips view...
thanks for the reply

the best Ableton dual screen setup is Live on one screen and the forum on the other. Period.

Ha, not visually impaired, but did not even realize this apple mouse had a scroll wheel. Guess, that's all part of the fun getting used to mac (only a few weeks now, but I love it)
