problems with pitch in live
so sometimes my synths will just all go outta tune when i have pitch bend automation. its really annoying. pretty sure it has to do with a the pitch wheel. anyone else have this problem? maybe a solution?
Re: problems with pitch in live
Hardware synths? Works fine for me with usb and MIDI connected synths. Could u be more specific?

Odd. I have symptohm, analog/suite instruments (live devices are not vsts), and plenty other vsts and don't have an issue with them ...

Re: problems with pitch in live
I'm facing the same problem, I've got pitchbend going on in the clips, so not in the arrangement, and Yes I duplicate those clips over time, but it is as if Ableton doesn't reset after the last clip with pitchbend on it has ended and the next clip without pitchbend is playing. So therefore my synths will be out of tune, quite sure it's a bug as I've checked everything, very annoying !

This is exactly what's happening. If a clip ends with non-zero pitch bend automation info, the track retains that level of bend until it encounters PB automation again. I've found it seems to happen if you have a note bent in a clip and then shorten the clip so that the last PB breakpoints are cut off.it is as if Ableton doesn't reset after the last clip with pitchbend on it has ended and the next clip without pitchbend is playing
The solution I've found is to add a single breakpoint of value 0 right at the beginning and/or end of MIDI clips to in effect reset the PB to normal.

Re: problems with pitch in live
Having the same issue. Sometimes pitch bend automations continue even in clips that doesn't have any automations, and other times it will ignore the automation completely...
Doesn't seem to be a work around...?

the workaround is in the post above yours.LakesideWiseman wrote:Having the same issue. Sometimes pitch bend automations continue even in clips that doesn't have any automations, and other times it will completely ignore the automation completely...

essentially you need to make any clip that has pitchbend info in it end with a pitchbend=0, otherwise any clips following will assume that you are holding the pb at whatever level it was left at.
