Problem.. Ableton, Spectrasonics or M-Audio

Post by SIXTO » Tue Jun 07, 2005 3:24 pm

I recently moved so therefore I had to unplug everything and then hook it up again... Now for some reason.. When I open a saved track with MIDI (in this case Stylus or Atmosphere) it wont play, nor can I tweak it, nor can I use the Modulation and Pitch wheel.... So I did a test.. I opened up a new track, put Stylus in, ( midi switch is on) it still wont play but all the beats are laid out sperately on my keyboard... Before this all happened, I was able to put in a stylus kit or a atmosphere kit and play it, tweak it, and everything while it was playing steadily.....

Is there something I am overlooking.... this is very frustrating and depressing, cause I have projects do and cant finish none of them....

Thanks in advance for your help

Can you get ANY MIDI instruments to work?

yes I can get all of them to work but not 100%... If I load a stylus kit and hit the launch button in ableton it wont play.. But it will play within Stylus... Now if I load a stylus kit in LIve, with the MIDI button off it will play... But I cant tweak it through my keyboard... I use to load a kit with MIDI on, launch it in Live and tweak it at the same time... Now I cant... I have to be overlooking something...

Like I said before, the earlier projects that I use to do this with, doesnt play at all now(stylus)

maybe it might be my MIDI controller.. Ill try to uninstall it and reinstall it...

Ah okay. Does the MIDI keyboard/controller work at all within Live? Maybe it has become deselected in the MIDI preferences? This has happened to me if I have run Live without turning on the MIDI devices - it seems to remove all the MIDI In/Out settings! Grrrr.

Driver

Sounds like your driver for your controller has lost it. Try re-establishing your USB(?) connection. If that does not work try re-installing your driver software EXACTLY as directed.

If all of this does not work try saving the opened project under a different name. Close an re-open live.
