Is this color scheme included in Live already or is it a custom thing? I want it!

Anyways...

Hi

Here are just some pics of our LIVE setup, but there's not that much more stuff in the studio, just add adam H1 monitors, a big lcd screen and a roland juno 2 alpha...


here is our last VOLT live setup:

we are a duo, so each one has its monotron, its DSI synth, its code or uc33controller, and its launchpad... all with only one laptop so there is no synchronisation problem :D

cheers

That's cool. I like your set up. A tetra and a mopho too.

thanks,

our setup is quite OK now, just we'd like to replace the crappy uc33 with another livid Code, but code is expensive and I already have to send back my unit that is buggy and one of the former units that has no bootloader inside, so I can't upgrade the firmware...

but apart from that, we're really happy of this fully functional live setup

We may ditch the mopho KB out of the setup, as Idon't play the keys live, just turning the cutoff pot sometimes... so we may sample all of its sounds and let it rest in the "studio". We keep the tetra on the road, because there's still some live tweaks to be done... but we generally get some pain in the ass to get the right programs at the right moment, our clip's midi program changes sometimes work, sometimes don't... it's often confusing when playing live... "what's that sound?? ... wait , it's the tetra!! WTF??? put it down... shit..."

I don't think these DSI are that great for live duties... but what for a huge sound!!

cheers

even the 'crappy' uc-33 works finer than expensive Livid? Then how can we describe Livid?

I was planning to use dummy clips to send program change data to the mopho for live sound switching.... guess its not that much of an option then

Well, it's a bit more difficult for me to say "crappy livid code" as I paid around 450€ for it, but I guess I may have thought it once or twice since I got mine... This unit is one of the first batch (but I bought it november 2011 at Thomann's), and I could say that is crap and if you go for a livid hardware, make sure you get the last production units..

But the uc33 doesn't works better, we got some dead pots and last time we played we had to re-do the uc33 assignations, don't know why... perhap's does it change presets... a friend lent it to us so we didn't take that much time to get into its preset handling and documentation :lol:

We already had that discussion, it's not bitwig. It's some funky ableton skin that no one else seems to have

Here's my Ableton LIVE skin.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1399581/theGREY.ask

The waveforms are 2 different Ms Pinky decks with floating windows, but the topmost one is rbrt23's Superlooper, yet I modified the GUI. I record loops into superlooper and play them back on Ms Pinky vinyl. The other device is Reaktor's Vectory, and the OTHER device is a special new device I have been trying to make that has 4 different LFO's. These can be spontaneously assigned to blue handed parameters by holding a button (i.e. LFO1, 2, 3, 4, or OFF.) and twisting the corresponding knob.
3 things bitwig can not do.
strange that people give bitwig so much credit over looks.

Bitwig copied Live. There is no 'Bitwig' characteristic.
