Piano Roll in Live only has 6 notes

Post by cglassey » Tue Apr 23, 2024 11:28 pm

I am using Ableton Live 12 Standard. When I play my midi keyboard, it sounds horrible. I thought I was going mad, but it looks like Ableton's piano roll is only allowing me to play musical notes from a non-standard western musical scale.

Here are the sequential notes Ableton will let me play using the built in piano roll starting at C5.
-C5
-D5
-E koron5 (???)
-F5
-G5
-A5
-C6

where are the rest of my notes? why can I only play this very strange scale? where are the sharps/flats? where is the 'B5' note? Something strange is going on, and I dont know why the built in piano roll isnt letting me play the 12-note chromatic scale.

Has anyone encountered this before?

THANKS!!

Sounds like you loaded a tuning, just delete it in the Tuning panel if you don't like it.
