Analog Step Sequencing in Live.

Step sequencing would be nice for the Namm Show release if Ableton is planning an upgrade realease this would be the best thing they could add to this great program. A midi step sequencer plug-in or hopefully they will fix the midi editor. I hope Ableton gets there head out of there ass soon with regard to this issue.

Step sequencing is my only gripe with this program. I've sent E-mail about this subject and many other have voiced there concerns as well but still we have no step sequencing in Live.

Live 5 is good but could be great if it had this one simple feature implemented ASAP. Hopefully this Namm will get a midi step sequencer plug-in for Live.

PS The software development team needs to jump on this issue ASAP. Thanks.

Have you checked out numerology? Pretty much the most bad-ass step sequencer I've ever used.

You can rewire it, or just clock sync & select it as a MIDI source.

Five 12 is nice but would it not be great to Five 12 sequencers as VST plug-ins so that way you could run them in Live as a VST.

I'm thinking one sequencer that I can use from the beginning to end of which would be Live if could just have the step sequencing built into Live. If fruity loops can do this why not Ableton.

Does anyone know if there are plans to make numerology avail on windows?

I sent an E-mail a while back to Ableton that they should now take Live to a whole new sequencing level. Five 12 would be the best place for the Ableton team to start researching analog step sequencing for the software world. They should learn from this program and make some adjustments soon. I'm thinking once Five 12 start to record audio like Live and host VST without having to route them Five might just run 360s around Ablation.

Step Sequencing in Live is a simple solution. [/b]

Does any one know any thing about the Future Retro Mobius analog step seq-er? I have been thinking about purchasing one but am not sure, any one have insight about this product?

I use this hardware sequencer with Live:

Its marvellous. It syncs to Live flawlessly and I tend to use it as a slave to Live.

Richie Hawtin has one I believe, although he's bound to use it differently to me.

The Mobius is quite limited compared to the p3 - the p3 will be as simple or as complex as you want. I'm hungering for one right now :-/

I use a Doepfer Schaltwerk to control Impulse... there never was a finer combo:

I have herd that the P3 is a hard seq-er to figure out from the guys at Analoghaven but I'm not sure why they would say that, if from what you are say that it is the bomb. Does the P3 have a major learning curve or is it pretty simple to use Sir? Thanks for all the insight guys.

Afaik then the p3 actually works pretty straightforward when you just hit play.

Of course, since it has many many features, then it's all going to be harder to work, but the basics would be the same, I think.
