whats the advantage of sidechaining?

thnks
sidechaining is a feature many effects can have allowing elements of the effect to be modulated by the amplitude of a sound source.

most common use in electronic music is 'ducking' which is when the kick drum triggers a compressor on a bassline making the bass sound go quiet at the moments which the drumkick sound is audible.

Hey, thanks man.

mercyplease,

Please define what you mean by 'safe solo'. Theres some confusion and a bit of incorrect info in these post. If you tell me what you mean by this I may be able to offer some clarification.

Live six has none of this and theres a lot more but im waiting for the shit to die down before I post my concerns.
No Sidechain
No groove quantise
No Safe solo#No group solo
No grouping of tracks of any kind (Amazingly)

I would really love to talk with the programmers at Ableton. probably none of those hacks have made music in their life. If they had those features that have been requested thousands of times would have been in there.

I cant understand this company. They got shitloads of requests for the above.
Sidechain works in Live 5 afaik. check the little list of tips and tricks
You can have groups of tracks. Save them as .als files. And recall their routing in Live 6.
Live 6's routing can be so complex that safe solo doesn't make sense. (every effect has 3 audio outputs)
You can map one midi button to multiple solo knobs.

No groove quantize though. But there are midi stretch markers.
man your a fucking idiot. SAFE SOLO DOESNT MAKE SENSE.

When you have actually written and mixed a song then you can tell me something doesnt make sense. I know your just a dope smoking loser that sits there every day and night messing about with a couple of monoscape sound bytes. Composing and mixing is a completely different ball game but how would you know.

You have a dig at the useless groove quantise. Again this shows you are a souless belgian eurocrat who doesnt make music at all. Can you imagine R+_B without groove. You say we should use a warp marker to adjust the groove. Oh sure for random and creative killing moments Ill just start messing about with warp markers and will get unpredictable results and shitty sound. Thats great
Someone told me once before that The talentless have the loudest voices in the music industry. I didnt believe this for many years but he was right and this place is full of no hopers with large post counts. Fucks sake people if these guys were so good they would never have the time to poost on here so much. Its fucking obvious.

Hoffman, fuck of you amateur.

no need to be a cock-head mate. relax

dual screen would not be hard to implement at this stage I think... i'm probably wrong, but it's just a window open command on the arrange screen, then the os does the rest (remembers windows position etc)

That should be "you're" which is short for "you are".
Not "your" as in "your spelling is as bad as your manners".

ableton needs to remember window placement of vst's. I work with 3 moniters and having to reposition my sessions each time i open them is anoying.
