1.1 DEMO fab! - 4 things still needed so far as I see.

[Ybarrymore]

I may have missed something. No.1 here (below) MAY be possible. I WOULD BUY THIS PROGRAM AS SOON AS I HAVE THE MONEY. "BUY!this program eVeryone, you KNOW you want to!" Should be a bit cheaper I think, a wee bit! I will look for a deal on the web.

1) when live input is set I would like to LOCK the
track as it is easy to double click the recording SLOT BUTTON part and have it take over the track. THIS may be possible I will investigate further.

2) As my solution, and as an additional comment to No.01 above. WHEN I record a BIT into a SLOT BOTTON from the LIVE IN track playing through, well, What I do is AS it is STILL recording (AND I can hear the LIVE IN track playing obvoiusly) I DRAG the recorded part SLOT BUTTON to another TRACK and that overcomes the possibility of double clicking by mistake and KILLING the LIVE IN track and making the new LOOP OVERTAKE the whole playback.

WHAT HAVE I MISSED???

3) THE MUST be a way to set the newly recorded sample up to NOT LOOP AND NOT TRIGGER...the ideal setting for me Is ..GATE and NO LOOP.... CAN THIS be done? the default of trigger and loop is a hassle!

4) It would appear that LIVE 1.1 is one of those NOT QUITE ASIO BRILLIANT YET programs. I can only get my RME Hammerfall to REALLY work in the wireup I need to have (see further) by useing MME/DX which is poopoo for most things especially keeping LIVE IN mode without glitches when recording parts on the fly.

I'm NOT saying it's not a wee bit of RME driver weirdness. BUT I have seen this before with other programs and it's improved with updates.

With my sound source MP3 player using coaxial digital out of SW1000 going DIRECTLY INTO coaxial in on full hammerfall (it has 3 optical 8 channel inputs and on coax pair as channels 25-26 in ASIO list-confusing/logic and correct)....

Anyways, a million attempts at different ideas and Nada, no luck. As I said I'm no stranger to this one. HOWEVER the clue here is that the RME ASIO driver control panel WAS saving SPdif sync AND SPdif in. NOT ADAT in, which is USUALLY the symptom of the problem. ADAT mean 8 channel optical mode and NO SPdif coaxial.

ANYWAYS... I have a dig96 2 track coaxial RME card and in the same config it breaks up a lot.

I know I know.. I could probably get it working..
Remember I am going FROM the SW1000 coax OUT (has no coax in-but the new win2k driver seem great)

STRAIGHT into the single coax in of the RME hammerfall.

I need the fastest most powerful ASIO device as no-one wants a glitch... LIVE


RULES..... I LOVE IT..

hey, I'm gonna try the Digi96 coax out into the Hammerfall in now... May have done so... but hey,, I don't want to be a genius!!!!

best to ALL....

help?

Suggestions?

Can't buy till I have cash at end of month AND I get the last prob. sorted!!!!


Does that make sense???

problems with asio2 driver for your rme hammerfall you say... My older rme96/8 card with it's latest driver ran at 5,8ms latency together with rewired Reason without problems on my athlon XP1500+ with 256 mb sdram. that test was done with the first release version of Live.
It was quite stable even when I altered tempo during playback under that test too !

Running Live ASIO 3ms + 1ms here solid as a rock using a Mixtreme hooked to a Tascam TM-D1000 digi-mixer in XP.

Great bit of software. Thx

I left a posting a while back "4 things etc.."
THE MAIN problem I had before the Ableton demo "left the party" was: [LOVE some comments on this]

I have a hammerfall and an SW1000 in my PC the hammerfalls ADAT out's go to my MAC and I can't use them with my SW1000 as it's ONLY got coax digital out.. SO...

What I WANT to do is:

1) run my MP3 player OUT of the SW1000 coax INTO the HAMMERFALL coax input [inputs 25-26 in ASIO list] ALETON's LIVE would be using the Hammerfall card in ASIO mode..which is a problem...

2) I would put LIVE in Live input mode on a track channel which would allow me to HEAR the MP3 playing thru ableon's Live program.

3) THEN I could GRAB bit's of audio and use them WHILE the MP3 player continues Uninterupted...!!

4) UNINTERUPTED and sounding great is ONLY going to happen in ASIO mode as DX mode is crappy for latency, dropouts etc.

PROBLEM... I have not been ABLE (pun intended) to get LIVE to WORK with the COAX inputs [25-26] on the HAMMERFALL. If I recall correctly it shows the levels (not sure) but I hear nothing..

YES I've seen this before too... it has something to do with the HAMMERFALL being in ADAT mode... BUT even when the RME control panel appears to be syncing to the coax STEREO input and is in "somewhat" of a 2 track mode there in no joy hearing the LIVE output...

IS that clearly said....

I have a lot of hours spent NOT assuming anything over the years with tech probs...

I think this is to do with? maybe hammerfall really... Also it's the way the software ASIO inplimentation is and how clever and flexible it is etc...??yes?? ideas??

You would think this would work... try it...
2 soundcards ...one with full adat mode AND a coax input..
TRY to get the coax input to work with ABLETON's LIVE program in ASIO mode...

Works fine in DX mode....

HELP?

best wishes to ALL

It's just a jump to the left
And then a step to the right
With your hands on your hips
You bring your knees in tight
But it's the pelvic thrust that really drives you insane,
Let's do the Time Warp again!

Just had a horrible flash of a school disco circa 1991.....

[beats me]

So have these issues been fixed in version 6?
