Easter Eggs?

Post by kabuki » Mon Dec 03, 2007 9:08 pm

So I purchased L7 (for the grouped soloing).

I never touched the beta (couldn't care enough to bother).

I was hoping the abs would slip in some unannounced yet asked-for features like color-variable warp markers and cue points, OSC support or any number of the other things.

Has anyone found any easter eggs?

If you navigate through the invisible maze and use the bridge at the right spot, you can get to a secret room that says Robert Henke Was Here.

If you create 37 tracks and record vocals into the 5 clip down a video will pop up with an alternative ending the The Sopranos.

Dunno if this is an Easter Egg, but you can now annotate clips. Open up the info view to check it out.

What is "grouped soloing" anyway? There was a hidden "feature" that allowed you to record a clip with a preset length which would turn to playback at once after reaching the recorded length. Unfortunately that was marked a "bug" (or better to say: a future feature to be implemented) and thus removed before release. :( You can hate me now for having pointed Ableton to that feature in my tries to have it improved even. :roll:

Select "solo in place" and when you solo a channel, it will not mute the sends, so you can still hear the effect. It will mute the other channels and any audio that is being sent to the sends (including the shared ones). Good feature for DJs.

Hi,

That's a Live 6 thing. What's new in Live 7 is that if a track feeds another via its "audio to", soloing any of the two won't mute the other, regardless of the "solo in place" option.

Then, soloing a return track will allow you to hear the wet signal of that return track only, very much like on hardware mixing board.

Regards,

Yeah, but its in German.
It probably is a good soup, but I don't feel comfortable cooking to the sound of that demon.
Probably Alex with a nasty cold.
