I am starting this thread, to get input and help from all other LIVE experts out there.
Here is my dilemma.
All over the forums on the subject of DJ'ing with LIVE, I see help and examples of how to put a drum track, and kick track, put some drum loops somewhere and so on...But as a DJ, whne I am performing, I play with scenes, and each track clips of a scene contains more then a timy drum loop, or a kick loop. By the time I arrive at a DJ gig, most of my tracks are already, done, mastered and all that.
On my DJ set, I usually disect a complete track into different portions, for effects. This is where I could use some help.
This is what I want to do.
While a track is playing (say, a complete song), I want to drop and effect like "around the head panning", or a drum roll, on a particular section of the track.
The problem I've seen is that if I send the signal to a return track, I never get the desired result. But I get a good effect, if the racks are on the track itself, as an insert.
But since I am doing this live, I do not know when I want to have that effect. So, I do not want to load a track with racks, sitting idle.
What I'd like to do, is change a scene, and on the new scene, put the clip on different track, that has the output sent to another track. This new track can have a dummy clip. So, say. the main clip is on track 1. When I change scene, the same clip is now playing on track 2. Track 2 has "Audio to" on Track 3. Track 3 has a dummy clip, with envelope automation.
I want to have the legato mode on the clip on Track 1, and on track 2 as I change scene.
LEGATO MODE is not working, when I change scene, and the same clip is on different tracks.
Can any one help please ?
Cheers,
Pinaki
