did you know that clip view envelopes can loop?
do you know about the unlink button?

there's a whole freaking chapter on this in the Live 7 manual.

Are other DAWs capable of this type of automation?

I don't 'think' Reason is. What about logic pro and the handful of other ones.

Check out the MIDI LFO on this thread...http://www.ableton.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=100066. It does the job for most things.

Remains undone, and it will never , ever, been done, bacause, they wrote something wrong in the beggining and they would bassically need to rewrite everything to have lfo,'s

How can you not think of lfo's ? audio,midi,lfo's

is that true?

it better not be!!!!!!!!!!1

you can do it in reason really easy. its just a matter of drawing the automation in. i have been trying to do this in live with no joy.

i use massive can i draw in the lfo rate in for that.

BIG BIG BIG mistake on live's behalf if not

Reason has the Matrix device, where you can draw your own LFOs (in curve mode) and send the curve cv from out the back into the cv input of any other device. nice!

Hmmm...

Garyboozy, Shervington and others. If you wanna draw in the automation curves. Then Live can do this. You understand that part about the clip automation, right? Like Tone so clearly suggested...? So if that's a acceptable way of doing it in Reason - how is it not in Live?
