Using Audio Realism products with Ableton Live 7.0.14
Some people hate questions like this. They call it lazy. I think it wise to ask from the experts & then implement that knowledge in my own unique way!
After some searching, I recently purchased two products by Audio Realism . . . ABL Pro & ADM! Now that I have what I consider to be superb products, I need some direction to any on-line information that will be specific to working with these two products in an Ableton Live 7.0.14 environment. Triggering patterns, rendering, recording & creating patterns etc . . . etc . . . Not as easy as it sounds . . .
Many thanks for any help you may be able to provide. This is my first post (ever), so hopfully I've got it right, or nearly right, or whatever

I go ahead and tell you what most will think... this is definately the wrong place to ask, you'll be better off asking this in the audiorealism forum as this is a question about the plugs and not the host.

Thank You R.A.W - We're off to a good start!
I had thought of writing to the A.R. (Audio Realism) Forum earlier, however . . . after connecting . . . I am faced with the following brick wall . . .
phpBB : Critical Error
Could not open template config file
DEBUG MODE
Line : 503
File : functions.php
It's been like that all day from where I'm sitting. Not very pleasant old chap!
If anybody else has anything they would they would like to add/share, then I am all ears

Dear NOISE :)
Yeah, I tried that and same (error) story as yesterday. I've written to Audio Realism to notify them but have not received a reply as of yet! I've also Deleted My Browsing History as old page information which is stored locally on a PC for 'quicker access' can also cause problems. No joy!
Last night I wrote to Groove Monkey looking for ADM MIDI Files. I reckon that's one the way to go. To use the Drum Plug in a similar way to how EZ Drummer operates.
I appreciate what R.A.W. had suggested earlier about confining my quest to the Audio Realism site but that doesn't make complete sense to me. There's a good chance that any Ableton user, who also uses A.R. products, will be looking at both Forums (Ableton & A.R.)!
Oh Yeah! I printed out the manual as well

I don't have the abl pro, but die abl2 has a typical 303 style step sequencer, you have the step you're on listed in the led display on the right.
Select the note you want, click the "time/mode" button ("gate" on abl pro judging by the screenshot) to turn that step on & click "next"...
for the adm you select the drum you want to control (bass drum, snare, etc.) and select the steps from the buttons below (16 buttons=1bar)
Check that the mode switch is set to ptn. Then create a clip in Live and draw 1 note thats the length of your pattern (ie 1 bar).
The note that you draw then selects the pattern. C-2 (the lowest note) is pattern 000, C0 is pattern 24, C3 is pat 60 etc.
Place the clip in your song and your done

Thanks Dexes
12:32 Thanks Dexes. This looks very informative. I'll check it all out just as soon as I have breakfast
In the meantime, this reply from Groove Monkey may be of interest to other users . . .
Hello XXXXXX,
We don't have patterns for ADM, sorry. We sell loops mapped per the GM
(General MIDI) standard but it looks like ADM is a bit different.
Please contact me if you have any additional questions about our loops.
Thanks!
