gleeman, where did you get your nick?
it's faintly familiar... from a movie?

i just liked the way it sounded... no movies, old synths or epic metal songs

CAPABILITY TO RECORD PARAMETER AUTOMATIONS WITHIN A CLIP IN SESSION VIEW!!!!!!!!

yeah, thats a big one ... would make writing so much more efficent ..

tempo set by first recorded loop!

Pleaseeeeeeeeeee.

I think Live could really benefit from having the option of behaving like a realtime looper (as in the gibson echoplex etc)

*gets on both knees*

pretty, pretty, pleaseeeeeee.

Nice

These are mostly dj oriented:

. analysis file with multiple clips support (that's a MUST for djing)
. crossfader curve adjustment
. indepent tempo and transport for separate tracks
. tempo & transport control from timecoded vinyl for separate tracks
. video tracks (not only playback, I would love some video synthesis going on in Live!)
. midi signal send for clip launch button status led (for lighting on status leds on a controller)... really don't know if this is already possible cause I didn't made my controller yet
. native dual display support
. a same midi control (or key) shared for multiples parameters with scripting for making each parameter react different to the same control (reverse, log or lineal response...)
. dB numbers in audio meters
. loop start point different from clip start point
. loop offset scripting (or follow action)
. loop offset external control
. on/off switch and presets for clip envelopes
. "playing speed" or "reverse clip" envelope
. a simple chronometer with elapsed / remaining (in case we specify a duration for our gig)
. 64-bit support
. multitrack rendering
. coffee cup holder

Cheers,

i agree with most suggestions.

i have two things to add:

1) Instant looping dj style (ala traktor loop in/out)

2) ADC

I haven't read through the entire thread but it looks like there are a lot of good suggestions here. Here is one I didn't notice yet:

A Midi random plugin that affects time rather than pitch. It could actually be 2 separate plugins: one that generates random Midi notes with settings for note length, probability, density, etc. and another plugin that does a random shift to the existing Midi notes in the clip. It would have similar settings and would be able to shift notes forward and back in time based on a grid (16th note, 32nd note, etc) or by even smaller increments to add "slop" to a quantized midi clip.

Theoretically then you could add the Random note and random pitch plugins to a Midi track and get a stream of random notes without having any midi data in the clip.

And here's another vote for recording automation into clip envelopes.

My wishes are basic, in order of importance, all essential:


1. PDC
2. Proper track solo (so that a bus when solo'd also plays those channels routed into it, and a channel when solo'd also plays the bus it is routed to)
3. Proper groove quantize (plus better midi editing?)

would be nice:

Auto Note preview in MIDI editor.
Better file browsing
Drag and drop from Live to Battery (is this possible???)

Yep, I have Numerology and it's pretty nice but I don't really enjoy using multiple applications. What's so difficult about a simple random note plugin to add to the current random pitch plugin?
