CLIPS WONT LAUNCH ON TIME!

Post by Dargelos » Tue Feb 02, 2010 8:33 pm

Ok now that i have the warping down im having trouble with launching clips, so im preparing a set for a dj gig, every time i launch the next song it goes in at the wrong time, sometimes it does work but its at random cause i launch it at the same time everytime 1 bar before and thats how i have it set on live, i thought it was because of latency but ive done some things to improve that within ableton but i guess that wasnt the problem, any suggestions?

thanx

Your warping might be set right, but also make sure your clip "Start" is set to 1.1.1. and that the 1.1.1 marker is on the very first downbeat that you want to use.

Also you have to make sure that the entirety of tracks are warped properly (spot checking through it)

Lastly, some tracks have weird start/stop times during breakdowns and stuff. Check to make sure that those start on the downbeat also ( *.1.1 ) or it will throw off your beats.

Also check your global/clip quantisation settings.
