How do I split kbd into zones for live performances???

Post by TrainwreckNick » Tue Nov 29, 2011 6:52 pm

HELP!! I am a performing musician and am trying to use live 8 for just that, performances. I need to split my (axiom pro61) keyboard into 4 or 5 zones, each with its own instrument. I then need to transpose it to correct pitch and tweak the sound as necessary. I am trying to use instruments from operator, analog, electric, essential instrument collection and plug-ins. Problem is I cant seem to do this with anything except sampler. Either I cant configure it for a specific zone only or I cant transpose it or both. Can anyone tell me how to set this up PLEASE.

Hey Kanuck, Many Thanks for the help!! You have no idea how much frustration you saved me. I was just missing that one step. I wasn't able to do the same with my plugins though. specifically minimogue AP. any ideas?

You also can have third-party Plug-Ins (vst/au/m4l) in an Instrument Rack.
