Ableton Forum

I am using Ableton and am now in need of help for live sets.
I am running Ableton with an APC40 controller, plus i have someone on a live Keyboard and a live vocalist and a live sax.
Can someone tell me the best way to go out live please. The sax is on its own, but we need to hook up the keyboard so its
working on the same midi clock to the production.
We have been using separate sound cards in the past and had the keyboard totally independent, but now our sets are getting
more complicated it would be much better to all be sinked up. Can someone help me please.
Thanks

This is always challenging to deal with. Even with more recent advances.

It looks like you've been using midi clock, so you know how frustratingly close things can be tonworking, yet being impossible to work with.

I personally am a big fan of Live's new 'Link' feature. If both computers have software that support Ableton Link, then they should be able to synchronize tempo via network. My personal experience is that this works best using a direct network cable connection. A lot of newer computers do not offer this. It can also work with wifi. My experience with wifi has been great sometimes and other times frustrating.

Before making any investments, I'd look into seeing if you can find a way to work your set using Link.

ok thanks yur2die4 i will look into it..
By the way we have been working totally independently so far, as in i play samples live, and the keyboard plays live via its
own sound card and we both plug into the main stage mixer,
but it would be cool to be all time linked up via Ableton on a safety tip..
But i will check out the 'Link' feature.. thanks
