Hey folks, I am trying to convert my live set to run on the Push 3.
I use a lot of VST sample libraries that would of course not be able to run on Push3. My first attempt would probably be to bounce everything to stems and just play the audio. But I use a lot of MaxForLive generative sequencers that create the notes in realm time, so that it sounds natural and do not repeat.
The problem is when you bounce everything to stems you loose the improvised generative aspect of the song and it keeps repeating. I would rather convert my VST sample library to a bare bones simpler instrument that only samples one articulation of a VST sample library.
Do you guys know of an easy way to convert or automate the creation of a Ableton sampled instrument from a 3rd party VST library?

Re: Strategies for performing large projects on Push 3
Surely someone has wondered about this. You can not run VSTs on Push3, so how can I still create a generative set?
Is there an easy way to create a Live simpler instrument by sampling a VST?

Make a midi clip playing each midi note 0-127, spaced out enough to capture the full decay
Record the clip into a sample, make sure the sample length is the exact length of one note x128
Make a sampler instrument with 128 slices

Is there a software tool that can automate this process?

I'm not aware of one.
But once you have the sample recorded and at the proper length you can right click it to get to the sampler conversion. That part is quick and easy once you've found it.
And of course reuse the same midi clip to record each different synth patch.
