Hi there i am using abelton 5 . My problem is when i use rewire with reason when i render to disk the kick drum wich is in reason seems to sound funny once song is exported, as it is doubled up and paned a bit

i have tryed changing kick lowering volume compresion checked its not coming through anywere twice , it sounds fine as a set playing it as i am working on it but as soon as i export it as a wav ,,IE reder to disk it starts going all funny again . if i record the audio ,as in the kick from reason so it becomes a wav form in abelton, rather than a sound coming via rewire it exports fine and there is n no problem , but if the kick is comin via rewire the back to square one and it all bouncy and double sounding once exported, but fine till then ,


the stuff from reason also seem to come more from the left than the right when exported .

strange.. have you tryed reinstalling both progs? really strange... cant suggest anything better at the moment....

have you exported the pattern to the sequencer and forgotten to disable the pattern in redrum? this will cause all manner of wierd sounds and flamming. i know, i've done it.....

NO I DEFINATLY HAVE NOTHING DOUBLING SEQUENCE WISE, THE DRUMS ARE DRAWN IN ON THE REDRUM SEQUENCER PAGE THE STRANG THING IS IT SOUNDS FINE TILL YOU EXPORT IT THEN YOU HEAR THE SORT OF DUBLING ,

try this and see what happens:

when i import stuff in from reason, i always have a 'dump' channel that the file is going to go to. like for example, lets say i have redrum playing a drum kit consisting of kick, snare, and an open hi hat. each gets their own individual channel in live. then ill record them to their individual channels in live and switch off the input <usually changing it from in to auto>. while this has been going on ill generally have all the individual drum inputs in live sending their audio outputs to a mixdown channel. when i get the loop right, i record it all in the mixdown channel.

if this isnt what youre doing and youre using lives render feature for individual loops, uh, stop it. thats a bit excessive at this point. now if you think youre going to need to export these files into another live project, then by all means render em. what im saying tho is dont try to do a render from a rewire connection. instead just record the files into clips and then render later.

Cheers mate , that does work i already started doing that but it was becomin a pain it the ars recording it them wanting to change it later , but it does work if i record it in , i just thought there might be somthing thing silly going on that would save me having to record and i could just render straight from track with rewire and reason . Surely it should work redering with rewire up and runing or it would tell you somewere


But thanx very much for the reply.

Cheers

did you read the thread about Rewire latency when a VSTi is inserted on one track ?
