Who here only uses Ableton Live as their main sequencer to produce/final product? do you like your work flow(ideas)?


I was trying to find a thread similar but couldn't find it.
Ableton Live 6/Cubase SX3 and lots of samples.

I love live for creating and playing out, but for my production once Im past the basica arrange stage, I would probably rather export into a more powerful DAW.

But TBH - most of my stufff tends to end up with alot of plugins, complex audio routing etcs wich make it near impossible to export it, so I tend to stick with until a final mix, or sometimes a small set of final stems which I then work on in Cubase 4, or chuck over the wall to a better mix engineer to work on :)
Nothing to see here - move along!

raises hand.

work flow is session view to hash out ideas, to play with, session view for gluing and polishing.

its my main sequencer.

i really hate this 128 parameter restriction and sometimes would like to have a better audio editor, but beside this 128 thing i am happy.

a yes, group folder in arrangement view would be good.

just live for me. i make a lot of stuff in other programs first (reaktor, max/msp, bidule) but it all ends up in live at the end.

Live and only Live since L4.
Ableton’s engineers are hard
at work developing code that will allow our software to predict the future, but we don’t
anticipate having this available until at least the next major release.

I love Arrange view quite dearly. No need for anything else (well, real synths, of course)

I use live quite often for complete production since live 6.

I have always max/msp manipulating the midi data ( like for assigning filter cutoff to velocity ).

I like the live workflow, pretty efficient for producing.

I also use renoise sometimes and protools when I'm working on image
