Question about ableton to sonar or cubase.

Post by ashadowman » Tue Apr 01, 2008 5:49 pm

Hey everyone,

Just a quick question: for a collaboration with a friend, I'm using Ableton and he uses Sonar and Cubase, can he import a file that I would send to him?

Many Thanks in Advance,

If it's just a sample file. But Cubase won't be able to read an .als file.

What would be intersting to play around with though is the Sync button in the MIDI/Sync preferences. A couple weeks ago me and my buddy hooked up our MacBooks via USB and used the Sync feature to keep the tempo and the Quantization on the mark. We were DJing and beatmatching was gravy.

Sure. Just make sure you render your audio file (s) as .wavs (PC) (or .aiffs for mac).

What cannot be imported is an Ableton Live .als project file, only the rendered audio tracks/samples etc.
