Brilliant--thanks.

Just bought the L9 Suite upgrade, and am now making my first foray into Max for Live. I don't seem to have any content for Max plugins--no presets, nothing. The rest of the suite content seems to be there...

1) Are there supposed to be any?

2) Where do I get them?

if you haven't messed with FLStudio's peak controller, i encourage you to check it out. basically, it is an envelope follower with an LFO that can map to any device's parameters. so, you put envelope follower on a drum track and map the volume envelope of the drums to the filter freq of a synth. now...

man, that thing is making my palms sweat!

Oooh, Ableton. You're THIS close to hitting the motherlode with the rack fx. Messing with an idea this afternoon, I was looking for a way to automate the decay time of a reverb with an lfo. I dropped the 'verb into an audio effect rack and started trying to map the decay to a macro knob. Of course, ...

The power buttons on fx lost their contrast from L4 to L5--the new buttons go from green to grey when turned off. This is incredibly hard to see at a glance relative to the old green to black contrast. Also, in the browser, live sets used to be black and green--now just black and grey. Once again, h...

i'm having the same problem--losing undo globally. when i go to the pulldown menu under edit/undo i get the option to "undo change '0'." oddly, the problem is intermittent--changing other values (arbitrary values at that--there appears to be no consistency in which changes cause the proble...

There doesn't seem to be a parameter to adjust the envelope for Nitro's "mix" knob in Live. Can anyone confirm?

Well it does to an extent. The Step Sequencer, allthough limited is now slavable since 0.6501.1 (latest). i wouldn't qualify step sequencing as comparable to a piano roll + event editor such as fruity. then again, plenty of people use trackers too. As a replacement you can use various VST-based MID...

i have found the FLstudio rewire beta to be rather buggy--fruity freezes when closing, and the lack of transport control from fl is a drag. the dev team at fruity claim they are working on this, but presently the explanation is that fl is effectively running as a "plugin" during rewire, he...

i am having problems with every track containing a smartelectronix plugin. live freezes, occasionally shutting down of its own accord, generally requiring me to restart.

bah. that was me. thought i was logged in.

here's an idea: tracktion does a really nice job with MIDI already. if it ran as a rewire slave instead of just master, live would have a sweet, simple solution for MIDI support. i've talked a bit with julian, tracktion's developer, about incorporating this feature, but he doesn't see it as essentia...

Woohoo! I can't wait!

So, uh...do you think you'll get around to that VCR clock thing in a future release? I could really use some help here...

...on how to make my favorite program even better. I'm sure these have been posted a thousand times, but I find that I don't need to spend a lot of time reading the wishlist. - "Copy Track" function to duplicate all track settings including effects. This would be a massive time saver. - Bu...
