i cant really get sidechaining nailed in ableton live; working with sends etc introduces big delays that throw it out of wack. strange

scala is the program i always hear about regarding microtonality, here's the link

plenty of VSTs can import scala files

is there any way to send the same midi information to a VST, as well as an audio effect (that obviously can recieve midi trigger info) that's on another channel (ie a midi-controlled gate effect) ? so that say, every time a synth plays a note, the midi gate on another channel (say, a return track) i...

yah, not very versatile though i have never found a good sidechain compressor that works well with live, so i use ktrancer.dll , a free plugin that "ducks" when you send it a midi note i must say i pretty much prefer doing it this way to traditional sidechaining (ie using audio as a trigger)

i bought a dell xps (12") a couple of weeks ago, i <3 it!

admittedly i havent played live with it .. yet..

oh my god how did i not know about that

excellent stuff thanks a bunch

is there any good way to do this other than having to put them inline with a scene? say nothing is playing, but you want to start the kick and a hihat going.. err.. is there anyway to do that? like if you could select multiple clips and hit PLAY for all of them.. maybe this is a retarded question, i...

live SUCKS for audio when compared with protools. if you want to crossfade you need to use 2 tracks and manually do it... gay

sweet cheers for your help, my padkontrol is now more than just a pretty toy

some great vids there! ok : now i cant seem to get access to the metronome, and the global quantize as the guy has - i checked the mackie control midi map list but those notes do not work... also i noticed some differences between that list and what you've used in the initial post (eg according to t...

The complete list is here: http://members.aol.com/mhigrules/MCMap.htm Impulse maps to C3-C4. It's in the manual. If you want to have more than 8 pads, you can create a rack. Search the forum for this. ah right, i did see that guide before , and thought it wasnt what i was after, but after closer in...

And here's a good scene for those of you who like to load up Impulse and bang away, but control clips without the mouse and keyboard. Again, works with both mK and pK. Same as the bank in my first post, except that you keep the Transport controls to a bare minimum, and use 8 pads for Impulse [Undo]...

GREAT THREAD!
