Re: Live 9 Import Akai Sample Discs With New Browser? Dropped?

In Live 8 I used to pop the disc in my drive and go into the workspace and it will open right up so I can import everything off the disc and it would be ready for sampler... For windows you get this Windows cannot access this disc. The disc might be corrupt. Make sure the disc uses a format that wi...

Re: Dropbox syncing - just my "User Library", or Packs too...?

If you set it up correctly, it works perfectly. When I first tried, I realised I had individual .ALS files and no project folders; with all my samples somewhere deep in a referenced folder in my hard drive. I had to Save and Collect (being careful not to select any factory sounds) my entire way thr...

Re: Dropbox syncing - just my "User Library", or Packs too...?

Question for me, is will Ableton 9 change, restrict, or open up new opportunities in any way? I remember I tried it a while ago with 8, I had issues at the time using the same library on two machines. Maybe it was something to do with the audio files that were referenced in clips and sampler preset...

Re: Dropbox syncing - just my "User Library", or Packs too...?

Cheers for the reply. I've go enough space on dropbox to add the packs... I'm just not sure I can be ar$ed with the huge disruption to internet access at home whilst it uploads over the course of the next few weeks... Think I might just sync my 'User Library' for now. Any idea whether it's possible...

Re: Dropbox syncing - just my "User Library", or Packs too...?

Hi, I'm pretty new to Live - I bought live 8 Suite during the recent offer for 25% off with free upgrade to Live 9 - so beyond about about 5 or 6 small projects I've not done much with it to date. I've just downloaded Live 9 and will be installing on my desktop and my laptop for when I'm working aw...

Re: Alot of plugin sales-fabfilter won't be competing

Since I am no pro at mixing and EQ, that new eq in Live 9 better have a nice spectrum analyzer! The fabfilter one looks really intuitive for a noob at mixing... Damn I only have a couple days to decide!!!! 8O It's the same spectrum analyzer as the one in 8 more or less, but added to the EQ. You can...

Re: Alot of plugin sales-fabfilter won't be competing

I have to agree, I was VERY impressed with the new Live 9 EQ and comps, they sound really nice. so do you think they (comp and eq) compete with high quality plugins, like fab or ozone, or waves? I am on the fence , since I have not heard Live 9 new plugins yet..i have to take this forums advice on ...

I'm beta testing Live 9 now. You may want to wait to try the updated EQ with 9 if you plan on updating.

Re: How to make that off-beat chord-stab-thing in tech house

At some point you're going to need the main sample or chord progression in your track, right? Try taking a snippet of that and putting in the offbeat. Just a guess, but it seems like that's what they did in Tradelove track. If you listen at around 1:15 you can hear the full sample, but with a highpa...

Re: Combine sliced drum racks?

I was searching for how to do this, but I figured it out and thought I'd update this thread. Select all and copy the slices from the chain view and then paste in the other drum rack chain view. But ...you have to make sure the slices are not on the same keys prior to copy/pasting them, or it will ju...

Re: Producers blues

I'm 45. I've been thru this time and time again. How do I solve it ? Colaboration is the key. Try and find someone who you can bounce your ideas off, fix deadline with..you'll be up and running. Then what will happen next is the craving to do something solo again, because collaboration has it's dra...

Re: Producers blues

OP - Take if from an older guy..this isn't so much about music about having to face reality. Almost everyone in their early twenties has some dream, whether it's music, sports, acting, etc and 99% have to face the possibility that maybe they're not going to be able to live out this dream.

Re: opening a suite project with non-suite version?

FYI, from Ableton support: "Yes, you should be able to open projects created in Suite 8 that only use functions available in Live 8. The important thing to note is that you both need to be using the same version of Live. For example you both need to use Live 8.3, or 8.2.22. Please make sure you...
