Check out the Multimix series from Alesis. http://www.alesis.com/ They have USB2.0 and firewire versions. Both lines come in 8, 12, & 16 channel flavors. I use the Multimix Firewire 16 channel and I love it. I am using it with my G4 Powerbook and it runs great. It works the way you think a mixer...

I am glad Ableton is producing a product that makes them money. That money allows them to create a better product. I learned my lesson at Live 2. I held out for as long as I could before going to 3. I felt that I did not tap out the feature set in Live 2. Finally when it was time to move to 3, they ...

Novation's Automap and Live Racks

Hello, I am strongly considering a Remote SL. I have seen one in action just for a moment. I am impressed with the automap feature on single Live plug-ins. How does automap work with Live's racks were several plug-ins may be in use? How would it handle duplicate plug-ins in a rack e.g. two autofilte...

guitar tones

I use the PodXT direct into live and I really like the sound. I am not a guitar player but I do record a lot of guitar (Rock/Indie/Metal) and everyone that I work with seems to like it as well (sound & work flow). Sorry to jack the thread but I have not seen any opinions on Izotope's Trash plug-...

My Live 4 update was done online. I did the boxed version. After two weeks of no-show I contacted Ableton customer service. I sent an email detailing my problem and ask how much longer I would have to wait. Within hours I got a reply email with an very nice apology and status update. I essentially g...

Hello, I still get a lot of work done with the T-racks plugs from IK multimedia. I would not say they sound "tube" but T-Racks does warm up your sound and gives a nice presence. I just got the demo of Ozone last weekend and it sounds great so far. Ozone has a different sound than T-Racks. ...

I am working with a group that is doing a video game sound track. For the most part, it is Metal/Rock. Live has been perfect for this application. If one of the players is trying to nail a solo and can not quite "get it", I drop the BPM by 10 or so and they can play right along. In fact s...

Emulator samplers

Does anyone on the Forum have any experience with the EOS link on E-Mu Emulator samplers? I am considering purchasing a 2nd hand E4 and I am poor luck in getting info on the EOS link. The manuals at the E-Mu site mention EOS but don't go into technical detail. EOS Link seems to be pitched as a remot...

For those of you using the X station with Live: Does it work the way it seems. I use a K Station right now. I like the sounds. I use the mic input to pipe audio into Live and I also use the K Station sound engine to generate sounds. The X Station looks perfect for what I am wanting in a(n) midi cont...
