notes betwen tracks

Post by kay101011 » Fri Apr 02, 2004 10:29 pm

yumyum - as a guy that always used to be drunk or whatever 8O :D
when playing live - i've always have problems to remember which loop to start first, the filtersettings and the 909-pattern belonging to the track!
maybe u can help by giving me scenes for notes, where i can write betwen my tracks.
thank you

oh - it already helped me a lot, that i can remove the buttons i don't need - does anyone knows the problem - having silence for a whole bar??? :wink: thank you for that one!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe it would help you to be more organized with your tracks?

Try naming them drums, bass, percussion, synths, leads vocals...

then use the naming function to name your scenes intro, bridge chorus...

ok, i allready name the loops like that - but i never really remember how to program the 909 (i do it live) it would help to have a little hint like ... "next trak: filter channel1 closed, 8t closed HH with little reverb ... "

Have you read up anything on Microsoft One Note? I use it when I've got my laptop with me... great for jotting down notes/scales and stuff, then you can organize and file your notes however you need.

Well guess I'm fresh out of ideas... but yeah it'd sure be awful fancy to be able to do it right into live

writing in scenes

Post by Jbo » Thu Apr 08, 2004 7:03 pm

Do you mean this as a joke, or as reality? sorry, I can't tell


I write notes on my scene names sometimes.

I am just wanting to learn any thing I do not already use, thanks

yeah, i'm serious. Y'know where you can name your scenes? Well i write stuff like the tempo i use for the clips in that area and sometimes notes for FX on/off and crap like that.

very kindly, as in, see, I still have not caught on to scenes in very much detail, so I am quite grateful to you. I really am amazed with Live, this is typical of its use by me; I try to read the manual more, but I seldom am able to keep from enjoying the use of the software, a whole world of utility may await me to be found sooner instead of later, from your grace.

TSCHOWWW!
