live 8: new midi enhancements?
live 8: new midi enhancements?
Theres very little info on this.
most of you dont care much , but i hope there is much improved.
i really hope you can merge 2 midi clips in one, without 'erasing' the other.

+1. That's something that I loved about Logic, and hope that it's implemented in the L8 update. It'll save so much time for combining MIDI parts to dump onto the MPC...bartvd wrote:Theres very little info on this.

Group several midi tracks. The scenes will show up more or less like one "clip", but you can open it up and there'll be multiples inside.bartvd wrote:yeah, but i dont want just copy paste.. i want them stacked on top of each other, still beeing able to hear both.
this way i can edit it easier later on.

One thing I'd like to see (maybe it's already there but I'm missing it) Is the ability to Edit midi in the Arrange view, direct in the time line. And not the only in the clip view. It would be a real timesaver.. Maybe someone can 'enlighten' me on this one..

High time we got a proper copy/paste function! Has anyone managed to find
any info on how the clip view looks with multiple clips selected? Is it finally
also possible to transpose multiple clips? Oh, please, say it's so! That's the
last piece of the MIDI puzzle, as far as I'm concerned (now that we've got
proper pasting and simple +/- 12 semitones transposition).

Is that perchance the answer?Machinate wrote:Group several midi tracks. The scenes will show up more or less like one "clip", but you can open it up and there'll be multiples inside.

I dont know if you are asking about this but i´d like to see a true overwrite MIDI feature on the Arrangement view, where you record over the same previous clip, not create another one on top of the existing (which IMO is not quite an "overwrite" thing. You always end up having to consolidate after the recording and sometimes you lose the beginning of the notes, or some notes length change due to the end of the new MIDI clip created, etc.
Anybody knows if this has been fixed on 8?

Agreed. It's always been sort of counter intuitive having to copy a clip back toeddu wrote:I dont know if you are asking about this but i´d like to see a true overwrite MIDI feature on the Arrangement view, where you record over the same previous clip, not create another one on top of the existing (which IMO is not quite an "overwrite" thing.

session just to record on top of the same clip.
If the arrangement is looping, everything you record between the loop markers will be in one single clip. So instead of erasing a previous recording, you just get a long clip containing every note you played for every pass. The same goes with audio clips too. This is already the case in earlier versions of Live.eddu wrote:I dont know if you are asking about this but i´d like to see a true overwrite MIDI feature on the Arrangement view, where you record over the same previous clip, not create another one on top of the existing (which IMO is not quite an "overwrite" thing.

when you group the miditracks. will you hear them all at once? that would be what i want.
and is this already in version 7 or is this new in live 8?

Well, as you know you can easily feed several midi tracks into one instrument, as you can in Live7.
What's different here is that when folded, the entire row of midi sequences feeding into your midi instrument can be triggered as one, sort of a pseudo-scene, if you will.
I hope this makes sense.
