I string believe still in 12 version they may fiz those things. Is the 2o version in a row they add tons of new things and small real daw fundamental improvement. If they keep focusing on randomized live performance only I'm one of the many producers who will consider migrate. I told this past year...

I'm new to Ableton (coming from Cakewalk, Cubase, etc.) And am right now in Live V12 (~13 years after this post) and this still seems to be an issue. Using the Arranger view to record MIDI is a big mess it seems, still?? When you record/overdub it creates a new clip and there doesn't seem to be any ...

Ah man... is this really a thing in Live? I recently switched over from Cakewalk (of 25+ years), this is super lame... So I need to actually dump all my main bus plugins to get rid of their latency? (eh hem, Ozone hhem) Wow, being able to truly disable a plugin without completely removing it is esse...

And/Or (as you said) just let us configure transport controls per controller device in Ableton, however not holding my breath here, takes Ableton forever to implement anything (from what I have seen), especially edge cases like these. The customization/controls need to be on one end or the other (or...

Ah man, totally feeling this pain with my Kontrol mk3, it's maddening to have to remember to hit shift+play to get it to play from the play head and all the other weird behaviors noted by others here. <rant> This just adds to the list of how limited the Kontrol mk3 is. So many threads I have been in...

Try Komplete Kontrol... it's horribly slow to come back with the wrench. :( Also, I notice that the keyboard shortcut only works when you've opened it with the wrench, if you click the wrench again to close it, the keyboard shortcut no longer works until you click the wrench again. For something on ...

It's amazing to me that no one else seems to think this is an issue. I guess I'll need to make a video about it, maybe then it will become more obvious how these behaviors differ in Live.

The first time you load a plugin it takes a while depending on the plugin (example: Komplete Kontrol is horribly slow and Addictive Drums 2 is extremely fast). Once loaded, if you click the wrench icon (Show/Hide Plug-In Window) it will then hide the plugin window. However, when you click it again, ...

Obscure tid-bit: Ableton Live does not support routing multiple MIDI output channels from a single VST. You can get round this with Blue Cat Audio Patchwork. It's a VST host that also runs as a plugin. It exposes 16 channels of MIDI to Live. That's how I've run Cardinal, the VCV Rack alternative ve...

Obscure tid-bit: Ableton Live does not support routing multiple MIDI output channels from a single VST. Like VCV Rack2, MaschineVST, etc. It sums all of them together to a single (All channels) output. So, if you want to have a VST that is producing MIDI and output that MIDI to some other instrument...

I have been super disappointed as a Push 3 owner that they don’t yet have arrangement view. My Push 3 will continue to collect dust until this feature is meaningfully added. :cry: Yep... I returned my P3S ... The workflow is just not there yet in my opinion (regarding using the Push as a standalone...

Agreed, but yeah, you can create a group in there and name that. You can also Edit the Info text so when you hover over it will show that text in the info pane.

Notice how when you first open a plugin window (the wrench show/hide plugin window button), it takes a bit to open and hangs the whole UI while doing it? After it does this initial load, if you click the wrench again (not close the window with the X), it just hides it but keeps it in memory so, it o...

Here's a pretty good reference for what's new in the accessibility department. https://www.ableton.com/en/release-notes/live-12-beta/ I think you can use the keyboard to navigate focus to that little triangle button and then invoke it with enter or space or something... Considering you can have many...

Reading through the release notes, I see there are TONS of new shortcuts in support of better accessibility, which is great. But no word on customizing any of this. So... I am going to assume, it's all hard-coded... Guess we all (who care) need to keep using AutoHotKey to hack the keyboard shortcuts...
