Live 12 Browser Metadata - Ableton hates you.
Let's say I've got a bunch of content in Live 12's browser and I've invested some time tagging lots of it. Then I get a new computer or have to migrate to a different machine for whatever reason and I move all my content that I tagged to the new machine that has a fresh install of Live. How does the...

Re: Live 12 reference manual DISCONTINUED BOOOOOO
I want a manual that's not in a browser. Searchable. bookmarks. printable.
Deciding not to offer that is something that a professional, serious developer that respects its users would never do.

Re: Can we PLEAAASSSEEE finally get some proper plugin window management and UX?!!
"Facist" Really? Hurling pejoratives is sure to win them over. Well, they are in fact very authoritarian about anything that has to do with their UI design. Ableton's design choices suggest that they feel like plugin GUI windows are an abomination and an unacceptable, verminous eyesore on...

Re: Please increase the number of Control Surfaces
It seems likely that when the 6 slot limit was imposed, there were good technical reasons for it. And 6 probably seemed like plenty at first. All true. It's definitely not plenty now, though, and whatever technical/performance reasons existed then have not applied for many years. So expecting we oug...

Re: Please increase the number of Control Surfaces
Those are totally valid points. I think my gripe and the original poster's gripes about too few control surface slots fall into a different category than the sort of design-philosophy things you mention. It's just a needless limitation I'm talking about, as opposed to a change in the functional para...

Re: Please increase the number of Control Surfaces
Quite right, i beg your pardon. It took less than a half-hour for my complaint to be officially ridiculed.

Re: Please increase the number of Control Surfaces
If I'm not mistaken, I do believe I detect sarcasm. A snide remark from a forum administrator is a very poor substitute, on the part of the company, for implementing a much-needed and long-neglected improvement. It's pretty sad when we can't get a glaringly obvious feature enhancement in ten years, ...

Re: Please increase the number of Control Surfaces
This has been needed and asked for thousands of times over the course of over a decade. A decade. it's been totally obvious this whole time that it's been needed. If Ableton cared at all what their users want, there's no way we'd still be limited to six. But after all this time, we are still limited...

Re: CV Tools-CV Inst. pitch voltage offset
This is the sort of feature that would definitely enhance the feeling of seamlessness in the Live/modular workflow that CV tools makes possible. Heavy modular users would appreciate it. It would have to be an offset control that had fine enough resolution to be good enough for tuning, it should be m...

CV Tools-CV Inst. pitch voltage offset
With the CV Instrument, I am making device presets with the CV pitch calibrated for different hardware. In my case I use an Expert Sleepers es-3 for CV output, but if I run out of outputs on it, I can use a channel of my MOTU interface. The voltages are obviously very different between those two, so...

CV tools--CV Instrument Expression midi CC#
In the "Expression" tab in the CV Instrument device we have three channels of MIDI expression, each with a drop down menu for selecting that channel's source. The available sources in those menus are: Velocity, Modwheel, Pithbend, Aftertouch, and Keytrack. I want to be able to select MIDI ...

Re: MIDI Port-specific mapping
I'm pretty sure the reason for mappings to not be port specific is for portability. You can map stuff on your rig, and then it will still be mapped if you open it on your friend's machine, with whatever controllers he or she has (which would of course have different port names). That wouldn't be the...

New Product Idea
TWIST The way parameters map to the encoders on Push is great. 8 encoders are not enough, however. Alongside Push, Ableton should offer Twist (twisting knobs, get it?). 32 nice encoders with displays showing what each is doing. Essentially like the row of encoders and the display on Push 2, but fou...

Re: Link Rewire Client
Basically I want to be able to use Link to sync Live to Pro Tools, or Logic--and I doubt if Avid or Apple are going to support Link--although I'd love to be wrong about that. Creating as rewire client that you could sync to via Link would be a way to do that. It would also make Link more of a "...

Link Rewire Client
Ableton should create an app that can be a rewire client in Pro Tools or other rewire host and provide the accurate sync that is available with Rewire to a Link session. What i want to do: I want to sync Live to a pro tools session that has a tempo map with lots of little tempo changes in it. It's a...
