In addition to this, Ableton Live has learned to link two or more tracks together for simultaneous processing.Ībleton Live 11 has full support for the MIDI Polyphonic Expression (MPE) standard. The DAW now organizes multiple replays of audio files and MIDI regions into separate takes, and users can mix different parts of different takes together to get the “perfect” part. The first notable innovation is the updated Comping function for audio merging. According to the creators, the update focuses on providing new opportunities for “recording, performing and experimenting.” The developers have added new features and devices to the program, as well as refined existing functions. And get the unlimited potential of Max for Live built in seamlessly.Īlmost three years after the release of the tenth version of the program, Ableton has presented a major update to Ableton Live 11. Create your own sound with a curated library. Move further away from your computer with Push. Stay tuned with many workflow improvements. Create bolder sounds with new Live devices. Nearly everything in Live works in real time – add, reorder, or remove devices, play with flexible Live track routing and more – all without interrupting your creative process. Freely and independently start and stop any number of audio or MIDI loops – everything stays in sync. Live syncs everything and works in real time, so you can play and modify your musical ideas without interrupting your creative process.īut Live also features the revolutionary Session View: a unique notepad for improvising, playing and performing with musical ideas, without time limits. If the Q88 is not sending midi over its midi din output - then you need to check the Q88 manual, as there is probably some setting on the Q88 that determines how midi is routed to usb and its midi din out.Ableton Live lets you easily create, produce and perform music in one intuitive interface. (if you always have the pyramid turned on when using live, then you could even disable the Q88 midi in live) … this is I would say the ‘normal’ way to use the pyramid/controller in such a setup. (so you will still be able to play LIVE from your q88, just it’ll be going via the pyramid) This way, you’ll get the q88 midi data via the pyramid, or the recorded pyramid data… If you want to use q88->pyramid->live, which I guess is the case, then you should set the Live track to just take input from the pyramid. q88 (usb) → live, q88 (din)->pyramid → live If so you are going to have to be careful that midi does not flow from the Q88 both via usb and via pyramid, this will cause issues.Į.g. With ALL Ins set on track, both should work (I routinely use multiple input sources)ĭo you have the Q88 din out → pyramid din IN? Though, this won’t cause an issues, since you have the script set to NONE anyway.Īpart from that ableton setup looks ok (as far as I can see) You don’t need to list either pyramid or q88 as a control surface, id set these to none (unfortunately, to get to the bottom of these things details are important) To be honest, Im not quite sure what you are trying to achieve and have set up… (as I said, not really pyramid specific I don’t think ) ![]() ![]() I really don’t care about the sync (beyond tempo), so the above things are generally not an issue…Īnd if im multi-tracking, if there are sync issues, I can correct afterwards.Īll that said, what I play, is not that sync critical… I know others have a lot more frustration in this area. So what I tend to now use ableton for is simply :Ī) software instruments - u-he plugins mainly, also pianoteq Honestly, I don’t do this very often now (partly because I now have an octatrack). Generally, it’s best to use Ableton as the Master Clock. Sorry, I can’t describe it all either, as its all a bit interconnected… so would take a lot to walk thru, and frankly, thats what the ableton help does. The best bet is to go thru the ableton help, and just take it slowly and figure it out yourself. The ‘solution’ (with hardware, things like multi clock) is all to do with using things like clock delays, track delays and delay compensation - unfortunately, this is not the simplest of things to get right, and requires quite a bit of thought - unfortunately, this means most YouTube videos I see on this (even by my favourite YouTubers) are either wrong, or misleading ! You’ll find lots of comments on sync ‘issues’, frankly, this is common as soon as you start integrating hardware and software. Mainly what Id do is create sequences on the Pyramid for hardware, and then use live to audio record them in clips - so basically a complex looper Ive played with this quite a bit over the years…Īt one point I was using Push 2 w/Live + Pyramid …
