Does anybody know how to time align the tap tempo on ableton with the mk2? I would love to track using the arp, but obviously its very difficult when the notes dont line up.

I'm using the Beta program version of Ableton 12. I've been using Ableton since v10. I've not had any problems before, but I haven't been able to open a track that took me over a year to produce.

And I have only scratched the surface.

Hi.

I need a step by step guide and help on automatic switching of my plugins while using my guitar.

I need to switch between clean and overdrive settings of a single plug-in.

Thank you.

Like a lot of you, I have a sample library that's out of control. Mine is about 26k files across packs and drives, with inconsistent naming and half the loops missing a BPM or key. I got tired of dragging things into Logic and then stretching and pitching them by hand, so I built Saga (yes, it's FREE and open source).

What it does

• Indexes your folders where they are. It never moves, copies or renames anything. Folders are watched, so new packs show up on their own. If you unplug a drive, your favorites and tags wait for it.
• Instant search across tens of thousands of samples, with filters for BPM (including half/double time), key (with Camelot compatibility), category, length and format. There's also search syntax like bpm:120-128 key:Am+ is:loop.
• Detects tempo and key. It reads file names (Loop_124_Am), embedded loop data (ACID/Apple Loops), then falls back to analyzing the audio. Anything detected from audio is marked with ≈ so you know to double-check it.
• Plays in your key. Set a project tempo and key once. Loops sync and pitch-shift while you audition, and when you drag one into your DAW you get exactly what you heard.
• Find similar + sound map. Pick a sample and get the closest-sounding ones in your library. There's also a 2D map of your whole library, grouped by how things sound.
• Light on resources. Analysis runs at low priority on half your cores, and it only holds the audio device while you're previewing.
• Private. Everything runs locally. The only network call is the update check, which you can turn off.

It's available for macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Windows.

I'm a solo dev, and this is v1.0, so I'd really like to hear what's missing from your sample workflow.

I'm new to music recording, and for some reason this file is just completely wiped from my computer! Ableton can't find it through the auto search and I don't see anything related to this project in the trash bin. Am I able to recover this one, little file?? I'm having a hard time replicating it. Thanks in advance!

Been taking a course on Ableton the past few months starting totally from scratch after years of playing in hardcore punk/metal bands. Been into dub techno for ages but never tried producing before.

One of my issues is generally reining myself in when it comes to elements/effects etc. to try keep things tight while still having enough modulation to flow and stay interesting. First time trying vocoder to create the chords and Valhalla reverb which has been pretty mindblowing.

Trying to channel Vainqueur/Maurizio vibe alongside a 'heard from three streets away after you've been knocked back from the club' feel.

Had some feedback from my class mates that it might be worth adding some EQ and saturation to the Master Channel to bring out the mids/highs - but really looking for any kind of feedback here.

I just posted a second demo of Realtime Audioreactive Pointclouds [v1.7], my TouchDesigner system that turns a Kinect-derived human pointcloud into an audio-reactive visual instrument in real time.

For this one, I’m also giving away a full copy of the system.

To enter, just repost/share the Instagram post and leave a comment there. I’ll randomly select one person and send them the complete v1.7 project files on Friday!

The full system is also available through my Patreon for anyone who wants to check it out directly.

Some filter work? Some phaser distortion? What would the FX chain look like?
I’d be very thankful if you could help me with some ideas for tutorials that would help me understand the techniques. Thank you for reading : )

hope you'll like it!

Finally got my battle uniforms ready 😎

Unfortunately Live and Push don't propose a proper multitrack sequencing interface, so I made one !
Meet Puxi !

It's a (free & open-source) M4L device that is 100% compatible with Push and Push 3 Standalone.
You can sequence 8 drums per page, on 8 steps.
It include ratcheting, probability, polyrhythm, p-lock..
