Ableton Live 11

Also you can load a sampler into each pad of the drum rack allowing you to multiple that by how ever many pads you use. I don’t think a lot of people know about that. Also you can load operator into each pad, thus making a custom FM drum machine.

How can I get the Note Expression glides to work with my hardware synths? It works with Wavetable but I can not get it to work with my DN in Overbridge mode and my Matriarch.

Your synths need to be MPE-capable. As far as i know, DN and Matriarch are not.

Okay, really, its only control over the pitch. Are you sure?

Well, that was fast! Somebody already made a way to morph between macro snapshots.

Does anyone know how to automate changes between the different macro presets we can save? I can’t figure out how to do it without overwriting the midi.

Warshipping “the Beast downstairs” might cause problems like that.

Curious. Maybe a feature request for Ableton. But it’d be nice to assign either a key or controller to launch the Variation PLAY button instead of the scroll and up and down buttons.

I like these variations though. It’d be nice to get a smooth transition between variations as well.

Found a M4L device that mimics the midi scale feature in 11.

http://tetmusic.com/scale_fold_features.html

It simply adds notes to a selected clip in the area before the clip starts so when you click the fold button it only shows the notes in your prefered scale.

I haven’t used it so I can’t speak for its usability.

I personally love their Arppegio designer (with a scale device placed straight after). Midi manipulator (havent got it yet) appears to provide a feature I’m still waiting for Ableton to add.

Welp, just wanted to share my enthusiasm for Hybrid Reverb’s “Spring” IRs incase anyone hadn’t found them yet. They sound so fkn nice, especially blended with a lil bit of algo verb.

I should have used fx rack selector more frequently, even if its not new, its a killer feature.

OTT is much hyped atm
There’s even a plug-in devoted to emulating that specific preset within ableton live
(Sure no doubt y’all’s know that… I only found out today)
