Ableton Note

Welcome to the Party. Note has grown up quite a lot in a short amount of time.

Is there any way to use time signatures other than generic 4/4?

Looks like the latest beta adds step-sequencing ?

That will be a massive update, I wonder when it will get released…

I love the way Note integrates with Live…so easy to capture a quick idea (a note!) and then it just magically appears in Live.

Why only iOS? No luv for Android???

Piracy, poor audio and midi latency, plus the fact that there’s like hundreds of different models of android handset all with varying specs…

I think it definitely needs more sample chopping functionality. Something like what koala sampler is doing.

Had to test it out after move announcement,really like it,great fun and is my rellplacement for my favourite ios app endlesss.fm. just curious If anyone used this with Bluetooth midi controller and does it work well,not a lot of info around about that. Is it just 8 macros to map and doss that apply for all instrument channels?

I just noticed that the piano roll feature is not out of beta yet, so I went back to using the beta. It’s too much of an improvement. :grin:

What is the new piano roll feature again?

An actual daw-like piano roll where you can just draw in and edit notes, or drag to add multiple notes.

Oh right this is the Note thread. I thought it was the Live thread. Sorry for being dumb

Any ideas how to set the pan of a track?

Definitely a much better experience.

Did you see a way to change the start position?

Like a microtiming/nudge? If you long press a note the old menu opens with the ‘d-pad’ that allows you to nudge notes forwards and backwards.

Sorry, I meant bar position. I created a 2 bar instrument loop, but the start position is on the 1 of bar 2, so it’s starts midway of the melody line.

Ah gotcha. Yes, you can change the start position of the loop but don’t think it has a ‘wrap around’ like the Elektron sequencer has.

A workaround is duplicating the loop, adjusting it to the right position and then cropping again :+1:

Makes sense. Thank you!

Mmmm … 1.2beta had it, but the released 1.2 doesn’t have it :frowning:

Yeah, a few versions back they had a note saying that they were splitting the beta features — apparently there are still a few “known issues” and planned additions for the MIDI editor. I got a little sick of Testflight and Centercode so I’m 100% back on the stable release track, but I have to give them credit: the public betas for Live 12.1, Push 2.1, and Note 1.2 + piano roll were very, very usable.
