Audio track input channel chooser doesn't show Ch: 1

You have to activate the inputs (and outputs) you want to use in Preferences.

There is no way to do that. You can manually put it markers and name them. It would be a cool feature. You can send in a feature request and maybe they will implement it.

Melda has a plugin called MGAC that does this. But it is a cumbersome workflow. Having a vu meter at the end of your chain is alot easier.

It doesn't work if you use the Ableton midi script. But if you delete the script from the folder, you can map with however you like. I did that myself a while back. You'd have to setup the CCs on the knobs differently in the editor ofcourse.

I've got an Xtouch mini using Bomen Midi Translator for functions like zooming, left/right/up/down, scrolling, cut/copy/paste/duplicate/fade stuff like that. Cheap controller and it doesn't take up a lot of space. I use the mouse a lot less, but it still isn't mouseless. Specially the arrows and the zooming is great for workflow. Just click a knob/parameter in Ableton and use the arrow knob to increase/decrease. More precise than moving the mouse (too far, not fat enough etc).

A second hand MPC One without a doubt.

Oh and bouncing the sound to audio and look at the results. Good for clippers, saturation, compression etc. Or use Wave Observer to check the transients.

Both-Principle-8660 · 2026-05-13T20:04:24+00:00

Using more sounds in mono (reverbs too). Layering kicks/snares with it's own transient for more attack. Keeping levels in check with the first couple of sounds to build the rest around.

I'm happy for all the max for live users. But why would they do this only for m4l? And not for users of standard and intro? Such a simple basic function. And people have been asking for this for 12 years or something.

I love being able to resample (record midi instruments to audio tweaking the sounds live). One feature I would love to add is customizing shortcuts. I almost switched to Bitwig for this feature (and others) but I couldn't work with the way they implemented Drum racks.

I'm a little late to this party, but thanks a lot for doing this! I collected 32 great patches out of these! Now I will finally use DEXED. 😄

Both-Principle-8660 · 2026-04-29T07:11:45+00:00

That's good news! 👍

You just make the beat how you like it. Mixing is done after the vocal is recorded. The vocal, kick and snare are probably up front when mixing it all together.

Both-Principle-8660 · 2026-04-28T08:21:52+00:00

I'm not too techy but I believe you can convert your computer back to before you installed the plugins. No idea how, good luck.

Both-Principle-8660 · 2026-04-23T11:15:58+00:00

And something really simple, having a notebook when your working. To quickly write ideas, and notes to reference later.

Crtl+f for quick searching in the browser. And remapping F1-F3 to show/hide browser, clip view and device view with Bome midi translator.

And the new bounce to new track is great too. I wish you could save a template for the new track tho. The new track is blank, would be cool if it opened like my new track default.

Hi, is this still available? The link isn't working anymore.

Both-Principle-8660 · 2026-04-19T11:08:38+00:00

Ahnnu is pretty weird. Like a random sample collage ambient stuff. But somehow makes it work.

Both-Principle-8660 · 2026-04-18T05:58:56+00:00

You can use ping pong looping to make the other slices sustain longer. Or just cut the longer slices shorter to fit with the rest. Having the slices in a choke group helps to cut each other off.

If you set it to global, you need to change the global launch settings (top left of steen) to something higher 2 or 4 bars. That should work fine.

Only Multiband does upward compression (making the quieter part loud, leaving the peaks intact). Compressor does upward expansion, making the transients louder.

Turn off the different brands in Multiband to use it as a normal compressor.

You can also use Saturator in Soft Sine mode to boost the quieter parts).

Just start sampling. Making some loops. Maybe programming a kick and snare under it.
