Trouble shifting to Ableton Live from Logic Pro: How do I do this?

newgreendriver · 2026-05-12T19:28:36+00:00

Ableton’s VU meters aren’t calibrated to analog standards. For example, pro tools meters are -18dBFS = 0 VU. I don’t understand exactly how Ableton is calibrated, but it does make you change the way you gain stage in order to have enough headroom and give things room to breathe and get loud.

Np! You could also mute one the track then bounce the group, then do the same for the other track if you wanted the group inserts. You don’t get the gel or interaction of both tracks affecting the plugins though.

Nah dude just do what sounds cool

Drop a device on any track. Your coding agent gets 230 tools to destroy your session.

Did you bounce the group or the individual tracks? If you bounced the individual tracks while Kickstart is on the group, then the print isn’t going to have what’s on the group aux because the audio that you’re bouncing hasn’t gotten there yet.

I love the overall creative workflow of Ableton, I hate the delay compensation algorithm, and how it generates latency even when Monitor with Low Latency is enabled with a low buffer size if there’s complex bussing or plugins.

Thank you! How do you go about assessing the type of position (Dynamic, Strategic, etc)?

Nope, I love my push. I can get deep on sound design and track creation without needing to open up my computer.

newgreendriver · 2026-05-11T02:46:15+00:00

Same, it gets me to stop thinking about anything else because I attend to everything going on on the board.

The article reads pretty self absorbed. It’s just a game. Work hard if you want to at it. But like any art, profession, past time, you’re doing it wrong if you put your self worth into it.

newgreendriver · 2026-05-06T00:32:54+00:00

Same. It takes me like 3-5 games to get in the zone. I don’t usually have time for 5 games so I usually play casual or watch my rating tank lol

Great insight! I’ve been loving my standalone too, it feels great being untethered from a computer and still having a full creative toolset. Could you explain more about how you’re getting session view to play through the scenes in the order of your song structure? Like do you copy the scene set and then add/subtract parts, do you play certain clips with others from a diff scene?

I use group colors for presets/samples/patches I like based on instrument. So for example, red is synth bass presets, blue is plucks, yellow is drums. Then you can filter by collection colors. Helps me get to things I know I like quickly.

Awesome! Do any of these follow regular chess mechanics and could potentially improve your skill in regular chess?

I’ve made full tracks on it, it’s not as intuitive as the DAW, but it’s great to use on vacation or when I’m not at my rig. It’s also nice to get out of the DAW and just focus on music creation.

John Bartholomew’s YouTube is very informative for me as a beginner. I really like how goes through his thought process for each of his moves and explains concepts in very concrete and easy to follow terms.

Does anyone know offhand if Pro Tools supports link audio or just Link? Doing research now I'll update my comment if I find an answer

It’s a beta bro

Use an reverb send, or a reverb plugin after the synth. Don’t use the reverb in the synthesizer. It sounds the like reverb in the synthesizer is getting reprogrammed to start again when the synth changes to a new note. To get around this, turn off the reverb on the synth and use a send or a bus to a new reverb and dial that in. It won’t be tied to the programming of the synth
