AuthorTopic: Live 3 - The most fun you can have with a mouse

Or mapped keyboard keys
Or mapped MIDI keys

Last night me and the band loaded up just a ton of things that we had downloaded from primesounds into a Live session; Dark synth loops, dark repetative bass loops, chemical beats, house beats, scratches etc. Then we just started randomly clicking on stuff. I can't imagine a more fun way to work with pre-recorded loops.

We are going to take all of the music we have composed, break it up in to chunky loops and use Live to perform it for our friends. We have a chunky version of Fatboy Slims Praise You that we are also going to perform with Live.

Oh, and we are going to sacrafice a Turntable to the Digital Gods as well...with a sledge hammer Very Happy .

The only thing that prevents me from using Live in a situation that's not quite 'live' is the fact that their rewire slave implementation does not support midi over rewire. It's a whole lot of fun to play with, but I wish it would at the very least do this, else why bother making it a slave?

Get MIDI-OX and you can play reason live through LIVE all ya want! Works great. I almost don't sequence in Reason any more, I just play it right into Live and edit there.

Err... I meant Ableton Live as a Rewire Slave and something else as a master. For instance, Live as a slave allows me to sync all that fun Live stuff in Tracktion. However, I can't trigger Ableton Live spots via MIDI when it's used as a slave, as they don't support midi over rewire. The idea for doing this is to be able to record the midi triggers and whatnot that would get fed to Live (as a slave) and change, edit, modify the performance.

Get MIDI Yoke (and OX) - it'll let you route MIDI out from Trackion and back in to Ableton without any fuss and bother. If both support MTC or Sync, it'll be in sync with the (ReWired) audio, too.
