Ableton How To Quickly Switch Sound With Persisting The Same Patern

Hi, Just wondering if anyone hears any static when they are playing their session on Live. I've unarmed everything, turned in the input to none, and used only the internal Live instrument clips and I'm hearing static through my speakers and through my headphones.

• The Repository Design Pattern, defined by Eric Evens in his Domain Driven Design book, is one of the most useful and most widely applicable design patterns ever invented. Any application has to work with persistence and with some kind of list of items. These can be users, products, networks, disks, or whatever your application is about.
• Feel free to volunteer great resources you find on the net regarding writing music, the Ableton DAW, or tutorials and the like. Rules: Bookmark the Live manual, for it loves you. Try to post about Ableton stuff. Try not to post about non-Ableton stuff. Participate in good faith and avoid being mean, condescending, or outright insulting other users.

Komplete Kontrol has some great ARP and Scale features when using instruments loaded within the KK software but there may be times where you wish to use these features within a project containing other devices that cannot be loaded within Komplete Kontrol. This tutorial shows how to setup a single track with the Komplete Kontrol software loaded and rout the smart play features to any track in Live quickly and easily. This can also be handy to add Komplete Kontrol to older projects and templates without replacing every tracks instrument. This video tutorial shows the whole process but for a quick list of steps read on.Step 1: Understand the Komplete Kontrol Ableton RackIf you are brand new (or unfamiliar with Ableton Live) you first need to know that you need to load the KK plugin using an Ableton Instrument Rack included with the installation of komplete Kontrol. To install this and use it seeStep 2: Add a MIDI track for your Komplete Kontrol 'input'This is the single KK instance that acts as the MIDI input for your controllers. It will receive input from your controllers and send the smart play data to your tracksDrag the Komplete Kontrol rack onto the channel. Make sure your rack has the 'NIKB00' control set (note that if you have other instances already of Komplete Kontrol already in your project the end number will be different).

Be sure to firstly understand the need to use the Instrument Rack instead of just loading the VST itself.Step 3: Load a 'blank' instrument in Komplete KontrolOpen the VST interface for Komplete KontrolThen manually add the Kontakt plugin by going Menu PluginsClose the Browser to make a nice simple interface. You now have Kontakt loaded but it will remain emptyStep 4: Set the tracks MIDI Monitor input to 'IN'This sets the track to always listen to MIDI signals from controllers even when this track is not armedStep 5: Setup your Instrument TracksAdd whatever instrument tracks you like in Live and load with whatever instruments you like. On each track you would like to control using Komplete Kontrol smart play features set the 'MIDI From' to receive signal from the Komplete Kontrol track:Step 6: Arm the track and play your instrumentOnce you arm the track you should be able to now play one of your attached MIDI devices and hear sound from your instrument track. This will be passed from the Komplete Kontrol trackStep 7: Change the Scale/Arp functions in Komplete KontrolOpen the Scale/Arp settings in the Komplete Kontrol instance and set whatever you like (1).You can also change these settings from the keyboard by pressing the 'keyboard connect' button (2) or by pressing Shift+Instance on the keyboardYou should now be well on your way using a single instance of Komplete Kontrol to drive your entire project using smart play features. Just remember that any tracks you wish to use the smart play features you need to set the MIDI From to your KK instance track. Save this as a template to get started quickly.You can switch tracks from the keyboard using the track navigation controls and the track will auto arm as you navigate allowing immediate playback of the track. Just press Shift + Instance on the keyboard to gain control of the Scale/Arp features to make adjustmentsIf you are a Push user you will note that tracks set to receive input from the KK track no longer 'auto arm' when you use Push to select them.

This is normal and a workaround is to Hold the REC button on Push and press the Track Select button (the one below the LCD that selects that track) which Rec Arms the track. A small circle icon appears next to the name of a track that is armed. You can now use Push to smart play through KK too.Last modified on Saturday, 29 July 2017 21:15.
