hello i have a question. My Ableton live 8 is being weird. when i play like my audio it is relaly choppy like it sounds like you are cover your ears and letting go everything second and when i try to open my auto tune EFX it crashes the whole live crashes please hlep

[Area593Studio]

@omgit5shawnxd Sounds like either a buffer size issue, or your computer might need updated audio drivers for your interface. Buffer size for your interface can be adjusted in the preferences where you select your audio interface.

hey man im sorry if this is a stupid queestion but im new to live and i have been wanting to know.

say that you have and electric drum kit and that you arent really satisfied with those sounds.

would you be able to trigger the drumm sounds on live 8 from your electric kit?

thanks,

Chris

@XChrisxRubiX As long as your electronic kit has MIDI out then there should be no issues with using it to trigger samples. I've messed around with that sort of stuff before and had some great results.

[XChrisxRubiX]

@Area593Studio alright sweet thanks!

I am new with Ableton, if it were not for people like you, I would be lost. Thank you.

@djscratch22 Thanks!

[randomdane]

Thanks...I echo what downshifthn said..

[downshifthn]

I like that quick style of tip giving; thanks. The faster someone explains it, the easier it is for our brain to digest it. That's why we have thousands of words made up of 26 letters and a hundred or so sounds instead of thousands of individual sounds for each word. Learned more in 10 min than I have in entire hour+ courses. Gotta love a professional.

@downshifthn Many thanks, great to know you found it helpful!
