I'm pretty sure we don't do that. But I couldn't really understand what you mean. Can you help us out? Thx!
Thanks for replying. What I mean is that when it comes to quantisation in LK is it an ‘all or nothing’ affair? In, for example, Maschine on the desktop (I think also Logic, and Atom piano roll, but not sure) I can record some midi notes from a keyboard and then have the option of quantising them a little bit, say 50%, rather than snapping them perfectly to the grid.
The advantage of this, is that these sorts of program can tidy up my sloppy playing, without making the rhythm too mechanical sounding.
I hope this is a bit clearer, sorry I am still something of a novice with this stuff. As you say I am pretty sure LK doesn’t have this, but I just wanted to be sure there wasn’t something I missed. I am really enjoying the app anyway.
Thanks for your explanation. That makes all the sense now.
We have been improving LK a lot in the last couple of months. We want to create a dedicated section in composer for notes operations. I'm sure this is something we can easily deploy.
By the way, we are testing the release candidate for 1.8.1 with the following improvements:
@sinosoidal Whoa, that's quite the changelog for a .0.1 release!
Any chance you all are considering integration with the Launchpad controller?
That would be fantastic if possible
Gets my vote.
Hopefully these are easy questions to answer. I don't use Live.
Seems an obvious feature but does LK allow sequencing of clips? I've spent quite some time with the demo, manual etc and haven't figure it out.
Related to the above, is the Matrix IAP required to enable this?
no bm3 even not supporting this feature(
A song mode would be awesome with clip arrangement per midi channel on a timeline.
You can use follow actions to sequence the clips, I hope that the scenes get a midi trigger and follow actions too.
Cool, will try to find that function. Really interested to know what people are using it for if not sequencing clips.
it makes sense for multitrack live audio or midi recording to the host app
Live work I assumed. Just thought it would make more sense to sequence in the app rather than record to host.
The way I use it is similar to Ableton workflow, I sequence the clips with follow actions, use automation on tracks for sequencing volumes and other modulation etc and play the scenes (if we get midi triggerable scenes it will be enough to make a basic song mode), I record multitrack audio out to Ableton, either to session view or directly to arrangement view.
Would good if there was a global "follow action" option.
What do you set it to for sequencing clips?
@Ailerom Probably not what you are looking for, but after reading your question I went to try something.
2 tracks inside aum, 1 for playing clips with notes, 1 for automation.
From track 2 with 1 clip without notes, I send automation to change clips from track 2.
Set clip 1 from track 1 to midi cc1 in the properties (I chose Chan 16) and set clip 2 to midi cc2.
In track 2, set lk output to chan 16, then in the automation clip, add a modulation for midi cc1, and make a node at 127 close to the end of the clip (any length), then just before it add a node, and drag it right below the other node at value 0.
Next add a new modulation for cc 2, add a node just before whenever you want clip 2 to start at value 127, and again one right below it at value 0.
Set LK to receive midi from itself.
This is done inside aum.
This creates other problems, as you can’t for example play notes into the track anymore. But you can build songs with it.
Thanks @Frank303
I appreciate the time to provide that. I would probably only use LK if I could record what I play by selecting clips. I think at this point I would probably be most likely to record the midi out in Cubasis. I've been doing this and it works fine. I really hope an in app clip recording option is a possibility though.
Adding a new scene to a track resets the track midi output. So I have to add scene and reselect the output every time.
That does not happen to me...?
Can you describe the steps in more detail? Maybe I'm not doing the same thing you are.
I have a single track. Running the standalone. Output set to EG Pulse. Tap arrow and select add clip. Output for that track is reset to default. Haven't tried with multiple tracks.
This is a tricky and nasty bug. I've been able to reproduce it. From my observations:
We will fix it soon. Thanks for letting us know.
No worries, if I had the Matrix IAP I could test for longer but I haven't bought it. Just waiting for it to work like I need to.
Ahh. I never use it in standalone so I missed that.
Maybe it won't happen in auv3. I was just testing it out standalone to learn the capabilities before I consider it's potential for me.
Can @sinosoidal comment on the recording of sequenced clips?
I’m getting some kind of odd quantization with the keyboard in the AU version with the keyboard. If I play a three note chord the shortest note I can play is about a 1/16th note. Single notes, or chords not made up of three notes are fine. Weird.
This is on the update just released today.
What keyboard? The composer keyboard? That one wasn't multitouch until this latest version. That's probably why you have only noticed it now.
That will happen with all three touches input because of an operating system introduced delay that we haven't been able to shutdown yet.
It is not impossible. I can't promise it will happen or provide you an ETA though.
So far you are the only person requesting such feature. There a is lot of people here that right now would prefer to have more control over the clip playing and editing capabilities.
An arrangement module would be fantastic and would definitely qualify as another IAP.
Wow, mind blown.
