@@MagpieMelodies that's great to know Magpie. I think, the general framework of how you'd approach a song to begin with, when trying to set it up for live looping is the core I guess. I think we have to 'listen to it differently' ? Or not ? To be able to set it up ? Just throwing out some half baked thoughts 😂

Great!!! Sorry I have a question: How your ableton switch to auto arm automatically when you switch between tracks? Because mine doesn't move when I do it.( I have keylab essential 61 and it doesn't have Arm button like yours)

@MagpieMelodies

2 жыл бұрын

HI Mehrad, I can think of two ways to do this: 1) You can use midi learn to select the 'arm' button for each track and assign it to a specific pad on the keylab essential. 2) Try to Enable Record Mode Automatically On Track Selection. This is an additional option of ableton, and it will force Ableton to arm the track that is selected. You can look up some tutorials on youtube for this setting. Hope this helps!

I have connected everything accordingly but no sound is coming. And when shift+8 is selected I still can't use the knobs 8 & 16 to control the channels in ableton. Anyone know whats up? The control surface is set up EXACTLY as in the videos and/or all other videos I've seen. No sound when Minilab keyboard is played.

I always try updating it with the midi control centre. And, if you press a key and have enabled a midi instrument, do you see the volume of the track (bottom of screen) go up?

at the 2 minute mark, you move the knob to the side, so it cycles through your tracks. The record button lights up on each track. How did you set that up?

Hei Mate. Before mapping the pads to arm the tracks, don't forget to press Shift + Pad 8 (so you switch to proper mapping for Ableton Live). I had the same problem as you and this solved it.

From 6:30 onwards, the minilab video is ahead of the ableton screen due to a editing mistake, so that why these pads turned green all of a sudden :) (green means that there is an active clip in the selected track, you can play the clip by pressing the pad).

make sure you are in the Ableton preset. If you press shift, one of the eight pads shoud light up. In order to start recording with the pads, you have to be in the eight preset. To shift to this preset press SHIFT + 8th pad
