I WANTED Reaper to be the best DAW because I paid for it and had so much time invested in it. What’s the adage? “One person’s junk is another person’s treasure?” It doesn’t make any of us right or wrong, just different.Īnd you can’t overlook confirmation bias.
The reviews discussing the sundry pros and cons of each DAW are about as useful as those online chats parsing the tonal, playing, and durability qualities of various guitar strings. I read all the online reviews and watched enough videos to teach a course on Reaper at a community college (smile). I went to Ableton about a month ago after frustration heaped upon frustration trying to get the MC8 to work with Reaper and to get Reaper to respond to simple midi commands. Seriously, I’m sort of suffering buyers remorse over pedal purchases now that I’m learning the capabilities of Ableton Live. Much more visual and flexible than a looper pedal, unless you like to loop and play on the fly. Once recorded and tweaked you can save as a scene. My application above was for recording and tweaking loops. But I don’t remember if “select loop” area is one of their options.īut we might be talking about two applications, For live performance you can set up your loops as “scenes” in Ableton and call them up independently with your MC8. Their scripts are pre-fab, nearly cut and paste. I plan to look for a script that will enable that function (I mentioned “Remotify” in my original posting. Once that is done, then all functions work. You need to click on the bracketed area with your mouse to highlight it. There is a command to begin looping a section, but there is NOT a command to select the looped section. “Wouldn’t there be a way to also have this happen, somehow, via a command?” This works when the Ableton track is in warp.Īnyway, recorded for future reference. The remaining 1%, tempo, I used long press scroll, cc 127 to slow tempo and long press scroll, cc 1 to accelerate tempo. This accomplished 99% of what I needed it to do. Just enter Ableton keyboard shortcuts into a search engine and voila! Essentially, your MC3/6/8 becomes a keyboard extension that permits you to emulate the bountiful number of keyboard shortcuts in Ableton Live. It is a brilliant midi workaround (okay, after finding a persistently elusive solution to a paralyzingly time-consuming problem, any solution is "brilliant).

Morningstar Engineering has a video on this, but after many hours of trial and error–including a brief detour into Remotify App scripts–I discovered that I was making things FAR, FAR too difficult when I stumbled into the Action “Press” Type “Keystroke” feature of MorningStar switchers. Especially when Ableton Live doesn’t “map” as fluidly as initially presented.

This is a posting for posterity, when some poor soul (like me) finds him/herself deperately searching for how to use their MC3/6/8 to control features in Ableton Live.
I wanted a program that is midi friendly that would permit me to use my MC8 to control recording, looping and tempo functions. I use the basic $99 version of Ableton Live to record and practice guitar.
