Cool, how do you program rests? |

Hey, GastonKilo. This has the potential to be even better! I agree with @muball: if rests had the same input system as the notes you'd bypass one of the main obstacles Ableton has when it comes to actually writing music inside the DAW. I hope you can incorporate this suggestion to an already amazing device. Thanks! |

until an update for rests comes around; you can do a temp fix by inputting a low-velocity note, and then using a Velocity midi device after it to filter out low velocities. |

Hi all Sorry I didn?t had the notifications! By rest do you mean inclue a space between the next note? If yes, that?s my plan for the next version! |

Thank you so much. This was exactly what I was looking for after seeing this in Cubase. Much love! |
I tried using this yesterday. Unfortunately what happens is that the position marker in ableton and the device are not synced. I know i must be missing something but my cursor was at beat two and i was at step inputting in bar 20. I stopped typing for a second to go back and check it because I saw the Current step value. Unfortunately, this cant be controlled so it moves automatically but I have NO control over where it starts from. I have to switch the device off for the current step to be reset. It then goes back to zero. Furthermore, the device can be on step 20 or 17 and the clip is only 4 steps (4 1/4 notes) long. I appreciate the efforts of all creators. So thank you for trying to solve a problem for us because Ableton refuse to implement basic functions. However, in its current state/ my current understanding of how it works. It isn't practically usable for me. |
