Nice video tysm. I wanna ask you a question,what is the best method to combine vst in the same MIDI channel? I was trying for example to add Massive to a Channel with Vital but It replaces the other synth. I wanna try new vst and some are kinda like effects,so i'm wondering how to add them as a effect. Instrument rack maybe si the way? THX and sorry if this comment is too long😅
@meziahdanieljolley88422 жыл бұрын
What I am trying to understand is if you can use a single VST to play multiple instruments on different tracks. To explain, I want to use the VST ReFX Nexus in a song. I want to create different midi tracks using different sounds, but using only a single instance of Nexus. Is it possible?

@Heleno. Жыл бұрын
Hi, I use Keys Step Pro to control and sequence some digital synthesizers installed in Ableton, including Dune 3, Arturia Pigment, etc.. I create music which is composed of several Synthesizer Presets. When I'm playing the song live, and I need to change from one Preset to another, I go into the Sound Bank of the respective Synthesizer and select the Preset to change. I ask: Is there a way in Ableton itself, or a Plugin, that I can select the Presets of each Synthesizer and from this selection/mapping I can activate the preset that I will use? As if it were a screen that showed the Tracks for each Synthesizer, with their respective pre-selected presets. Is there a more practical and agile way to do this?

All I find are adding Ableton effects to external VST instrument, OR adding an external VST effect to an Ableton instrument. Both are super easy but no one has instructions on using VST effect on a VST instrument! I have one each on 2 separate tracks and try to run my VST instrument track to my VSt effect and tried every in /, channel, and out permutation, but nothing works. Thanks.

Appreciated your vid - thanks! Any tips for a guy who's already installed a bunch of VST plug ins before viewing your vid and learning that Ableton likes all its VST plug-ins to be in one folder (unlike some other DAWs). I'm tempted to point the VST folder be simply C: program files. I read that you can make shortcuts from these various VST folders and the shortcuts in the Ableton-specified VST folder. I like how you labeled it C:VST/64. Many of my VSTs have 2-3 folders located in the computer ( I think some are dlls, maybe Wave files? etc. Aany tips are appreciated.

It doesn't show the waveform because MIDI does not contain any audio information. If you want to create fades you can either freeze and flatten the track to audio or use automation in the arrangement view.

Help! I have my VSTs loaded into ableton. But when I drop VST effect to a midi track using either an Abletone core instrument or a VST instrument, the instrument just disappears and all I have is a VST effect on the track. I've watched 10 tutorials but none of them address this problem. They either talk about adding VSYs to your list, scanning them or messing around with them. No one talks about adding VST effects without deleting instruments and how to prevent it. Ive used the same VSTs in other DAWs without this happeneing. Good videos, but I cant find an answer to this basic issue. Thanks.

Load it as a VST plug-in on an audio track inside Ableton Live. You wouldn't want to have the standalone version open and record the output into Live. If you record with it as a plug-in on an audio track you can adjust the settings after.
