Learn Live 12: Granulator III

[@MatthewJ.Tinney]

I was wrong. Live 12 is amazing! As I am exploring more I'm seeing that nothing has been downgraded it's actually been upgraded. I'm very happy that so much attention and care has been put in to Ableton Live.

[@itinerantghost]

Yes! Love the new Granulator update. Great job, friends!

[@in.sebtion]

Live 12 is a great update overall..love it! But the granulator is actually a step back for me personally. I found the second version waay better to use and even the ui is much better. The lack of the FM in the third version is in itself a huge miss and the cpu seems to be waaay to high. Maybe that's just a personal feeling. Would be amazing if you'd add the FM back to it and work on its cpu performance. If not..then obviously the second version is more than enough for my needs :) Apart from that thanks for the great update and tutorials!

Robert Henke replied to my email „I did not expect a lot of people finding it useful, so I removed it“, maybe if you reach out to him he will add it back in an update!

@@calvinlanz7046There's like a dozen different threads on centercode all complaining about the lack of FM...

[@calvinlanz7046]

@@_CRiT_hits_ok, why not reach out to Robert Henke with this information? Whats the use of complaining on a random forum when you can write to the developer directly?

[@jimmygonyea9752]

I think the point is to use granulator II and III together

[@ItsWesSmithYo]

Cool glad ELPHNT did this one cause his video on User Library changed my life 😂 that said, feature is cool, but maybe light, although tons of foundation for incremental improvements before V13 thanks friends

[@iFeature]

Finally we have the new update! Thanks Ableton

[@BeatsbyVanity]

Who else is excited for Live 12?

[@mangrove1985]

It's pretty goooood!

[@hasan7786]

I lost the hype in all the beta hype and endless “what’s new in Ableton” videos. Had the beta and really like the new features but the excitement is kind of gone as of a month ago.

[@mangrove1985]

@@hasan7786 Still, have you discovered "keep latency"?

[@AdamFiregate]

I am excited as well. 😉💛

i love it as well! better than 10 to 11 in the past

[@mikeklement7223]

Great update, way more user friendly

[@nximusic]

Granulator is my to go feature in Ableton, lovely to see new version

[@extendedblundering]

Ableton you are really holding up your end on this purchase. and I love you for that

[@jrettetsohyt1]

I hope Granulator 4 will allow continuous real time audio input like Sugarbytes Graindad, with transient detection so I can hit my snare any time and have it start being granulated (and even scan time stretched) immediately. That would be awesome!

[@levii444]

Gonna use granulator 3 as my main sampler now it’s so fast to get creative ideas

[@theblowupdollsmusic]

Fantastic update. But why will it not save the sample with the project if we capture? Seems like an oversight.

[@lstlvls2521]

Can you not save the preset and load that in the project?

[@midiscripts]

Does Granulator 3 support Push 3 Standalone?

[@woodleyacid]

It would be cool if you could route live external audio through this as an effect.

[@phelper4554]

Is the FM mode gone?

[@wayback1010]

Is it out now?

[@vvlvmusic]

Yeah :)

[@BrassicaMusic]

I'm just happy to not have the Max Errors window appearing anymore!

[@NamelessSmile]

Wish they'd made this a proper device. Max4Live is way too unstable for large projects

[@javinofx]

Hello Everybody!! Is this device (Granulator 3) also available to use in Push 3 standalone version?

[@gofelriebenschmalz6687]

it feels like a downgrade except from the ui. where is the fm. it really made granulator special for me

[@calvinlanz7046]

Robert Henke replied to my email „I did not expect a lot of people finding it useful, so I removed it“, maybe if you reach out to him he will add it back in an update!

[@outerdarkness]

Is the 'Grab' feature in this version? With version II it was amazing to capture a live performance and have it placed into the Granulator.

[@Ableton]

Hi there - Thanks for the comment. "Grab" has been replaced by "Capture", which enables you to do the things you're wanting to do! You can check here for more info: bit.ly/4921UGI . Thanks - Ableton

[@outerdarkness]

@@AbletonAhh... very cool. Thank you!! Looking forward to getting the update.

[@hexlemorte5201]

Um so I downloaded it in the packs section, it wouldn’t open. Then after I restarted 12 it disappeared?

[@jamesbolt4489]

Amazing!!!

[@jrettetsohyt1]

Imaginando’s FRMS uses fm to good effect. I hope Granulator 4 will get fm n am back, and have multiple layers to interact with each other.

[@dsajo.]

That’s sick

[@bigatheus]

superb

[@jayradbeats]

very nice!

[@djnonnus]

Let me see if I understood correctly: if you capture a new sample and use the disk icon on the top right corner to save the device preset it will NOT save the sample automatically? you need to manually use the in device save button to save the sample?

[@spinear]

Why YOUR M4L device font is the same as the Live font? My M4L device font is thin as hell and hard to read. I thought this was normal for all, but now I know it's not.

I can't understand the use of LFO Freq... Can anyone explain me what does it affect?

[@noskillsmf]

ABLETON ctrl+space doesn't work on multiclip midi it was not working from 11 they hadn't still fixed it on 12 1.they should had implemented slots feature permanently on live 12 it would make it cleaner where we can open and close plugins directly on mixer. 2. 3rd party plugins while loading them should had loaded with minimized xy pad 3. shortcut to open and close a plugin so that we don't have to go to small wrench icon (ctrl+alt+P only works for single specific plugin) 4. shortcut to hide devices Panel i think on live 11 they had shortcut for it (ctrl+alt+L) which doesn't work on 12 5 Dry and wet knob for plugins 6. feature where you hold ctrl/command while dragging loops or samples to get it unwarped on the timeline

[@NOEL-004]

Is spray control still in granulator 3? I don't find it I like that it looks clean, but I miss some stuff from granulator 2🙃

[@calvinlanz7046]

This is controlled by the variation parameter, robert henke got back to me on that very quickly by mail.

[@NOEL-004]

@@calvinlanz7046 thank you for the quick response played a bit with the variation, but it feels kinda limited with gran 2 you could get up to 60 seconds spray and in gran 3 it's only 2 seconds if I haven't overlooked another parameter🤔

I have a question, when I downloaded and upgraded from 11 to Ableton 12, can I uninstall 11??? I did log a ticket with Ableton asking this, but they are just SO slow, their customer service is rubbish...Can you confirm???

[@Ableton]

Hi there, you have the option to run both versions on your computer at the same time: bit.ly/3TqJcDa However, it's recommended to uninstall Live 11 after installing Live 12 to avoid confusion. You can follow these steps to install Live 12: bit.ly/3v9331F To uninstall Live 11, please follow these steps: bit.ly/3TG5AcZ (macOS) or bit.ly/3TpZFXZ (Windows) Should you need any further assistance, please let our Sales Support Team know: bit.ly/3VqFyvK Thank you!

[@DM43685]

@@Ableton 🙏 Thanks but those links didnt mention anything about uninstalling 11 after 12…. I’ll log a chase call, it’s a bit ridiculous Ableton, never designed the upgrade to uninstall 11…

[@korgscrew2000]

Tried Live and went back to Logic Pro. It's just too overly complicated and expensive. In Logic it's free to add a midi modulator before an instrument.

[@hexlemorte5201]

I downloaded it in abelton 12 no sound or prompt. So I closed and opened it again and it disappeared from my library and I can’t download it.😂

It’s such a CPU hog that it’s unusable in a live situation (especially in Capture mode). Please make it less bad

[@foljs5858]

Live has some great devices, but this is like a Fischer Price, bad on the CPU, version of Padshop from Cubase or Grain from Reason, or Alchemy's granular engine in Logic

It's awesome, but a terrible CPU hog. I won't even bother to try & run it on Push 3 Standalone's i3 CPU :(

What's going on with the warp and session view? The inconveniences of sampling in push are never fixed. Even at the sequencer level, everything is not very convenient. It's actually easier to switch to fruits, ableton doesn't hear its customers. There is no point upgrading to version 12, the problems have not been fixed and apparently will not be fixed "ever" (the keyword here is "never").

[@Kapitoshka_Kapitoshkovich]

What the fuck are you releasing an update that is worse than version 11?

[@HH-Thorsten]

In that case. Switch to fruits or whatever and be happy. No one is forcing you to update. Easy as that.
