Midi play with Ableton problem

Post by Pygmy »

I've connected my x0x to ableton via midi in & out, set the proper channels etc.
I can play the x0x fine using my pc keyboard to play some notes in Ableton - it works completely as expected when just manually triggering notes.
But when I actually enter some notes in a midiclip and play *that* on the x0x, it doesn't play correct - it sounds like all notes slide to some note a few octaves up, so it just makes wobbly sounds and fades out.

To check I recorded some loops from the x0x to ableton midi clips, same problem when I play these back to the x0x.
Anyone any idea what could be wrong ?

Try to switch off midi-sync for the midi-output-device in the preferences of Live!
Sometimes these impulses trigger notes and result in random-notes!
I 've had this problem with several hardware synth...

That fixed it ! I thought I had already tried toggling remote and sync on and off but apparently not.
Cheers !!

I've never had that problem with hardware synths. It has got to be Ableton that messes that up.
