I use to play Sarges War no problem, and Conker when it would freeze at Scarecrow encounter. I could name 5 thoroughly non-ergonomic ways the midi editing works, but I'll spend my time looking at real piano rolls since Ableton doesnt see fit to use its overpriced upgrade costs to match its competition in this regard.I've been gone a while and just downloaded the latest xemu, but now it won't play anything. Those tiny handles for the velocities that sit on top of each other. I'm not saying it can't be done in Ableton but it isn't user friendly, and it seems that the world's premier loop player, which I don't have problems with it claiming, would be better at actually cutting the loops from whatever source in I'm trying to cut.īeyond the lack of easy sample cutting, the midi editing is also atrocious. It has the loop function and the selection zone, but there's nothing smooth about the zoom WAY in and out to set the in and out points until the loop is exact. This is good for turning jams into songs, and I used to do this a lot in a stereo editing program, but of course, I want multiple track recording.Ībleton just isn't ergonomic in the edit window. However, I do know that I can't easily cut loops from multiple tracks at once. I freely admit I don't know everything there is to know about setting loop points in Ableton, and it's never been self-evident to me, so I need a link to a guide on that. Since I posted this, I became more familiar with Simpler, which I can use to dump a sample into, and sort of set in points on the fly, and that works to a large extent for a 'Live' performance, and I don't have to cut any samples whatsoever. Generally though, Ableton is a pretty decent Audio Editor, but there are some things that a dedicated editor can do better. Some DAWs make decent editors as well, Pro Tools and Audition started off as Audio Editors so they retain alot of functionality that alot of other DAWs havent focused on, on the audio editing side. I think the big thing though is precision. And Sound Forge even allows me to use VSTs in an offline process, and many of its built-in effects for pitch shifting and such is nice. Wave Editors are usually quicker for these types of editors. Sometimes I like to actually permanently alter an audio file. I would also like to add offline processing of plug-ins. If you need fine editing controls it's just easier. simple cut/paste and edit functions for waveforms

change gains, swap channels, mix to mono, convert between formats and bitrates create much more precise loops and edits easily focus and compare edited and unedited samples Uh, I rattled off a few but I guess there's more: I apologize in advance for such a basic question. Anybody human wrote:If someone could indulge me What are some of the advantages of using a dedicated sample editor?
