Sequencing with Ableton Suite 8
Hi all - back after 7 years absence from this forum and a new set-up - Ableton Suite 8, to which Im attempting to connect and work with my trusty 2002 Access Virus KC.
So far I seem to be getting MIDI notes in and out of the Virus via Ableton MIDI tracks, but when getting to mixing stage I cant control the Virus volume via the Ableton mixer/DAW and have to adjust volume manually on the Virus hardware. Also I cant get any Ableton effects to apply to the Virus MIDI tracks..
I suspect a basic routing problem/mistake - can anyone help me wiht some best practie here to get the Virus working better , to enable automation, recording of filter sweeps etc into the sequencer - Im trying to use the Ableton Live External Instrument plug-out but not sure if this is the best workaround - routing Virus MIDI into one of these doesnt seem to be feeding audio back in if thats what its supposed to do...
