We have been trying to figure out the best way to record our Praise & Worship Team at our church. I will give you some info on what we have.

P&W Team Consists of:
8 Singers
2 Guitar Players both Electric
1 Bass
Drums
Keyboard

Firstly, apologies if this is in the wrong section but I am new to the forum...

I just bought an M-Audio Keystation 49e for my PC and it came with Ableton Live Lite 4 and after visiting the Ableton website I upgraded it to version 7 Lite for free which was marvellous.

it looks as if i will be heading up vocals in a band that i am joining, so i would like to have my sound tailored to me, regardless of where we play. i would like to put together a small, quality rig (rack mount perhaps?) so that i can just give an XLR cable to the sound guy at a gig and tell him to run it my signal dry, and just EQ as needed.

Hey friends,

Ok so I’ve kind of had the Mac or Pc question answered and decided to go for windows because it has loads of software that is compatible.

But what make of computer do we go for? Dell, hp, alien wear or any others you can think of. .

Would be great if you could tell us what you use..I haven’t a clue where to start to get the best price and the most reliability. .

hey guys... can anyone give any recommendations on in ear monitor models ? the ones i have looked at are either WAY to expensive or way to cheap... I'm looking for something in the 300-400US range.. can this sort of money buy something decent?

the in ear monitors will be used by the drummer of my band whilst listening to a click/instruction track during live performances...

Hello my fellow live sound dudes and dudettes ...

hey, I'm just wondering how i can use all 16 pads in Ableton live (as opposed to the 8 offered in the impulse sampler)

ive tried setting 2 midi tracks and such, but my utility software doesent seem to let me split my pads 8-8 into 2 different midi channels.

suggestions?

Disclaimer: the following ideas are based on the fact that I personally consider some of the Romanian live sound engineers as the evolutionary equivalent of a red-ass baboon - 90% of the time, they don't seem to hear the difference between boosting the mids and a clipping input stage. But I digress...

So this is a whole new side of audio to me. I've been loaned a brand new Alesis pad from an endorsee who wants me to be his programmer, problem is I have never worked with midi on my own or anything like this in my life. Now I'm already failing at making this pad work with Ableton. The pad is plugged in and was installed successfully.
