Is anyone using live sync from 2.7 in Ableton? I can see the leader and follower, but the follower is not doing anything on mine?

See if this one works any better. Change only the receiving instruments.

Hi, just replying to my own topic lol. I worked out how to get both sync to work in Ableton and multi out! Its a bit fiddly, but not too hard to get working. As I make videos about scaler, I thought I´d make one about how to use it with Ableton, you can use a template as below, but this way you can learn to set it up yourself. I had to do the video quickly just to get it out, but hopefully it is helpful.

hey no problem, see my reply below, with my video link, should show you how to set it up, any questions, add to video so I can share the responses with other viewers.

Hey Vince, I just checkout out your video but it is not splitting the actual voices is it (the whole chord is being sent out all channels)? Unless I am mistaken, and I have a Certified Ableton Trainer working in-house here that it is not possible at all unless using patchworks.

I thought it was, i might have to listen to it again. To my ears repro was playing single notes and not chords. Let me check.

Hi all!
Same here.
It wont work with playing Keys, & sometimes my Ableton freeze.

This was made with Ableton 11.
Can you make some for Ableton 10?

Update on this: I found the solution is to set the input on the “child tracks” to In as opposed to AUTO. Now it is working, YEAH.

Doh

so this is cool, but IAC only works on MAC, I found a free way to do it on PC, ill post the video further below.

so just for info, yes my initial video did not solve the multi out problem with Ableton, but I did find a FREE workaround, so hopefully that can help

So today I finally got Scaler 2.7 multi output to work in Ableton, albeit its a workaround, and not perfect, but at least its free - check this out! https://youtu.be/fYXXkJQj_o4

Looks good, I think I give this a try later this week

let me know how it goes!

I find this is too complex for me to use so back to Reaper for multi out, but Live Sync works really well.

Not bad. I’m not on Windows but there are a few devices like this on Mac that work a treat. Nice to see there are some on Windows as well. Looks cool Vince!

i agree its a little complex, but if you manage to do it, you only need to set it up once and it will always work

I have no problem setting up live sync in ableton by changing the input, however I’ve had it a number of times now where ableton freezes or crashes when you then go back into one of the Scalers and drag your midi out on to the channel you want the instrument to play. Note - this crash only ever happens when live sync is engaged.

Hi @PaulR

I have not had any issues like this with running 3 or 4 Scalers in Ableton Live. The main issue appears to be around midi routing in Ableton.

Can you clarify how many instances of Scaler are you running simultaneously, and your hardware configuraion: cpu and RAM, please? I am wondering if there is a memory issue.

4 Scalers. 4 instruments on their own midi tracks routed to each Scaler. All working fine until I want to drag the midi out to one of the instrument channels.

Thank you! This fixed it for me. That In/Auto/Off section is my Kryptonite.
