Re: XL-7 + Laptop = Live PA ??

2003-08-19 by adz32

I was originally thinking of doing it this way, but the idea of 
having everything as a pre-recorded loop seems really un-live... I 
want to be able to tweak as much as possible in realtime. That way 
you have as much control over the music (and the crowd) as possible.
BUT - I do agree it would be safest just to render everything. 

> My advice in live use would be this .
> Render any Reaktor voices and other softsynths to audio on the HD 
itself.
> Transfer all of them over for use in Abelton live.
> Use the Laptop running Albelton Live + the Command Station (never 
underestimate the power of an Electribe or two in alive set with a 
laptop either) .
> Keep it as simple and as CPU underloaded as possible and you should 
not have any problems.
