Emu XL-7 & MP-7 User's Group

Because Live lets you assign and use plug ins for the audio tracks, you'll 
still be able to tweak your parts if you want.  The included plug ins 
alone are very CPU light, and stable too.  If you really want to get the 
most out of that kind of set up, you could infact assign almost everything 
on the XL-7 to control Live.  I set it up so that the key pads were muting 
and unmuting tracks, Triggers would select new parts etc.  You could do an 
entire laptop based set without ever touching the laptop itself with that 
program. 

A lot of people seem to forget that aside from being a really great synth 
and sequencer, the XX-7's are also very nice control surfaces too.  :)

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.

> 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.
