Mandala Drum Forums

lol, yeah I do. Unfortunately there are two things that really aggravate me - Video Editing, and hunting for interference in an audio signal. So, I've got some cool Mandala V3 vids, but they are like bottom of the barrel as far as social media quality goes.

Conceptually, is there any way Max for Live (or maybe even the V3 utility) could turn the surface of a Mandala into an XY pad? Obviously, it would lack corners on the standard way we think about x and y axis. I was just thinking...I've never seen a freestanding XY Pad device that also has Aftertouch ...

Awesome!

I'm not bad with Battery. Not a beginner - but I'm still learning new things every time I use it. It's such an awesome program.

What else are you trying to figure out?

I don't know what you know and what you don't know....so forgive me if I mention something you've already mastered. Also...my last name is Luke, so now matter how hard you tried, you're still getting help from a Luke.

Slide is unlike the note triggers. Let's talk about battery. Battery is a sampler ...

Hey there,

This isn't a hardcore road-rugged case, but it helps with the transport between my studio and bandmates' houses. It's just a soft shell beer cooler I found on amazon. The dimensions were tricky to find an instrument-intended case, so this is what I ended up with.

I cut up the styrofoam ...

After downloading and unzipping, clicking on the file itself says "This device is not available in this version of Live". I have Live 12 Intro. Anyway around that?

This is really cool, Stuart! I had wanted to achieve the same thing, and set up a slide on/off switch on Ableton, using a macro dial for volume of the effect.

But being able to delay it would be perfect! When you call this a Ableton Rack - is it a Max for ...

There's a couple different ways. Have you tried this yet:

Perhaps the easiest in battery would be to have a single sample, let's say on C3. Then on the Modulation tab, select Modulation source (First drop down) as MIDI CC#, and select the CC number you have assigned to Position. Then on the second ...

Ah, thank you! I totally forgot about Round Robin. What you said about applying midi velocity to samples that gradually increase in amplitude makes total sense.

I had some success turning down the "velocity to volume" knob to about 50%, in addition to setting up a round robin. Thank you!

Hey everyone! Has anyone had some awesome success with an accurate snare responsivity? Nice, even doubles, present ghost notes, subtle buzz rolls, not over-triggering the highest velocity? I am using Battery 4, and I just can't seem to iron out the kinks. With all the data points available, seems ...
