Can this act as a midi editor/mixer where you can play a midi and in real time as it's playing adjust volumes and instrument types etc? I have the old yamaha XGS (or something like that) midi mixer but it has never worked right since i've had windows 7. But I don't want to bother registering and all that to get this ableton if it won't do what i need. Thanks

Hi oczad,

Thanks for your inquiry. Yes, Ableton Live should function in the manner that you are describing. In regard to the specific MIDI hardware you are mentioning, you may want to do a bit of research and/or confirm that it is capable of being programmed and/or controlled in the way that you want (if you have not already). But I would urge you to get the Live software installed and check things out. It is an outstanding DAW, particularly in the area of MIDI capabilities. And please let us know if we can assist further.

Best Regards,

Alan

I did install it since i posted this, but i could not for the life of me figure out how to load a midi file in it so i just uninstalled it. Very NON intuitive app.

Hi oczad,

I'm sorry that it did not work out for you. It may be worth taking a look on the Ableton Forums or perhaps You Tube to see if others have done what you wanted to do, and if so how they did it. Unfortunately, from our end, Live is a bundled third party app. So we are not able to dive far into the extended feature set in terms of support. But best of luck in finding a solution for this specific task. And please let us know if we can assist further with anything else. Thanks.

Best Regards,

Alan
