Mono Out + Ableton Live

Post by fmoura » Fri Jul 11, 2008 6:34 pm

Also, I found out that, once I change the INSTRUMENTS OUT from stereo to mono on (about > settings), and I route that out to an audio track in Ableton Live 7, the audio that comes from the nepheton is still in stereo. Why?

Thanks again,
Felipe.

Hi

I'm not sure if there's possible to route mono track in Live from ANY VST, if You could point me VST instrument which has possibility to send mono track I'm going to investigate it. Thank You in advance.

Best regards,
Sebastian

The only reason I asked was because in Nepheton's manual it says that I can have all instruments out in mono.....

And it works as far as I know, eg Cubase (it shows them as a mono tracks and processes only single signal path), but unfortunatelly I don't know how does it work in Ableton Live, so I'd need any other VSTi to compare ... but I've already remembered - NI Battery (it's possible to configure outs as a mono), I'll check it tomorrow in office :)

Best regards,
Sebastian

Hey,

I've just checked Battery under Ableton Live 7, and it behaves as Nepheton does. Seems that Live doesn't indicate if any channel is mono or stereo (I mean VSTi's output). When I configured Battery's output to mono, in Live I had the same stereo VU meter, Nepheton acts exactly. The only hint for me was the name of output with "mono" postfix, which was set by Battery, not by Live.

Best regards,
Sebastian
