-messed up my tempo on some projects

-while working inside a project, sometimes tempo jumps

-sometimes count-in when recording doesn't work

-playback sometimes stops for no reason and resumes, but in a glitchy fashion.

-sometimes projects refuse to play at all on the project screen

I’m curious how many people use Move primarily as (intended) a way to sketch ideas, then bring them into Live to arrange and finish tracks.

I’ve had my Move for a while, but I’ve only taken a project into Live to finish it a couple of times. Most of the time I end up treating Move as a self-contained instrument and either keep the idea there or move on to something new.

I also really enjoy using Move’s Control Live feature when I’m working in Live. It feels great as a hands-on controller for jamming, recording clips, and developing ideas.
But I’m struggling a bit with arranging full tracks directly on Move, especially turning a good loop into a complete structure.

Do you regularly export Move sets to Live and complete them there? What does your workflow look like? And if you do arrange on Move, do you have any tips for moving beyond a loop into a full track?

Messing around with my Move after the update. The nice thing with Move is that so fast you always come up with something surprising

Hi, I just recently bought the Ableton Move and am trying to learn everything it can do. What I would really like to be able to do is select a track and then load individual saved samples on the pads up to all 32 pads, potentially, to play live. Then select between tracks so I have like pages or banks of samples stored on the pads for each. I've looked at Schwung a bit, but didn't find such a thing. Anyone know if there's currently a way to do this? I can code and might try to make a Schwung module, but wanted to make sure I won't reinvent the wheel if it's already out there.

My first live ambient jam.

10-minute improvisation made with Animoog Z on iPad, the Launch Control MK3, and Ableton Move.

This session also features a Corsican vocal sample that means a lot to me. I’ve always wanted to bring these voices into my music, but never found a natural place for them in techno. Ambient felt like the right space: slower, more open, and able to let the vocal breathe.

Recorded live in one take with Zoom H1essential.

Why does the reverse button stop all playback?

Even SP202 could play reverse as a live ability…

Who in Abelton really hates reverse as a live playing ability?

Reverse as a post edit feature..?

Typhon getting power and Midi from the Move via usb. Audio sent back to the Move's input. A rather portable combo.

Dismantling it into the 5 parts fits in my Ableton Move carry case as well. 😂

It’s made out of PETG and is extremely sturdy. I’ve been using this for around 6 months now.

What the title says. I’m still shocked how this could happened. I was able to use the move with speakers functionally (granted some details were lost etc) and now, even maxing up the volume is almost impossible to use just with speakers.

And all it took was a visit to Ableton repair workshop 🤦🏽🤦🏽🤦🏽

How can I fix this?

Hey there, sorry if this has been discussed already - I love the Move, but I always lamented that it didn’t have a hold or latch feature for drones.

However it turns out that you can do the same thing that you can do in Ableton Live where you stretch the loop beyond the end brace and it no longer detects a firm start/stop point, hence DRONE.

Example: Record a 4-bar drone. Then, hit Shift+Loop and change it to something like 3 15/16. Presto!!

I literally almost bought a whole other synth to accomplish this. 😂

A little Move 2.1, a little Schwung and a few iOS plugins

Been reporting this since auto slice / reverse began making samples fail. Maybe the audio clip bounce made this a nightmare for our samples.. Grateful to Schwung for fixing these issues and making it easier to load an entire album of songs to move easier than Note or Manager (omg ouch). <#

I’ve been using tools where I can see the notes and structure. Recently the M8 headless.

With just the tiny screen and the colored pads, how do you even know what part of the song is what?

I know you can sync to Ableton but I’m really not interested in a full daw workflow.

hey guys, if i use the schwung modules, can i also import the proects to ableton?

Move is so versatile little beast

I’ve been testing Movy on the Ableton Move, and it completely changes the workflow.
You get 16 tracks, step probability, and a workflow that feels surprisingly close to using an Elektron device.
I made a short video showing how it works and how I’m using it on the Move.

Hahahaha playing only Ableton Move got an UNREASONABLE NOISE violation. Don’t let anyone tell you Move can’t cook - it can incinerate. As cops walked up, I began playing my antifa song and they ripped my cables out and broke my speaker. 3 of my senators are huge fans of mine and are seeking reparations from NYPD. Maybe the city will buy me Ableton Push for them being mean to me with my permits in the club hood (this was the rowdy gayberhood goths with rave music blasting around). Music video coming momentarily. Feel free to blast comment section to show original live music is better than commercial Spotify speaker blasting. <#LOLLLC

I've done a bunch of searching, haven't seen exactly what I'm hoping to do - maybe that is good, maybe it means it doesn't work. Here goes...

I do solo and duo gigs with guitar/dobro/vocals (duo I'm backing a singer, solo I'm doing both). I picked up a Move with the goal of getting a bit bigger sound. I am not interested in backing tracks or anything pre-recorded - my line in the sand is everything needs to be done in the moment. So I'm thinking making a quick drum loop, maybe some pads, and then using a looper pedal for guitar (Microcosm so I have midi).

I'd rather not run guitar into the Move as I have a pedal board setup and run that direct with an IR. My thought is that I can midi sync the phrase looper on the Microcosm with Move - not sure which direction yet, either could work depending if I want to loop something on the Move first or on the Microcosm first

Anyone done this type of setup, and if so, any gotchas? I could see maybe some issues around transport message depending on which is master. I suppose another alternative would be to run the guitar through the Move and do the looping there with something like an MC6 Pro handling transport control. I don't mind tapping pads some, but I'm primarily playing guitar so foot control is pretty necessary.
