Technical support
Need help with setting up or other technical issues?
Greetings! I'm new to the forums and was looking for some help regarding some of the hardware I'm trying to use with Ableton Live 9 Lite.I've had mild success getting my Novation Circuit to work with Live, however I cannot find much help that is relevant to my specific question which I will post below. I am both new to Ableton Live 9 and the Novation Circuit.
My question is: When I have sessions already recorded and saved onto your Novation Circuit already set up with drum tracks and synths that I have programmed, is it possible to simply have Ableton Live 9 detect the settings from the session I've already created without having to set up every synth and drum track again in Ableton Live 9? In effect, can I simply use Ableton Live 9 to record what I've already made on the Circuit and export that into a digital file without any further set up?
Any help is appreciated, and as I said, there aren't many posts even on Youtube or any other forum I've found about the Circuit, I really can't find much information
