Ableton pitch envelope dilemma

Post by hysteriaa » Mon Jun 04, 2012 12:39 am

Okay, so i make a bass, then i go to envelopes and mess with the pitch bend.

Then i play it back, and bam no pitch bend even though i clearly just made changes in the envelope.

What am i doing wrong, i cant seem to figure it out..

And turn up the envelope % amount so that it's registering how much is affected

First idea - check if pitch bend is enabled in your synth and set up its range.

Lol he's obviously new... If the pitch bend is on a MIDI clip, most of the time you have to enable the pitch bend in the vst itself. If the pitch bend is on an audio clip, you don't have to do anything.

Then you have to enable the pitch bend inside massive itself. Its on one of those tabs above where all the LFO's and ENV's are, can't remember exactly which one as of right now.

Just looked, it's in the tab labeled OSC right above "1ENV".
