TR-09 & Ableton Live workflow tips 

Thanks for the video to fresh up my mind. I remember when i got it new, i was really confused about these grouped USB outputs. You have to group the sounds into 4 groups. Group 1: kick, 2: toms, 3: high hats + crash and ride. 4: snare, clap, rim shot or put snare or clap in the same group like the kick. I wish i got 2 more channels. i don't know why Roland limits the TR-09 - sepatae it ftom the big TR-8 AIRA. At my TR-8 there was no limit. You got all intruments in separate channels and don't need to group them. Maybe Roland wants to push me to buy another TR-09 to have 8 channels in total;-)

Great video

Many thanks for these tips! What about midi notes recorded in a Live clip? When I play back the clip it will send midi notes to the TR but the TR sequencer is also playing, hence duplicated notes. How to avoid this if I want to send midi messages from de TR to Live?

how can i make 32 steps pattern?

I use a J5 Create 7-port USB to link my boutiques straight to my laptop(no mixer) and have been using Garage Band(at the moment) and one thing I have found is if I turn off power to my boutiques in a certain way(?) or shut the laptop screen down then I lose the connection from the Boutiques drivers(usually the TR-08 and 09) to the Apple Audio MIDI Setup; so initially I would re-install the drivers in order to make them work again...Later I discovered I could just re-start the laptop and it would work again without installing the drivers every time. As far as what you call "sound doubling" I always check ✔️ the "Drift Control" box for all Boutiques within the created "Aggregate Device" in Audio MIDI Setup which usually keeps the clocks in synch...if not they will fall off regardless of MIDI connections. I have also noticed that if I leave the Garage Band session open but use Safari to surf the internet in a new window that when I return to GB there is, once again, a trigger delay(latency) or "sound doubling" between the Boutiques and the software program. I have found that if I un-check ✔️ the "Use" boxes in Audio MIDI Setup then re-check ✔️ the "Use" boxes along with re-checking ✔️ "Drift Control" then I hit

It's great hooking up the TR-09 to Live with 4 channels but if you cannot to MX-1 mixer there is no audio. The MX-1 midi clock only activates play/stop on the TR-09. Only useful if connected directly to the DAW. If you just want the stereo out on the TR-09 you have to use a stereo lead back into the MX-1. I was hoping there was some firmware that can allow the usb audio to travel into the MX-1 because it travels fine into a DAW but not the MX-1 itself. Have you achieved this? thanks

Very well explained. What video capture card did you use and why do you think it failed? thanks.

How can I apply effects in real-time without the doubling of the sound .The effect can be applied when you turn on monitoring and that is what gives you the doubling sound. How can I only hear the monitored sound and not the sound from the TR09

Hey mate, you talk about the issue of latency when recording audio. I have this exact problem, I cannot get any of my boutique's to sync with ableton's metronome have tried for weeks now every option people have suggested, but still have a small lag at the start of my recordings :(

What's Appleton live and Meedee?

Works with MAC...okay... but i use PC with Studio One and Cubase. There is NO Way to get USB-Audio and use my Audio-Interface. Audio-Settings, i can only select one single Audio-Device. It isnt possible to select my Audio-Interface for Main-Output AND select the TR-09 for Input !

That screen recording was horrible 😵‍💫 On the Mac, try Screenflow, just saying ...
