If I had a million dollars I'd probably buy some stuff like this Grado Reference-1 and this Bergmann - Sindre Turntable. It's almost impossible to rip vinyl so that the sound is an equal of the original record. Your 1200 colors the sound, so does your DJ needle. I see what you are saying about not putting any effects or eq on the rip, but saying that you can get the same sound as the original vinyl with (what I assume) are DJ level components is laughable. When you rip vinyl you want all eq flat, etc so it sounds like the original vinyl recording in it's original state.Īdd effects after but not at the rip stage IMOBut you are going to color the recording because most of us just don't use the right kind of needles and turntables when we rip vinyl. I wouldn't add any effects to it during the record, that defeats the point.

See the tutorial for Mac or Windows if you don't know how. If you can't hear anything, check the audio setup. If you have a MIDI controller like a keyboard or drum pads and it's set up correctly, you can now play and should be able to hear the sound.Unless you've changed that, adding a MIDI instrument will automatically arm the track. By default arming is set to exclusive in Live's Preferences > Record/Warp/Launch. This indicates that audio is now routed out of the track, not MIDI data anymore. You will see see that it now has a Track Volume Slider just like audio tracks.
