Work arounds for model samples not triggering first hit in Ableton

[behalfnoise]

I can’t get Ableton to trigger the first hit with model samples. Any work arounds for this?

I had a model cycles that did that, if I hit stop twice on the hardware it’d always hit the first beat again.

There is some useful info in this thread.

Model samples and ableton live first step drop

How do you enable the MS as a slave? I am new to the MS and want it to start playing whenever I press the ‘play’ button in Ableton Live. Thanks!

I had a similar issue with my Octatrack (acting as Master) triggering the first hit on the MS. The solution I found here on the forums (and which seems to work nicely) is to simply nudge over the microtiming to the right by the smallest amount.

Usually it’s a kick and maybe a lead sound that fall on the first hit for my patterns…so I just bump it over 1/384th if needed. It doesn’t audibily impact the timing, and works every time.

Still - seems like a common issue that needs a bug fix.

I’ll be damned. This seems to work pretty consistently for me. Fingers crossed.
