    You can actually get around this by using the mratio plugin (free), grouping it into a rack, setting its crossfade mode to linear and having the sidechain input be whatever the signal was before the rack. Then just put any effect(s) you want to dry wet before the mratio in the same rack. Though i do agree the difference in volume isn't that huge of a deal with just doing it through the ableton chain crossfade method

      The crossfade curve for two fully correlated and fully uncorrelated signals is different, and I would also assume they picked the wrong one, as dry wet signals should be generally highly corellated. The difference should I believe come out to 3db. Whether this line of reasoning applies to this case, or whether they actually mismapped the knobs, I can't judge.

    One feature I would love to have in Live is the ability to edit mapping curves, not just min and max values. They could add different fading curves similar to the ones in the crossfader, but they would not account for complex rack setups. Having a mapping curve tool would make fixing stuff like this and adding much more functionality to devices really easy. There are M4L tools like SMART that allow you to do it, but I'd love it if it was native.

    decibels is a scaling system so a 6db increase (or decrease) is equivalent to doubling (or halving) of the signal. we use decibels because that's more similar to the way we hear. this isn't an ableton issue. it's just how decibels work. if you have 2 tracks playing the exact same thing the volume will be 6db louder. Decibels are a logarithmic scale so you could try an set a logarithmic curve for the dry/wet mix and it might fix it, but the volume sliders are already dBs so they "should" be scaled like that already (that would then make it an ableton problem. lol)

    I’ve been aware of this problem for about 6 months now and the best solution I had regarding this involved third-party plugins. Free plugins, but third-party nonetheless.
    I used two Kilohearts “Gain” plugins, making sure to set their mode to linear/percentage-based. Setting everything else up is the same as making the typical dry-wet knob in Ableton.
    Also, a bit of a side note, but you can type in decimal values far past the one’s place. I tried making my own poor-man’s comb filter with the Ableton delay (so that I could remove the even-harmonics of a sound) and ultimately found that I could type to something like the ten-millionths place (7 decimal values down) on a macro knob/Ableton effect without it actually rounding (only visually). I guarantee that you can type something even smaller in, but I never really went much past 7 decimal values ‘cause I didn’t need to.

    @TjMoon91 2 роки тому +1

    This is not a problem, at all.
    It’s actually what you want with a mix control.
    It’s only 3db louder if you fade between two identical signals. In reality, when you combine two different audio signals, you’re going to get phase differences, which will result in a signal quieter than if you simply doubled either of the signals.
    The variance in level depends hugely on the type of processing being mixed in, so it’s impossible to know how to compensate with a mix knob, but I’m sure that 3db was a very conscious decision by Ableton.
    Seems like a reasonable one to me.

    This isn't a bug, it's called a constant power fade and is used all the time in audio. In most cases it sounds like a smooth transition in perceived loudness but in this example it has a 3dB boost in the middle because the signals are the exact same and don't undergo the destructive interference that would usually balance out the boost. That said it wouldn't be the worst idea for Ableton to add a constant gain fade option for specific use cases.

    Yeah, audio waves can not be simply added together in dB space. What you hear is pressure (measured in Pascal or bar), but because this pressure ranges over multiple magnitudes (think like 0.0001 to 1000 Pa(scal)), you generally use dB (take the logarithm, with a reference pressure and some other stuff to make it all nice). When you want to add audio waves correctly, you have to transform into the pressure domain, add there and transform back to dB.
