resources than running a single program.
28.2.1 Running Live in ReWire Master Mode
The step-by-step procedure for sending MIDI to and receiving audio from a ReW ire slave
program is presented in the routing chapter.
28.2.2 Running Live in ReWire Slave Mode
In ReWire slave mode, Live can both receive MIDI from, but also send audio to the master
application. All of Live's MIDI tracks are accessible to the master application as destinations
for MIDI signals, and all of its audio tracks and MIDI tracks containing instruments are
accessible as audio sources.
If you have not used Live yet, please launch Live so that it can install its ReWire engine in
your system.
Live will run in ReWire slave mode if it detects a running ReWire master application upon
startup. Therefore, always start the ReWire master application rst, and then start Live.
Likewise, you will rst have to quit Live, then the ReWire master application.
Live's operation in ReWire slave mode differs from the usual operation in some regards:
Live will not have direct access to the audio interfaces; audio input/output is handled
by the ReWire master application. No audio input will be available to Live.
The sample rate is determined by the host application rather than by Live.
External synchronization will be disabled (synchronize to the ReWire master application
instead). Live will not send sync or controller messages to the MIDI output. Controlling
Live via MIDI is still possible.
Live will not act as a ReWire master application. For instance, you cannot run Rebirth
as a ReWire slave of Live while Live is running as a ReWire slave of Cubase. You can,
however, run both Live and Rebirth as ReW ire slaves of Cubase at the same time.
