I haven't used Audacity for sooooo many years. But it might have an option to "save to original file" or something like this.

Yeah, it "magically" appears back in place of your clip. Just make sure to save your edits in Audacity first. Thank you! That is the part I can't figure out. Every time I try and save it tells me "Save Project" is for an Audacity Project, not an audio file." Any idea what I...

I am confused by the concept that Audio clips only contain references to samples on disk (rather than the

In section 5.2 of the manual (Sample Files) it talks about Live how Live can "combine uncompressed mono or stereo samples of any length, sample rate or bit depth without prior conversion." Does anyone know what this means or where I can find information on how to figure it out? Thank you! ...

Can anyone explain editing a referenced sample in the File Manager? It mentions using an external application but I don't quite get what that means, why you would need to edit a sample outside of Live or even what my options for an external application would be. Help is very much appreciated! Thank ...

Hey everyone
I am having a hard time figuring out the difference between the Save As command and the Save a Copy command. Is this a question of computer hierarchy or a question of Ableton hierarchy? Help distinguishing this would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
