Thank you all. I think what I'm trying to do seems like a new feature more than anything else.

Using the crossfader can allow me to switch from any scenes to my ending with the pickup (I has to be in one audio file and must launch the clip not the scene it's in) although I wish I could only press ...

unlinking the envelopes is only necessary if this is for a looping sample

as soon as playback begins on the second clip (in the scene beneath) - then it's envelope will be controlling the audio -

so---- try making one envelope for each clip - the first starts at 100% volume and ends somewhere in ...

Also, for overlapping two scenes look into legato mode and follow actions in Clip properties, that should get you rolling-

I see what you are talking about. Legato basically resume playing the next clip at the same position it was in the previous clip, right? Combined with ...

The inconsistency I was witnessing with the scene launch was due to the fact that I was expecting Live to "play in four bars", if quantization was set to 4 bar but it is not like that. The global quantize tells clips to be launched against the global bars count. It is absolute. Means that if it is ...

One more: relative quantize for clip and scene launch

I was just told by support that "the global quantize tells clips to be launched against the global bars count. It is absolute. Means that if it is set to "4 bars", and you launch a clip on bar 3 of the global bars count, the clip will play only ...

You should check out unlinked envelopes (unlinked volume envelopes specifically are useful for pickups, fade outs) and also mix this with removing stop buttons (Command or Apple - e) -- so clips don't stop.

That sounded promising, it's close but still not quite what I want it to do. That ...

- Envelop clips (so you could add an envelop, fx etc. to an audio clip for example that would keep playing uninterrupted)

- Customizable scene crossfade

- Option to see a countdown window that would cue when the next scene or clip will be triggered

Thank you all for your replies.

I've been experimenting with the global quantize as well as launch quantize but I'm finding it rather inconsistent and it's not always triggering the way it should. I'm running 5.2 maybe there is something wrong with my install.

I haven't figured out how to do ...

I'm a newbie. I've gone thru all the tutorials and I've got a good idea on how things work. Basically I'm want to use Live to prototype interactive music for video games. One thing I'm not clear is how and where do I set the rules for scene triggers. When I trigger a scene I'd like to specify when ...
