Hi, An audio clip is associated with a sample, which can be seen by right-clicking on the clip and choosing 'Show in Browser' (or 'Show in Explorer'). I would like to be able to rename the sample according to match the clip name (or vice versa) with a single simple operation, such as a couple of new...

Ah, I should have mentioned, I'm on Windows 10 here. Sorry!

Does anyone know where the folder icon for Ableton Live project folders is located?

Hi. I too am having a problem with my Ableton folder icons and the above is not quite enough information for me to understand how to fix it. In my top-level folder containing various Live project folders, there are several different icon styles shown for different project folders. I have no idea why...

Hi, 'Assign Clip Color to Track' (in the right-click menu for clips) would be very helpful to go along with the existing 'Assign Track Color to Clips' (in the right-click menu for tracks). It's a trip around the bush to have to right-click a clip, carefully examine the color swatches to find the cli...

Below is an example of a simple custom lesson I created with Live 10. The project name is 'Zodiac'. The max width of the Help (Lesson) pane seems to be 584 pixels. Do not exceed that width if you don't want your pictures to be truncated. .tif files worked (SnagIt can create these). .jpg files did no...

Yes, thank you! I comment further for future reference: Setting all clips to launch mode Trigger basically accomplishes my goal here. This effectively makes the scene buttons act like THIS SCENE ALL ON regardless of whichever clips from any rows are currently playing. This allows for "smooth" transi...

Hi, I'm noticing that triggering a Scene toggles the on/off state of all the clips in the Scene. If all the clips are currently Off, then the Scene turns them all On. However, if one/some of the clips are On (e.g. I started the bass clip in the scene before all the others) then triggering the Scene ...

Just taking the color from the first clip of the scene ... Yes, I was surprised by this too. I'm using Launchpad Pro myself, and had initially thought to set my own color for Group buttons, to indicate specifically that they ARE Group buttons. Clips OTOH I wish to color by instrument type (drums, b...

Another question is: If I must put the percussion on a different row, can I DISABLE the scene button for that row (as I never want to fire off all that percussion all together at once)?

Hi, In Ableton Live 10, is it possible to have, say, 8 clips in a row (to make a scene) but to only have the scene button toggle the first 4 clips on/off while the last 4 clips remaining unaffected by the scene toggle? The goal in this case is to have percussion clips related to a particular scene b...

Hi, I am trying to use Live 10 to record audio, slice it into 4 measure loops, and make those loops into clips that I can trigger from my Launchpad Pro. I need the loops to be cleanly and accurately cut. Ultimately there will be a great many of these and so I need a procedure that is as efficient as...

I'll add here a copy of a request I made in the Feature Wishlist section: "Ability to record/save ALL MIDI data (all event types), filtering only when/if specifically directed to do so by me." Seems simple enough (both conceptually and technically) ... As it is, I'm doing almost all my work elsewher...

IMO, Live very much needs the ability to record/save ALL MIDI data (all event types), filtering only when/if specifically directed to do so by me.

FWIW, my biggest need from Live: Multi-Channel MIDI recording and MIDI file import into individual clips. IOW, one clip can hold many MIDI channels and I can send all those channels back out to whatever internal or external device (virtual or physical sound module) I wish . I speculate that perhaps ...

I would find it very helpful if there were a way to auto-slice a .wav file (as dragged into the arrange view) into a set of clips to wind up in the Session view. Two ways - 1. Slice into clips at the locator points. After marking/slicing a first file, subsequent files could be dragged in onto differ...
