Something like Agent.
I record in session view. Use a click/cue track or tracks, and always record on the first session.
After each take, drag the takes "somewhere".
Audition.
Any takes I want to keep, I create a track for in a group and drag the take to it in Arrangement view.
Takes I don't want ...

I ended up with a project that played nicely from Ableton. But when rendering it to a wav file, there were some vst instrument glitches. They appeared at exactly the same places each time.
I tried increasing buffer size to no avail.
I did not try freezing the tracks, which is said to, and makes ...

Correct - I used the built-into-Mixbus Jack. I'm assuming using a separate Jack server, I could route any way I want, though I've never had that be as stable (windows 8 PC). It works, but seems to crash every few hours.

Update, now that I've messed around for a few days.
It is kind of cool (whether it's nice or just a cool feature depends on what you want to do) that you can route tracks back and forth between Live and Mixbus. The only limitation is that only Mixbus has access to the system playback device, so to ...

I'm new to all this. I'm really liking Live. I've found the biggest thing I wish it had is a good editor, including such things as actual one-track cross fades. I can do a lot of editing in Live, but it falls down eventually.
So, in seeing this Mixbus thing, I checked it out, saw they had a $20 "no ...

I've never used it, but there is this vst: http://www.silverspike.com/?Products:TapeIt
It purports to create a wav file for whatever signal it's getting in a plugin chain.

If I'm understanding your problem correctly, one solution may be to use locators.
Set a locator where you want to start playback.
If you right click on the locator, there's an option to "Set Song Start Time Here".
Now, whenever you start playback, it will start at that locator.
Obviously, you can ...

This might not be quite the same thing you're talking about, but here goes:
Just record (either with or without a click).

Then, set your recorded clip as the master tempo (in the clip properties).

Now, you can go back and warp your recording to the grid. This can be a little bit tedious, but once ...

I'm not sure this answers any specific questions, but it's pretty easy to make a stereo panning knob with an audio rack and two utility devices mapped to the same macro knob on the rack. There may be some details it doesn't handle, but it works pretty well in many cases.

Here's my notes on a snare roll:

- Multiple velocity to simulate the bounce of drum sticks - mentioned above.
- Add a Groove to randomize the timing quite a lot (~32%). Audition it as you adjust the groove values until it sounds "right".
- Randomize the velocity some (~16%)
- Global 100%
