You probably got that from Ableton calling it the sample editor a little confusing no doubt. Good tips here.

Not solved for me in Ableton Live 9.7 Suite, I get this pop up every time in OS 10.12.3 Sierra. I have removed it from my keychain and deleted preferences and after every restart it asks me for this before I can open Ableton.

Thanks for this post, that is so much better, just downloaded and tried it out. That is the way I would expect it to work, very nice update!

I have Fixed Length set to on and have set different lengths and regardless when I go to record into ...

I guess no one has any idea how to do this, I purchased a push 2 controler and figured out you can do this by pressing the delete key and then pressing the clip you want to remove. I wish there was a way to do this on the Akai APC20.
