Duplicate from impatience.

Perhaps it's something to do with the way the program is wired. Then again, there are several features I figure should be no-brainer that they haven't implemented so... I'd love to be privy to the roadmap discussions.

I've never experienced a file changing after saving. However, I can imagine that real time effects in sufficient number might be sensitive to where you start the song from.

Freeze and flatten all the tracks, then save as another song, then reload and see what happens.

Not a fast CPU, but increasing the buffer size should solve the immediate issue. It will introduce a lot of latency for recording though.

Ah, I did misunderstand. Or more specifically, didn't read it closely enough. That would be nice.

Not a third-party plug-in that isn't happy? Some make noise if they're not registered or the like. Never heard a thud though...

I think Ableton considers that an proprietary artistic privilege. Not arguing against it mind you, but don't hold your breath. There's https://www.livethemes.co. I don't know if it works with the newer versions of Live (I think so) and you're still limited in the number of colors you can use, but th...

I've seen this more often referred to as ghost, linked or replica clips. Personally, I'd go with replicant! A long-standing feature request that could be very handy.

This is because of the way that Live handles clips which are actually windows showing part of what could be a much larger audio file. This allows you to scroll through and adjust the start/end markers. Something I used to do for comping. It could turn into a lengthy mess if you're trying to fit othe...

Duplicate the clip on a new track, select both for editing and you can offset to your heart's content.

Okay, at first thought this might seem to make a lot of sense, as drums don't generally follow a scale. However... I (and many others as I didn't invent the trick) use drum racks in an instrument rack to provide labels for multi-articulation instruments in Kontakt that show where the key switches ar...

If you're only interested in EQ, the Spectrum audio effect will let you see the relative balance of frequencies. As to stereo placement, I seem to remember there being plugins for that, though I can't name any off hand.

How useful tagging is completely depends on the amount of "stuff" you have. If you don't have massive amounts, there are better ways.

The most recent example of these that's been bugging me is that the program doesn't remember the previous zoom level of clips or where you were in editing them. Want to select another clip for comparison, listen to it, then pick up where you left off? Oops, you're right back at the beginning of the ...
