[Feature Request]: AUv3 plugin support
I have some really good instruments on my phone that I can't use with Note because not only does it not host plugins, but it also doesn't support Inter-App Audio (IAA) or midi.

Individual input selection and arming of audio tracks
I went to set up a set with 2 audio tracks that I wanted to recieve input from the two audio channels linked over from the Move so I could route the audio to my interface.
Unfortunately, every time I set the input on the track, it changes all the tracks inputs to the same thing. There is apparently ...

Re: Classic problem: I have recorded many tracks with real tempo not aligned on Ableton tempo...
This is a classic for sure. Wish there was a method that was more controllable, but this is the best I've found:
- Save the recorded audio to your computer.
- open a new set
- tap out the tempo in the new set as you listen to the audio.
- set the time signature in the set if it's not 4/4.

Lock Arm and Focus to a Track in Control Live Mode
I primarily use the Move in Note Mode to play a single instrument at a time.
Even though I have the Move selected in the midi input of the track I want, if I select an audio track, the move just goes blank and won't send notes to the armed track. If I select a midi track, it follows focus, but ...

Re: Map movement of an audio effect rack macro to MIDI CC output
I have encountered this conundrum before and you inspired me to finally do something about it.
I imagine you already have Pitch and Time Machines . If not go get that.
I copied the "Max Midi Sender" device into an audio patch and added a 1-127 mappable knob and CC controller number:

Re: Here's a theme for Ableton's user manuals! Sticky sidebar navigation + dark mode.
Yes dark mode saves your eyes at night but a lot of folks have trouble seeing without it.
Ableton Sans is pretty sweet. If I'm gonna be a font nerd though I think it could use some tweaking (like differentiating letter O and number 0). A sprinkle of Atkinson Hyperlegible wouldn't hurt.

Dark Mode Forever.
Brand continuity + accessibility improvement.
Why can't this just be the default for all ableton websites?

More details about your setup would help. What computer and operating system? Try resetting live.

Re: Undo getting buried by automation...
Hooray I think I read this and forgot, thank you.
I think I get why it would be difficult to separate automation from the undo chain (for the same reasons as time travel I guess)...
It would be insane and amazing if undo could be sandboxed and on a track/device/automation/clip level so that when ...

Undo getting buried by automation...
Nobody likes losing work, that's why they created undo.
But I find myself for the umpteenth time effectively not having undo because it's buried in a billion automation actions from usually my max patches. Hold down the undo and hope after a minute or two it gets back to it...

More Global Launch Quantization Options
Global launch quantization is limited when working with not that unusual time signatures.
I have a latin beat in 12/8 and to have the launch quantization set to a quarter of a bar, you have to do a workaround (like set the global time signature to 4/4 and set quantization to 1 quarter note instead ...

Capture Midi Arm Button on Each Midi Track?
Capture midi is one of Ableton's best features and deserves some attention. A lot of us have made great music with it, but also faced the frustration of losing a lot of content because it didn't work as expected.
The main complaints I read involve the wrong tracks being captured. I find it ...
