Are you looking to sync Ableton Live transport with Serato Scratch Live? In that case, you'll want to select to sync to a particular deck - you can find this in the Ableton view in The Bridge, inside Scratch Live.

Greetings,

I've got Live 8.2, Scratch Live 2.1.1, and a Rane SL1.

I've got the Bridge authorized and everything, but I cannot seem to find the "Ableton Transport Control" track that's supposed to be in my SSL's "All" crate.

+1 to everyone who's answered..

I only have one system with Live on it so I've been unable to actually test this. I found it kind of hard to believe that, for some reason .wavs would transfer fine while .mp3s wouldnt.

That makes a lot of sense. I wasn't aware that all mp3s were decoded before you play them. If that's the case, then it makes total sense.

I must be totally wrong, but I thought the .asd files that are generated when you warp an audio file contained info like warp markers, etc. Is this not so true?

I read somewhere that if you warp .wavs, then you can pick up your DJ sets etc and take them to another system without any problems ...
