found the issue
The micro action was being added to the undo list whenever I switched focus away to another application away and then back to Ableton. Once it was added, the undo actions previous to it could not be accessed.

One track had a max midi device that could not found. If I deleted or ...

*n/m*

Does anyone recognise which max device could be killing the undo?

M4L devices in session:
fx: NTPD2, NTPD, Pomodoro, Cartographer, Swatches, BoP, Rolling Sampler, ClipGain 2.0, Elephant Filter, LFO, Convolution Reverb Pro
instruments: Superberry

assuming its a max for live device that is

yes lol. just an menu-option to toggle the vertical lines please.

Thanks but the knob-controller is not remote controlling ableton, as it's controlling VSTi UI parameters via midi C (ie the mapping is handled by the VSTi, not by ableton). So users creating their own custom control scripts isn't a workaround, the problem remains.

Moreoever, it's also a massive ...

losing another session to this today. The problem is that if you try to have an instrument exclusively recieve input by one dedicated midi-device, you will have a sonic mess when you play that midi-device if any other instrument is set to the standard "All-In" while monitoring for input, as you ...

People just learn to lose many hours of their life to working around these basic problems, because Ableton's GUI is so intentionally minimal lol. It's ironic how cluttered the workarounds end up being.

Im looking up how to map a foot pedal to "launch the selected clip" so I can record loops hands-free in to the session view.

And I'm discovering that you still can't do it.

Ive been wanting to leave ableton over this for 15 years.
That max for live device doesnt fix it.

Ableton pride themselves on the app being inclusive, or striving to be, but lack of score undermines this.

A kid who's had a few piano lessons is familiar with musical notation. Early music learners should be able to pick up making music with Ableton. The misconception is that score is for ...

yeah Id like to know this too

I'm working to video rn, I hit stop when I see happens on video, and I want to drop a locator(marker) or paste a clip at the current playhead position. Can't do it.

Live 12.1.5
seems to have just started today. anyone else had this?

update: found the cause, it happens when a certain max for live device is enabled ("Dim Solo")

Yeah this is driving me crazy right now.

Everytime I try to find a max for live device or sample that I moved after tidying my actual User Library), the "Manage Files" panel searches every folder in "Places" and brings up dozens of candidates because pulled from all the random old projects.

No, I ...

Fwiw this would be wonderful gift to the world and I would appreciate you for doing this.
