I have a pretty basic session i was working on in live 6 and want to try and export it in a format that live 5 will open. Its all pretty basic, just a few audio tracks with some stretching and some midi tracks. Is this possible at all or will i have to re-record all the tracks a the same start time ...

it looks like in some of your videos you are playing the bass drum with your foot, what are you using to trigger that?

www.freecompose.com Figured I post this site/project that I've been working on. Basically I post compositions (used to be weekly, now less often) and talk about what I did to create them. Live was used in at least 1/2 of them to date. Its probably the best program when i want to creatively get ideas...

sure you can. i'm not sure if you can drag notes in the actual tracks, but if you've selected the clip, you can do whatever editing in the clip view at the bottom of the screen - arrange or session thats what I was afraid of. heres to hoping that in live 6 you can move the note right in the arrange...

so there is no known way to just grab a midi note in the arrange window and drag it over a beat?

I'm kinda a newbie to live and I've been trying to edit midi in the arrange window. for example I have a drum loop going that I have put into the arrange and I just want to add a sort of fill into the chorus... is it possible to do that in the arrange window?

I've been trying to use live to get my ideas down as quick as possible, but I find that If I want to, for example, record 4 bars of guitar, I have to start the recording, then since I have to trigger live to record, I'm not ready to play yet, and then I play for four bars, then I have to go in, edit...

I'm making a loop of a guitar part. it starts on beat 2 and then the end hangs over to beat 2 and restarts. so essentially I want playback to start initially on beat 1 and then loop from beat 2 to beat 2 after that. How can I accomplish this?
