Testing Follow Actions

Post by geo » Sat Jun 04, 2011 2:00 am

I am building a DJ set and I've split a tune in two parts. The second part(clip) is launched after 165 bars but I would like to test if the follow action of the first clip launches the second one in time. So, on the first clip, I click at a point towards its end to see if the follow action will be triggered but it doesn't seem to work that way. Live needs to play the whole 165 bars to trigger the follow action. Is there a way to test a follow action for long clips so that I won't have to wait for the whole length of the clip to be played back? Hope I am making sense!

The length of the sample needs to stay as is since it's the first part of the song...
