Recorded over live session - am I able to retrieve first session?
I recorded a session at a gig but failed to save before recording the second set. D'oh!
Is there a way to retrieve the original file I recorded over?
Using Mac Book Pro )S 10.12.6, Ableton 9.7.7

You might be lucky.
Go to the Project in your Live browser
open up the Folder so you can see /Backup and /Samples,
Open Samples/Recorded
if it's available it will be there

Thanks. Sorry to be dense, but I can't seem to find /Backup and /Samples.
Which folder am I opening for that?

Ah, I just noticed you are on Live 9 it will look slightly different,
but look somewhere around here

Unable to find "Live 9 songs"
Which folder is that in?

Those are just folders I've created in Places.
It's where I save my songs.
Find where you songs are saved. For me that's in these folders. Open your folder where you save songs in the live browser and look for the Samples folder in the project which you recorded the audio.

Re: Recorded over live session - am I able to retrieve first session?
I guess I'm not nearly well-enough organized. I never actually created a folder in which saved files could be found.
I've snooped around all over and still can't find a record of previous sets.
Any idea where I should be looking?

Your set is in a folder, right?
In this folder there's a few other folders. That's in one of them, and probably the one called "recorded".

Re: Recorded over live session - am I able to retrieve first session?
I've looked all over. The "Live Recordings" file in Ableton shows only recordings up to May 22.
The project I'm working on was June 16.
I am able to access the second recording from that date and the remainder of the first set which was recorded over.
I've done nothing since, so I want to believe the set I recorded over is still in there somewhere,
but I'm not advanced enough to know where (in Ableton or on my desktop) to find it.
Thanks for your help and patience.
