solved; How to play swung stuff into empty midi clip

[rnb0]

I want to play a percussion part into an empty midi clip for subsequent immediate looping in a performance setting. I'd rather not use the looper effect to do this. Is there a way that leaves the material with its swung rhythm? I see this question has been asked before but have found new recent responses and am wondering if there is new information.

…just record without quantisation…

Have you done this? Looped with a midi instrument into an un-quantized clip and maintained a swing? I must have some setting wrong because it still "straightens out" the material. (I also wouldn't mind having a 2 bar quantization in place because I'm not that good at hitting a launch control pad on the way out of the measures.)

I have not solved this using the previously posted response. Looking for more input. I want to play into empty midi clips for subsequent looping in a performance setting. I want to maintain the swing of the material. The purpose it to have the whole performance produced on the spot. It's why I embarked on using this product called "Live." Any ideas for me?

are you using a 1/16th record-quantisation setting? that will 'straighten out' any swing you play.
try it at '16th note triplet quantisation' instead. might be better for you.

...when i record midi into a slot with quantisation set to "off" i was under the impression that this results in a unquantized recording...the notes have a relation to a beat (1/16 or so) but i can clearly see an offset value that i'm also able to change with my push...

Thanks, all. Solved. I was focused on the Quantization options on the top of the screen but should have turned the RECORD Quantization setting (in the edit pulldown) to "none."
