Set how many bars/beats will recrded on an audio clip

[Spawn-X]

Hi...

Don't found any similar topic.

In SESSION mode, I wish a feature to set how many bars/beats the next record will be.

For example, on stage with a multi In/Out audio interface, we can't easily record one track of guitar for 2 bars, one of bass for 1 bar, one of percussions for 3 beats only, on just one action.

With a feature like this, we just have to set first clip to record only 2 bars, the second to record only 1 bar, and the last one to record only 3 beats then get start record.

While each clip arrived to its duration set, it's automatically stop rec and start play loops with each own value.

So? Who votes for it's feature?

Workaround:

Remote control the clip record/launch/stop buttons from within Live via IAC (or whatever equivalent on PC). You'll have one or many MIDI track(s) with clips that can engage any combination of different length recording for multiple slots on other audio/MIDI tracks.

I have a similar request but deals more with recording midi.

I want users to have the power to determine their own default new clip length when creating new midi clips (by double clicking empty session slot).
1 bar loops I think is limiting for most people and it is a workflow killer having to adjust each clip one by one to four bars when you know most of your clips are going to be four bars long.

I would love to see this feature too!!

[Surreal]

this feature--kinda--exists.

no?

if you have quantization set to 2 bars, you double tap to trigger the clip. the first triggers. the second, after 2 bars, stops.

I have no hands free to click
