Feature Request: consistent file name/location defaults in Save dialogues

Post by tristanperich » Mon Sep 06, 2021 3:04 pm

This is a minor request but Ableton Live usually defaults to the current folder and project name when exporting rendered audio, but it's inconsistent when it gets overridden (by manually entering a different name) and when it gets back to default.

If I export rendered audio with a custom name or location, and then I "Save As" the entire project to a new project file, I'd like the audio export name and location in the render export dialogue to go back to their defaults: the current project name and location. Or another way to go back to the defaults.

(I would use this because I sometimes export excerpts of a track in special cases, but in general I want the export name/location to match the session.)

(Even opening up a new project still retains the export dialogue folder from the previous project. This seems like a good time to reset to default.)
