this has probably been discussed a few hundred times but a Search yielded me either discussions about legality or posts about completed tracks
so, tbh, i almost never use the Arrangement view. all my productions are recorded on the fly. the spontaneous, not-really-planned aspect of Live is what brought me to the app 6 versions ago. i never could stand linear sequencers.
from a ~dj perspective, i have two tracks that i've gotten into the habit of *always* playing together. i've gotten pretty good at kicking the one off to where it's going to do what i want it to do in relation to the other. but obviously re-recording them together as a single mashed track would be better.
anyone care to give me a Top 5 Tips for doing this kind of thing? i think i can probably do it... just trying avoid newb path mistakes.

Re: Mashin
Yeah
This is exact where I'm at in my Ableton Experience
Ok try this
well first remember to do what sounds good to your ears
I love to play a Lyrical Track over an Instrumental one
OK play a track (usally the instrumental one) regualar
and then create a Spread Panner to play the Lyrical one
This entales a few Audio Rack FX's nested inside one another
First Rack creat two chains and with EQs separate the Bass from the Mid/Hi Freq
Next Rack in the Mid/Hi Freq create two chains one left and one right. I use the left to put a 9 - 10 millisecond delay.
I do this with a filter delay. There are a few way to do this, remember every Mash up will call for something different. My fav is turn the left and the right off so only the combo L+R is playing turn the filter off and set the sync to time. set the millisenconds to taste and that the basics
I F-ing love it but I do do all this in Arrangement view.
