Ableton Loop off beat during live loop recording

Post by Mhines24 » Thu Feb 16, 2017 2:17 am

So after finally figuring out how to set up my foot pedal and Ableton push for live looping I have ran into a big problem preventing me for being able to record anything. I have a guitar track and a drum track with the looper effect on them each going to their own audio track for looping playback.

The crazy part is that when I use the looper while i'm not recording in live it works perfectly fine and is on beat every time but as soon as I hit the record button and try to record my loop the looper effect for some odd reason waits 2 bars before recording and throws off my whole loop by 2 bars. I have no clue why it is doing this and have tried for hours to fix this to no avail. Any help would be much appreciated please. Thank you.

at the top left of ableton, there is a box that will say 2bars. this is your recording count-in. click that and it will let you choose 0.
