Track Launch button??

Post by Crabbit » Mon Oct 11, 2010 10:18 pm

Okay, I think I'm going completely mad here and also being very stupid.

But, I'm fairly sure I'm supposed to have a button somewhere near the bottom of each track which launches the currently selected clip on the track. However all I have is a clip stop button. So I'm thinking this must be a contextual button, right? It changes to a launch button when I select a stopped clip on the track? ...nope, thats not it. Maybe I need the track record arm switched on? ...nope, didn't change anything apart from making each cell have a record button.
I'm pretty sure I had this button when I was using Live 6 but just recently upgraded to Live 8 and bought an APC20. (I know, I know I have an APC20 and I still want a track launch button - please just don't ask.)

Can someone tell me whether I'm being completely stupid, or whether I just dreamed of this button or something?
Thanks in advance, guys :)

Glad for you! But since you posted that thread, you could also post the solution, so it just does not stand here for nothing.
Just in case someone else is also an idiot... :wink:
