Putting all ableton projects into one big one?

Post by aminderm455 » Tue May 03, 2011 8:17 pm

Is there a way to easily put all of your ableton projects into one big project. For live purposes, I have a project for each song. This makes it time consuming to go from one song to the next, and forces me to always click "don't save". I know I could manually copy and paste everything but I figured there had to be a faster way. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Alex

You can drag als files into your project... you can also expand them in the browser window and drag in individual tracks.

wow that was easy. Thanks! If I use a lot of different plugins on stage as well as guitar looping, is it a bad idea to have all of my projects in one (due to drop outs and crashes from cpu usage)?

I always have a full rehearsal before i try out a new live set in public. Its easier that way.
