Global groove NEEDS to come back for LIVE beat making!

[Ernst]

Posting this here too in the hope that somebody from Ableton might take notice. This is more of bringing back a (for me, not everybody) CRITICAL feature. Please don't say it's still there and there are workarounds etc because it isn't and there isn't. This is the only thing that stops me from using Live 8 live. This is taken from this thread where there is more detail on the subject: http://forum.ableton.com/viewtopic.php? ... 54&start=0

I really appreciate the new groove features in Live 8. They are excellent when creating in the studio but if you, like me, are making tracks and beats on the fly on stage, you need to be able to set a default groove for your project. Things need to be simple and fast. If I'm making a Jackin House track I know that every clip I record is going to be quantized and swing like a mofo. I don't want to have to muck about in the groove pool, finding the right groove, then applying it to the clip I just recorded. If I have a swinging drum beat going and I lay down a bassline, the first 4 bars, or however long it takes me to apply the groove, are going to be straight and sound off - not cool! I also bought the APC to get away from the mouse but in this scenario I have to reach for the damn thing after every clip I record.

Please, it can't be that hard to have a default groove as an option, right?

I really admire your restraint in only bumping your topics once every 2.5 years.

Yeah, it was kinda dumb when they took that out.
