Clips start at -3

Post by Gothboy » Fri Aug 28, 2015 6:13 pm

I've imported some audio clips into live using drag and drop and they're vocal parts so they're a bit long. Some start at -3 in the clip launcher. How can I have these clips start at measure 1 in the clip launcher window?

Drag the start marker in the clip to 1.1.1.

^ what he said^ and if you are happy with that setting, hit the 'save' button inside the clip properties window. That makes sure that it'll retain those settings every time you load the clip.

Right click the marker on the audio where you feel that 1 belongs and click 'set 1.1.1 here'
