How do add real life sounds to ableton?

Post by lancerguy » Thu Feb 17, 2022 1:15 am

Hello, I'm trying to figure out a way to add a particular sound i recorded into Ableton. It's a particular beep noise my car is making and I tried recording it with my phone and playing it while recording in Ableton and... well yeah sounded awful 8O lol so if there is a way I can do it where it sounds perfectly clear as recorded that would be great.

Thanks

Can you email the recording to yourself? Is it stored on a cloud account? If it’s on your phone, transfer via file is probably most ideal. I’m imagining you holding your phone up to a microphone or something ???
