Group Track - How to record live automation (speaker on/off) to Grouped Tracks?

Post by Whaikōrero » Mon Aug 22, 2022 3:05 am

Hi people,

The issue:
I have arranged some cool patterns in Session View and would like to record live automation into Arrangement.

In particular I want to use the Push 2 Controller's Mute function to create little random drop outs to different Grouped Tracks (very fun). But I would like to capture these drop outs as I record into Arrangement.

This seems to work fine for regular audio and midi tracks, but does not seem to work for grouped tracks (for me at least).

Am I missing something very obvious here or is this something Live doesn't allow at the moment?

About my set up:
Mac Mini 2012, 16gb
Ableton Live 11 Suite 11.0.12 Build 2021-11-04
Push 2 Controller

Any help much appreciated :) Peace

[Solved it by turning Ableton on and off]

I think it was just one of those strange glitches that happen from time to time.

Sorry to spam up the board but it was doing my head in and it made no sense at all!

Peace
