effectively play the session view

[RjanL]

Hello everyone!
I've always used the arrangement version of ableton and recently I'm trying my hand at playing live with the session mode, I have a problem that I can't solve:

I am playing through ableton live with session mode using launchpad x which has a grid of 64 keys that simulate the session view
the problem is that the row consists of 8 clips so 8 channels with their respective clips
a lot of my projects have a lot more than 8 channels, so to play the channels from the 8th on I have to use a little arrow in the launchpad which besides being inconvenient only goes forward one channel at a time
I was wondering if it would be possible to put multiple channels within the session view of my launchpad to take advantage of all 64 keys in a functional way
Alternatively, I have tried creating many audio channels, and placing all the sounds in the grid of the first page of the session so that I can launch all the sounds from the same page BUT, it happens that if I play two clips in the same column one will mute,

So, is it possible to use all 64 keys on my launchpad efficiently?

Thanks for reply,
I need to play the individual groups without being grouped, also because once clumped if I want to expand them they occupy the same row and to expand them I have to reach into the computer
I would like to occupy all the channel clips from the eighth onwards on the first page keys to play them all comfortably

Well you can't. Sorry but thats the way live works.

You could map individual clips to your controller, so e.g. the top 4 rows could control the clips in the first four scenes in tracks 1-8 and the bottom four rows control clips in the first four scenes in tracks 9-16. Or whatever configuration suits your use case e.g. have some buttons assigned to launching entire scenes; columns 1-4 match the first 8 clips in tracks 1-4 and columns 5-8 control four clips in tracks 5-12 etc.

With ClyphX Pro you can assign multiple functions to one button e.g. slow press will launch clip 1, long press will launch clip 2. Or with their MODE functions you can assign even more functions.
