Simpler with a Speed Knob

Post by Mickz » Thu Mar 26, 2026 2:49 am

Hi,
I wish Ableton make this happend. A Simpler with A Speed Knob like Serato Samper f.E. It would be so much easier to (fine) adjust the speed. I like my Samples always a hint slower. And you have way more possibiltys, too.

Workaround:

You can load a file as an Audio Clip (usually in Session View), warp it in any way you want, then drag and drop the warped Clip into Simple, it will retain the warping.

For example, if you warp an vocal phrase, "squishing" some parts and stretching others, then drag the Clips into Simpler in Repitch mode, you will hear the "chipmunk effect" making some parts higher pitch and other parts lower pitch.

Nah it´s not that. It´s a must have for quick fine adjusting. As I mentioned almost every Sampler got it like Serato, Bitwig, Resaon´s Mimic a.s.o.
