Live set help

Post by amalgamProject » Sat Feb 11, 2006 7:55 pm

Might sound stupid but here goes. Im new to recording on live and I am having trouble switching my Live set recording to a regular loop on the main screen. I went through the tut's and it's not in there... I am using this as a song writing tool any help is appreciated. :oops:

What do you mean by main screen - session/arrangement?

If your new to Live you're probably refering to the Arrangement screen.

Elaborate on what you're trying to accomplish...

Are you trying to record yourself into Live with a microphone and make a loop of that?

Ok I have a Tone port UX2 from Line 6 and I am trying to lay down some guitar parts and build on them. Section by section. I am trying to go from the live set recording which i have cut down and looped to what I want. To the vertical session view selector clip device drop area. If that makes sense...

if you just want to move your clips to the session view, you can either

- drag them to the session icon in the upper right corner, wait til the view switches, then drop them wherever...

or

- start dragging in arrangement view, keeping mouse button down. hit tab. drop in session view
