Why when I delete a audio clip it still plays in arrange?

[claudek]

I am wondering why if I delete and audio clip from the arrange it still plays in the session view?

claudek,

essentially, when you record an arrangement using clips from the session view, live makes a virtual copy of the clips in the arrangement view. you'll notice that you can go into the arranger and adjust the loop points, pitch, etc. of a clip and the session clip is not affected.

the link between a clip in session view and the audio file is independent from the link between the clip in arrangement view and the audio file. it makes sense, but isn't obvious, and is extremely useful and elegant.
