yep have to agree, it is a joke

I find simpler and impulse to be scetching tools anyway, and I think Live itself is THE instrument, so why bother to enhance simpler or impulse.

Absolutely agree...
I've been using the full version of live now a little over two years, I would say it is probably only in the last six months that this has made sense.
Live is the instrument, it is a modular environment, it is emulating a performance environment where as a more traditional DAW is emulating a recording studio environment.

Just my $0.02.

a quick way to do it for Simpler/Impulse;

drag the sample in a clip slot,
reverse it,
drag the clip into Simpler/Impulse..

cheers..

you have to drop your sample in an audio trck and "rev" there and drop it back in to simpler.

Cool thanks for the tips!

I am wanting to make that 'backwards' sound for signals...you know, like beatles 'tomorrow never knows' stuff

does ableton have a 'reverse' or 'backwards' feature on it???

thanks!

is there a way to do this with a midi note? Or is it just audio ?

No, the midi note itself is only a command to play the inserted instrument. But you can always record the instrument, then you have reversable audio.

you know that you can reverse a clip easily, and its the simpler/impulse theres no reverse function.

i wonder why they have not provided this feature on simpler or impulse

sure i do, i am talking about a shortcut

press reverse.

If you could go back in time 14 years, they might listen to you.
