Tap Tempo question

[ttaralli]

Is there really no way to turn off auto start when taping in the tempo??????

sounds weird but try setting the signature to 8/8

(haven't tried this)

I believe that works when you change it to 8/4 so I'm sure 8/8 would work, but I want to just shut it off permanently. Anyway to do this? It seems weird that Ableton wouldn't make this an option.

[longjohns]

the entry in the manual makes it sound like you can't

You can also use tapping to count in: If you are working in a 4:4 signature, it takes four taps to start song playback at the tapped tempo

Thanks for the tip about changing the time signature... Genius workaround... haven't tried it when actually playing back clips/scenes, but when using ableton live as a host for my vsts this works great for getting my arpeggiators and delays in sync with the band... AWESOME! Thanks guys!
