hi!

is there a simple trick for editing more than one clip in the session mode? i would like to edit the follow action without clicking each clip.

thank you

Look in the manual. I know you can edit multiple clips (just read a bit about it last night lol) by having them all highlighted but it will change all of the same item selected. Not sure if each individual clip can have different parameters highlights in each respective clip and tweak. Look in chapter 8 page 87 for information on clips. That should give you the information you are asking about or get you in the ballpark area for it.

double click a clip to open clip view
ctrl-a to select all clips or just 'drag select' the clips
most of the parameters in clip view will go away but the ones that are there become global settings for all the clips you selected. if some settings have a diagonal bar across them then some clips have different settings for that feature.


I really really really wish Ableton would make Follow Actions settings midi assignable. I'd love to be able to toggle follow actions with the flip of a switch, it would make creation so much easier.

I often do a shift-select or Ctrl/Cmnd-click to pick a selection of clips (ie, every other clip on a track), rather than a whole track's worth. Remember to open clip view beforeyou select more than one of them.

Regarding stuff I would like to be able to assign to MIDI CC:

Beats Mode Envelope Size (0-100). Being able to control the size of my kick drum or punch of my percussion loops in real-time sans-mouse would be great.

Peace,

+11111 . Not just turning them on/off but maybe toggling thru the type, ratio, rate, etc..

Also, follow actions for whole scenes.. Ya I guess you can just make all the clips with the same follow action but it'd be super simple to use follow action with scenes.. My drummer would appreciate that for when he practices with our Live set, we don't really want to make arrangements, but at the same time, he'd want the scene changes to be automated.. *tap tap tap tap*
