Is there anyway to change how live renames multiple clips when you crop? It doesn't rename the first clip and then suffix's from 1 up. Wanted to change it so that it starts at 1 and all clips have a number, at the moment I just rename the first one with 0 (zero) to keep it neat.

Not a big deal but I'm cropping large amounts of small clips at the moment and it would help a lot with organisation.

edit- Would be helpful to know how to change this for custom renaming too

Cheers.

OCD ?
(I don't know of any way other than the manual way you do... maybe should go in the "feature wishlist" section)

Yes, probably OCD! I like to keep things neat. Doing a lot of field recordings at the moment and things are getting very messy (especially with one-shot hits).

Don't want to use 3rd party file renaming tools either as live has a tendency to get itself all worked up if you don't rename in the file browser


If there is any flexibility when renaming in live? Any tips or tricks at all... would love to know.
