Amazing feature I had no idea was there. Is this new for 9 (I just got Live 9)? Seriously amazing workflow for sampling.

It's been a feature for as long ask can remember.

A lot of people seem put off by that method for some reason.

This feature is in ableton as long as I can think, I did this chromatic playing since version 4 with my sampls from time to time on my keyboard. Yes ableton is a sampler too, because it is a program, thats build on granular synthesis.

Beware, that the quality of the playing sample will be more worse, when you play it higher or lower then one octave.

I wouldn't play a sample not more then 4 notes high or low from the root note. The root note is C3, as you can see, if you drag a sample into sampler or simpler.

To be honest, I see this question asked day in day out.

Everyone is always asking how to time stretch in ableton.

For some reason though I could never get this one to work. Now I have other methods for doing it.

Long winded ones I must say...

Make sure your midi controller is set to "remote" in midi prefs...

I'm still really enjoying this feature.

Maybe that's what I've been missing!

I'll make sure to try it when I get home.

Thanks.

Looks interesting but how do you set this up?

I can't quite follow where I would start from. Any help?

oh just found it
