I'm learning Live for three years, and now i'm trying to find my own way to manage my sets, for playing live.
I know that there are so many ways to use Live, and all can be good, according to the balance between the improvisation and a total control of your sounds.
Anyway i would be very interested in knowing your ways to do, if you want.
One of the good guys i follow for that is Nicolas Jaar. I really love the way he manages his music.
I know that he used to play with a lot of tracks, in a diagonal way. Almost each sound has his own track, and he keeps midi tracks.
But i'm stucked, i don't really understand how he launchs his clips/scenes, and that's a point i'd really like to understand.

I understand a lot of things he does here, except one big thing : do you have a idea of the purpose of the green buttons of his controller he pushs?
Do you think it's mapped to "play track"? "stop track"? "on/off tracks"? "launch a group of tracks"?
Knowing he also uses routed tracks, maybe something with the "audio to", "audio from", or monitoring?
other lives, and the same thing : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qauomgfeQkQ , https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9Ldafw-_lc
If someone has an answer, or a good tip to launch clips with a controller when you have a lot of tracks, he will have all my admiration
