Ableton Forum

I've been using 4.13 demo and really like Live a lot. I think the way the the tutorials are laid out are excellent. It's a great way to learn the program.
I have a few questions about Live
1.When previewing from file browser is it possible to have audio loop like Acid or Sonar? With short loops I find I have to replay it over again to make sure its the one I want.
2.Can the Live Sounds folder be moved?Right now it's on the system drive.Could it be moved to external hard drive?
3.Do warp markers change the .wav file?If I use an Acid loop in Live will it modify the file?
4.Any competive crossgrades available?
5.Does Sampletank xl 1.14 work for anyone?Every time I open it Live locks and I have to restart it.
thanks

>>> one time loop audition from the browser; but you can drop it onto a cell to loop it, and easily dispose of it if you don't like it

>>> you can assign the three folders to point anywhere you like, on any drive

>>> no, it is non-destructive
