Live 12 Tagging - How to create a sub category for sounds that don't have one?

[DavidassMagoza]

Hi,

As the title says, how do I create a sub category for a sound that does not yet have one.

Example: Bass has a subcategory of 808 Bass, Lead has no subcategory but I would like to add one but cannot figure out how to do this.

Or even add a sub category at all for that matter.

Anyone know how?

You can put any tag for any group etc. when you click on Edit button next to Filter on Browser. You can also add new groups. With Groups I mean new main Category. here is a link which could help you :

Cheers yels,

Looks like the option I was looking for is not available as I wanted to add to the existing bass, lead and pad tags some new sub category's.

Maybe they will add this at some point.

Hey, I found a way to do this (subcategory/nesting) from another thread in here.

Use the | symbol for a subcategory like this: Lead|Hyper Saw

I also found out, that you can't currently do more than one level of nesting, which is a bit of a bummer...
