When i click the button to start recording an audio loop then click it again to stop the recording it doesnt stop on the dime. How do i work this so it will act say like my jamman i press the jam mans record button on the down beat and it instantly starts to record and once i press it again it instantly begins to loop. It seems like kid beyond is doing it in his video am i doing something wrong?

basicly what it looks like is ableton is making the loops perfect mesures how do i make it like loop in free time?

have a look at the quantise settings at both global and clip levels and you should be able to get it working fine. you may need to use a click track though to get your timing right on.

definatly check quantise.... if you set it to none the when you hit stop, it will stop.
what i suspect your doing is setting the quantise to one bar, pressing stop, but then live is on, or has passed the bar and so will continue for another... live cant predict what your going to do.

if you set it to one bar, you will need to press stop before the end of the loop.... so that when it reaches the bar it will stop perfectly on time for you.

Check the fade button as well. Sometimes the clip fading out sounds like a delay when you loop it.
