Master Trigger

Post by smclellan » Thu Feb 16, 2006 7:54 pm

Hi there,
Maybe I need some mnore time with Live, but...

When I finish a session and I want to run it and record to the arrangement view, I trigger each scene manually. This is great from a compositional standpoint, because I can trigger any scene at any moment....

...however, in the master section where the scenes are triggered, perhaps a launch mode could be set to trigger from scene to scene in sequence, rather than having to program every clip to do this. Again, I might be missing something.

I just got another thought - not every clip might be of the same length. When I work on commercial arrangements, all my clips are usually the same length (bars). Perhaps this feature might not be so practical.

Besides, hitting return on cue keeps me sharp. :oops:

Aah... I see now.

My concern was that I could only set follow actions in individual tracks, on individual clips. I see now I can select the whole scene, and set a follow action globally. This applies it to all the clips in the scene.

Should have been more patient.

I suppose talking about it helps the thinking process. :oops:
