right before i have a massive rant. hopefully this is an option you can change somewhere. right here goes.

live 4.0 - you could move the clip loop locators through the file using the cursor keys on the keyboard with out have to click on the loop locator.

live 5.0 - you could do it, but you had to activate the clip loop locator again with the mouse. okay slows the workflow down but small pisser in comparision with the enhanced features.

live 5.2 - YOU CANT MOVE THROUGH THE CLIP AT ALL WITH THE CURSORS.

this it a real problem for me when warping long clips for dj sets. i manually warp and dont rely on autowarp functions. please tell me this isnt a new feature and just an oversight on my part. i for one feel this is essential to my work flow.

i can move the loop brace with the arrow keys. or the start arrow, or the end arrow, depending on what was clicked with the mouse.

is this what you're talking about?

5.2

yes. another user told me its a bug and it only happens to him now and again. it was the first time since installing 5.2 i have tried to do some warping of tracks for a dj set and i couldnt do it. a reboot has solved the problem. i can now use the arrow keys. before the reboot i could only use the mouse to drag or scroll the locators through the clip. i couldnt make the loop locator band turn black at all. weird. it lots like its a bug of some kind. panic over. i was hoping it was something i had done and not another 'orange dot' type of thing.
