is there a way to record midi and then ear what you recorded when you keep playing on it but without record it? I mean, I´m using phatmatik pro (is like recycle but vst) in a midi track. I monitor what i´m playing, let´s say some drums but then, if i want to keep adding things, let´s say some hi hats, if i monitor it, i can not here what i´m playing until I play record... is there a way to play with the keys at the same time that you ear what you previously recorded? I hope my doubt it´s clear
Thanks and give it up to live, the best sequencer ever!!

After you record a clip it won't record over what you allready have unless the global [OVR] is activated on lives transport bar, even if the track is record enabled.

Yes, i Know, but still you didnt aswer the question. I want to ear what i´m playing at the same time that i ear what i already have recorded withouh record what i´m actually playing, is this clear? Thanks... help!!

Help!!!

use two tracks? one on which you record the midi clips, one on which you monitor the output of the vst?

YEs, this might be one solution... Thanks!!!
