Ableton Forum

ok, I've been sampling vinyl into various ableton sets over the past month or two, mostly loops which I warped accordingly. My question is:

how do I get all these samples into ONE folder AND get the clip names i entered for each of them to show up in the file browser. As of now, they're all scattered in the folders of the different sets I recorded them in and live won't let me drag and drop them to different places from within the file browser.

Also, I'm not sure how the 'samples' folder works. Inside the 'recorded' folder within this there are a bunch of seemingly random wav's that I've sampled, only some of them are cut and warped and others aren't, and none of them have the names I assigned to them in live.

I'm relatively new to ableton so sorry if i make a few eyes roll

You sould put them in the clips folder in Live.Or do you have external drive?

Can't you just use File>Manage Files for this? Or is that not the best way?

yeah a bit confusing to read. renaming a track or idenity of a track or clip name wont rename the file name. that will need to be done when rendering or in your regular folder in windows.

regarding getting them into one folder, go read chapter 5 in the manual there are more tips in there than worth me typing.
