Just got Ableton live 3 and cant seem to loop?

Im using Perfect cut loops for Acid and my own dont follow the tempo! I did seem to do this but not now..!?!

I have dragged a loop in to the arrange page and have "warp" and "loop" on but they still are way out?

The Auto warp is on in the Pref's and 2, 4 and 8 bar loops seem ok

Just small 1 bar loops dont "loop/warp"!!!!

Any ideas?

Try doubling or halfing the tempo of the problem loop(s) in Live's clip settings, using the little "2" buttons. You may have to alter Live's initial estimate of the clip's properties in order to get the results you want.

Change Live's master tempo to hear your loops at different tempos ... individual clip settings are the starting point for warping while the master tempo is the tempo things are warped to.

Also note the type of warping in clip settings, since there are four kinds of warping, suited to different creative needs. You can use the default setting for most things but if you changed it accidentally you may want to change it back.
