Clip Repeat Specific Number of Times

Post by britesc » Mon Aug 27, 2007 3:03 pm

Hi,

Is there a way of getting a clip to repeat a specific number of times and then move on to the next clip...

I want to be able to play Clip A 5 times
Then Move on to Clip B play that 3 times
Then Move on to clip C then stop etc. etc

Appreciate any help
Using Live 6.0.7

Thanks
J

Follow actions

set each play time, and follow to "next"

Hi

Thanks for the reply but I am still confused.

What do you mean by Play Time.
How and where can I set that.

Sorry to be dumb.

I know how to set a follow action to play the clip length of says 3 bars then move onto the next clip.

But not how to make it play the 3 bars 5 times.

Use the "Launch" section next to the keyboard part of the UI.
Enable "Follow Action" and select "Next" and then change 1x to 5x if you want it to play 5 times and then go to the next.
Then the next one you can go "Previous" and then it will play the first part 5 times and then the next one once and then return to create a loop.
