CHAPTER 8. CLIP VIEW 117
8.3.2 Bank and Program Change
Live can send MIDI bank/program change messages to external devices and plug-ins that
support MIDI program change messages. According to the settings in these controls,
launching a clip also sends its bank/program change message. If you are using Live to send
MIDI to your synth, this means that each MIDI clip in your Live Set can play a different sound
on your synth. Live offers messages for 128 banks with 128 sub-banks, each of which has
128 programs. Please see the documentation that came with your synthesizer to determine
how many of these messages it can use. If you do not want your clip to send program or
bank change messages, simply set the bank/program choosers to None.
8.3.3 MIDI Loop/Region
These controls manage how the contents of a MIDI clip are played and shown in the MIDI
Editor. They work the same way as those for audio clips.
In the MIDI Editor, the zoom/scroll area is located above the beat-time ruler, the scrub area
just below.
8.4 Clip Defaults and Update Rate
You can change the rate at which Live applies your Clip V iew settings to a running clip. Clip
View changes will be quantized by the rate selected from the Clip Update Rate chooser in
the Record/Warp/Launch Preferences. Certain clip settings, such as Launch Mode and Warp
Mode, can be set up as defaults for all new clips. This is also done in the Record/Warp/
Launch Preferences.
