34 12
Recording a New Clip
Into the Session View.
1. Set the Global Quantization chooser to any value other than None to obtain
correctly cut clips.
2. Activate the Arm button for the tracks onto which you want to record. Clip
Record buttons will appear in the empty slots of the armed tracks.
3. Click on any of the Clip Record buttons to commence recording. A new clip
will appear in the slot with a red Clip Launch button that shows it is currently
recording. To go from recording immediately into loop playback, press the clip's
Launch button.
4. Alternatively, you can click a Clip Stop button or the Stop button in the Control
Bar to stop recording, leaving the new clip silent.
Note that, by default, launching a Session View scene will not activate recording in empty
record-enabled slots belonging to that scene. However, you can use the Start Recording
on Scene Launch option from the Record/Warp/Launch Preferences to tell Live that you do
want empty scene slots to record under these circumstances.
