Saving Warp Markers
Your Warp Markers will automatically be saved with the Live Set, but you may also want to
save them with the sample le itself, so that they are reconstructed anytime you drag the
le into Live. To do this, click the Clip View's Save button.
Note that if a sample has a saved set of Warp Markers, Auto-Warp will have no effect. When
this is the case, you can use any of the (PC) /
Ctrl
(Mac) context menu commands
described in this section to initiate auto-warping.
9.2.3 Using Warp Markers
In the following sections, we will look at a couple of applications for time-warping samples.
Warping is, of course, an optional property of clips.
Syncing Straight Loops
When you import a sample that represents a well-cut musical loop of 1,2,4 or 8 bars in
length, Live usually makes the correct assumptions to play the loop in sync with the chosen
tempo. It places two Warp Markers, one at the sample's beginning and one at the end.
