Tracks in the Browser.
Note that while you can rename or delete entire MIDI les via the Browser, this is not
possible with the individual MIDI tracks contained within them. This is also the case with the
individual components of Live Sets.
5.3.1 Exporting MIDI Files
Live MIDI clips can be exported as Standard MIDI les. To export a MIDI clip, use the File
menu's Export Selected MIDI Clip command. This command will open a le-save dialog,
allowing you to choose the location for your new MIDI le.
Exporting a MIDI le is different from saving the clip as a Live Clip.
5.4 Live Clips
Individual clips can be exported to disk in the Live Clip format for easy retrieval and reuse in
any project. Because they only contain references to samples on disk (rather than the audio
data itself), Live Clips are very small, which makes it easy to develop and maintain your own
collection.
To save a clip from the open Live Set to disk, simply drag it to the File Browser and drop it
into any folder. You can then type in a new name for the clip or conrm the one suggested
