Using Grooves
The timing and “feel“ of each clip in your Set can be modified through the use of grooves. Live
comes with a large selection of grooves, which appear as .agr files in the browser.
Groove Files in the Browser.
The easiest way to work with library grooves is to drag and drop them from the browser directly
onto clips in your Set. This immediately applies the timing characteristics of the groove file to
the clip. If you want to quickly try out a variety of grooves, you can enable the Hot-Swap but-
ton above a clip’s Clip Groove chooser (page 101) and then step through the grooves in the
browser while the clip plays.
