158 Using Grooves
•Velocity — adjusts how much the velocity of the notes in clips will be affected by the veloc-
ity information stored in the groove file. Note that this slider goes from -100 to +100. At
negative values, the effect of the groove’s velocity will be reversed; loud notes will play
quietly and vice versa.
•Global Amount — this parameter scales the overall intensity of Timing, Random and Veloc-
ity for all of the available groove files. At 100%, the parameters will be applied at their as-
signed values. Note that the Amount slider goes up to 130%, which allows for even more
exaggerated groove effects. If grooves are applied to clips in your Set, the Global Amount
slider will also appear in Live’s Control Bar.

12.1.2 Committing Grooves
The Commit Groove Button.
Pressing the Commit button below the Clip Groove chooser “writes“ your groove parameters
to the clip. For MIDI clips, this moves the notes accordingly. For audio clips, this creates Warp
Markers at the appropriate positions in the clip.
After pressing Commit, the clip’s Groove chooser selection is automatically set to None.
