Drum Mode
If an Ableton Live Drum rack is loaded to the currently armed track, Note Mode will represent the
current state of the drum rack, showing which slots are currently filled.
In Ableton Live, load a drum kit into a MIDI track by selecting a Drum kit from the browser and double
clicking it (or alternatively drag it to a track). If you cannot hear anything, ensure that the track is
record armed and that monitoring is set to auto (Note Mode).
The view is divided into four 4x4 areas, each of which represents the areas of the Drum rack, shown
below.
