  • When you have the loop brace selected you can also use ctrl/cmnd down to halve the it's length, and then up again to return back to normal. It's good for create drum rolls etc on the fly.

  • @dag451 Those are great Key Commands as well. Thanks for sharing. Perhaps i can add those to a future tutorial.

  • Cool,this is great stuff.Looking forward to the next post!

  • @eeksta27

    Glad your enjoying!

  • a question: I'm looking for a very simple but soooo timesaving command ?

    how do i mute single Midi Notes ?

    i'm tired of clicking right + "Mute Midi Notes"

    (in Logic u do it by selecting the Midi Notes and Keycommand "M")

  • @dannysantino

    Unfortunately, I don't know of an easy way to do this in Live. I would recommend to contact Ableton and mention this feature request. They are very open to user feedback and suggestions.

  • don't forget the standard command a to select all, and command x to cut

  • @DubSpot

    i contacted ableton, this was their response:

    " Thanks for your input - it doesn´t exist so far, i´ll create a feature wish for our developers. "

  • Is there any way to map record quantize options?

  • @petterselle & BLAZE45

    The kit I'm using is a simple Kit I put together using samples from the Live 7 legacy Livepack. You can download it from ableton's website. Enjoy
