In addition to settings for audio rendering, the Export dialog provides additional options for rendering video:. After the audio rendering is complete, the video will be rendered. Note that, depending on the encoder used, video rendering may occur in more than one pass.
Live will display a progress bar that will indicate the status of the process. The video file will also contain the rendered audio. For more information about working with video in Live, see the chapter on video see Chapter Normally, rendering happens as an offline process.
But if your set contains an External Audio Effect see In this case, rendering the master output happens in real time. Then, any tracks that do access these devices will be rendered in real time.
The number of rendering attempts if there has been more than one will also be listed in the dialog box. If you find that dropouts and restarts keep happening, you should close other running applications to allow more processing power for rendering.
Please see the chapter on computer audio resources see Chapter 33 for more tips on improving performance. MIDI files appear with a special icon in the browser. When using the command in the Session View, the file will be inserted in the currently selected clip slot.
This command will open a file-save dialog, allowing you to choose the location for your new MIDI file. Individual audio or MIDI clips can be exported to disk in the Live Clip format for easy retrieval and reuse in any project.
Audio clips only contain references to samples on disk rather than the audio data itself , so they 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 Places section of the browser and drop it into the Current Project or any user folder.
You can then type in a new name for the clip or confirm the one suggested by Live with Enter. Note that Live Clips that are imported into tracks already containing devices or clips will appear with their clip settings but not their devices. You could, for instance, drop a bassline Live Clip on an existing track that drives a bass instrument, rather than creating a new track.
Clips belonging to any Live Sets already on disk are also Live Clips. Please see the section on merging Sets see 5. The default clip in the. Live Clips, on the other hand, are stored on disk as separate musical ideas. For example, you could create a number of variations from the same audio clip by using different warp, pitch, envelope and effect settings, and store them all as separate Live Clips.
In the browser, you could then independently sort and preview these clips, even though they are all referring to the same source sample. The type of document that you create and work on in Live is called a Live Set. In the browser, you can double-click or press Enter on a Live Set to open it.
Live makes it easy to merge Sets, which can come in handy when combining work from different versions or pieces. To add all tracks except the return tracks from one Live Set into another, drag the Set from the browser into the current Set, and drop it onto any track title bar or into the drop area next to or below the tracks.
The tracks from the dropped Set will be completely reconstructed, including their clips in the Session and Arrangement View, their devices, and their automation. If you prefer to import individual tracks from a Set, you can unfold the Live Set in the browser just as if it were a folder. You can now drag the individual tracks and drop them as described at the beginning of this section. Any grooves see Chapter 13 that were saved with your Set are also available as a folder within the unfolded Set.
You can also drag Group Tracks see Group Tracks can be expanded in the browser, allowing you to load an individual track from within. In addition to unfolding Sets, you can further unfold the tracks within the Sets to access the individual Session View clips that were used on the track:.
You can browse, preview and import Session View clips from the Set as if they had been stored as individual Live Clips.
This means that any Live Set can serve as a pool of sounds for any other, suggesting creative reuse and crossover. You can export a selection of Session View clips as a new Live Set by dragging them to the browser. Live will use these settings as the initialized, default state for new Live Sets. You can use this to pre-configure:. These Sets will then function as templates: they will load with the configuration you saved, but with the name Untitled.
To view a list of the files referenced by the current Live Set, choose the Manage Files command from the File menu, click the Manage Set button, and then click the View Files button. Live will display one line for each file used by the Live Set. To list all clips or instruments in the Live Set where the file is actually used, click the triangle to expand the line.
Here is what you can do:. A Live Project is a folder containing Live-related files that belong together. Consider, for example, work on a piece of music: You start out with an empty Live Set; you record audio and thereby create new sample files; you drag in samples from collections; you save different versions of the Live Set along the way so that you can go back and compare.
When you save a Live Set under a new name or in a new folder location, Live will create a new project folder and store the Live Set there — unless you are saving the Live Set into an existing Live Project. We have recorded some audio into a new Live Set. The Desktop is available in the browser because we have previously added it as a user folder. Here is the result as displayed by the Live browser:. Next, we record another track into our Project. We save the modified version of the Live Set under a new name so that we do not lose the previous version.
As this has nothing to do with our tango dabblings, we decide to save it outside the Tango Project folder, say on the Desktop. Live creates a new project folder named Samba Project next to Tango Project. So far we have seen how to create Live Projects and save versions of Live Sets into them.
How do we open a Project? Simply by opening any of its contained Live Sets. Note that the new project folder has no Samples folder yet.
You can prevent this by collecting external files see 5. A note for users of older Live versions : Live does not allow overwriting Live Sets that were created by older major versions to prevent compatibility problems. Doing this will insure that the newly saved Live Sets reside in project folders. By default, new instrument and effect presets are stored in your current Project.
At times however, it may make more sense to save a preset to another folder or to your User Library, so that you can access them from other Projects. You can drag a preset between folders after saving it see When saving presets that contain samples to a new location, Live may copy the samples depending on the settings in the Collect Files on Export chooser in the Library Preferences. You can then type in a new name for the device or confirm the one suggested by Live with Enter.
Click on the Status Bar message to access these. This is actually a shortcut for choosing the Manage Files command from the File menu, clicking the Manage Set button, and then clicking the Locate button found in the Missing Files section. The File Manager will present you with a list of the missing files and associated controls. To manually fix a broken file reference, locate the missing file in the browser, drag it over to the File Manager and drop it on the respective line in the list of missing files.
Note that Live will not care if the file you offer is really the file that was missing. Live offers a convenient automatic search function for repairing file references. To reveal detailed options for guiding the automatic search function, click the neighboring triangular-shaped button. For each missing file, the automatic search function may find any number of candidates.
To prevent a Live Set from containing broken file references, Live provides the option of collecting i. This is accomplished via the File Manager:. Separated by location other Projects, the User Library, installed by factory Packs, and elsewhere — sample collections from external drives, for example , the File Manager provides:. Note that this can cause a lot of copying, especially if your Live Set uses large multisample collections!
When you save Live Clips, device presets or tracks by dragging them into the Browser, Live manages the copying of associated files based on the selection made in the Collect Files on Export chooser in the Library Preferences.
This chooser provides the following options:. Instead of having to deal with problems while you are in a creative mode, you might prefer putting aside some dedicated housekeeping time to solve all the problems in one go.
Remember to click the Collect and Save button at the bottom of the File Manager when you are finished. Otherwise your changes will be discarded.
You can then review them and decide to delete them individually or collectively. If not, the file is regarded as unused — even if other Projects or programs still use it. Clicking the Show button makes the browser list the unused files; there, you can preview samples see 5. Note you can also find the unused files from the Library: choose the Manage Files command from the File menu, then click the Manage Library button, and then see the Unused Files section.
Live inspects each Project individually and labels a file unused even if another Projects in the same folder does use that file. To prevent losses, you may want to first collect the files into their respective Projects and then purge the Projects of unused files. Creating a new Pack from a Project does not affect the Project. If you want the Project deleted, you can delete it using the browser.
Live employs lossless compression techniques to minimize the file size of Packs. Depending on the audio materials in a Project, this saves up to 50 percent in file size. To unpack a Pack i. A Project is automatically created whenever you save a Live Set, except when you save it into a preexisting Project. You can then use the File Management tools, collect any referenced samples, etc. I've been trying to import mp3 into it but have been unsuccessful.
Can someone explain to me how to do this? Also is it possible to slow down the track to play along wit hit for practice purposes? I'd like to be able to import my favorite songs and be able to play along to them while recording my drumming.
Is this possible? I'm running windows 10 if that helps and sorry if this is not the right place to post this question. Right-click on the header of the click sample and select Group. This will create an Instrument Rack. Rename this Instrument rack to Kick. You will see the Kick sample these. Now drag in your other kick samples. The beauty of this is that you can adjust the volume of each sample on each chain to your liking, and individual processing can be applied to each chain.
Or you can apply processing to the overall Instrument Rack. For example, I have slightly compressed each kick sample and have added an EQ Eight to each one. You can use the EQs to get the samples to gel together better. Boost frequency ranges on some samples, while attenuating frequency areas on the other samples so they sit together better. I have added a compressor to each chain and have then applied an EQ. You can also pan the samples to different areas on the stereo field to add some width and differentiation.
This adds some parallel drum processing to the Drum Instrument Rack. Another thing to do is to set up the Choke so that when the Open Hats are played, it chokes the Closed Hats, and visa versa. Set the HH and OH choke both to 1.
