With linked-track editing any tracks in the Arrangement view can now be grouped together so edits can be phase locked across the entire group. This is another feature that many other DAW’s have had for quite some time. To make this even breezier Ableton has created an easily accessible contextual menu so when you right click you can select “Create Cross Fades on Clip Edges.” This avoids the time-consuming need to go in and micro manage each edit.Ĭoming in third, and closely related to comping is the new Linked-Track editing functionality. Another nice thing Ableton has done here is to take into consideration how micro edits can often cause clicks and pops when being comped together. This is so cool and very useful for tons of sound design applications. You can also manually create take lanes and place whatever content you want on them and inter cut to your hearts delight. This allows you to select any segment from each take by simply highlighting it and then, by pressing enter, places it on the main clip track. ![]() Now when in loop record, instead of creating one long file of all the takes, Ableton now automatically places each take on its own “ take lane”. Track comping is the time-honored process of picking the best parts from multiple takes and stitching them together to create the best possible performance in a composite track. This feature alone is quite significant as Ableton Live is now neck and neck with other traditional DAW’s that have had this capability for what feels like eons now. Coming in at a very close second is the new comping capabilities.
