ABSTRACT

Clips are the musical building blocks of Live. Each clip represents a musical event—for example, a melodic idea or phrase, percussive rhythm or beat loop, grooving bass line, transitional effect, or an entire music track or song. Therefore, clips are used to form the musical framework of songs, scores, hooks, remixes, DJ sets, live stage show performances, interactive music installations, and much more. Whether laid out in the Arrangement or Session Views, clips store a vast amount of information, along with audio and MIDI content. Each clip has its own unique set of editable properties and parameters (clip data) that dictate how its enclosed content is executed. This makes a clip a dynamic customizable container of musical information and performance data for use not only in one specific Set, but also across all of your Sets and Projects as customized presets. These are called Live Clips. Drag a clip to the Browser to create a dynamic Live Clip.
