New item and slide to the right to loop the item as many times as you want. Then all you have to do is drag the edge of the Once you trim it (just drag the edges) to get the loop start and stop points, you'll want to "glue" the item, which basically renders it in-place as a new file. Then you can drag just that part down to create a new track. But you can easily and quickly copy "selected area of selected item," which lets you select the part you want to loop, and copy only that part.

Not like Live, which is unique in that it isn't linear like most DAWs.

I saw in your video (she was referring to the Reaper Tutorial Video) that from an imported audio track it is possible to clip a part to keep and delete the rest but would it be possible to keep the entire track while only looping a part of it? I remember that it was possible in Live, which was very useful to avoid "manual" pre-clipping editing with another software. So her questions and my answers are below. So she wanted to know if she could do some of the same things in Reaper that she used to do in Ableton Live.Īfter answering her e-mail, I thought it would be good information to share in a post. Select each track name and label them to represent what that tracks are doing.Yesterday I received an e-mail form someone who used to work with Ableton Live, but can no longer use that program. It also labels the audio tracks based on what the track names are, and not the clip names. Ableton exports multiple audio tracks, so if you have a vocal and a snare on one single track, it will make things a little bit crazy. Whenever you send your files to someone else, it’s important to make sure the person it’s going to knows what every file contains. Ableton has a very simple and straight forward way of doing this, so let’s go through it now! Step 1 – Label Your Tracksīefore exporting anything, you need to make sure everything is labeled. Multiple tracks that you’re rendering at one time can be put together to recreate the song. Thankfully, Ableton makes it quick and easy for you to export your stems!Ī stem is a single element of the song exported as a single file. If you are sending your song to us online for mixing and mastering, it’s very important to make sure your files are sent correctly.
