The color skin in the video looks cool. How did you make it and where can I get that?
There’s an app called Ableton Live Skin Editor for this. You can get it here. There are plenty more to choose from, too. 🙂
Hi Madeleine, yesterday I found Sonic Bloom. Cool website. I see a lot of interesting information. Thanks for sharing. Greetings from Colombia.
Thanks, Pablo. Greetings back from Berlin. 🙂
Nice little tip! I work with odd time signatures all the time. Any idea how to embed them into scenes? i.e. I may want a scene to have 2 bars of 4 and a bar of 7… Been trying to figure this out for months.
Anyway, great site – always useful info. Thanks!
While the length is determined by the clips, you can write the time signature into the scene name, e.g. 7/8 and Live will change it accordingly.
