How Can I Save Presets Into My Current Project?
As long as you're working in a Project (meaning that you've saved your current Live Set),
every device in the Device Browser will show a Current Project sub-folder. You can copy
presets from other Browser locations to the current project by
Ctrl
(PC) /
Alt
(Mac)-
dragging them. You can also save presets directly to the current project by dragging from
the device's title bar and dropping into the Current Project. You can then use the File
Management tools, collect any referenced samples, etc.
5.13.3
Can I Work On Multiple Versions of a Set?
If you'd like to work on different versions of the same Live Set, save them into the same
Project. This will usually be the Project that was created when you saved the rst version
of the Live Set. If a Project contains multiple Live Sets it will only collect one copy of any
samples used by the various versions, which can save disk space and help with organization.
5.13.4
Where Should I Save My Live Sets?
You can save Live Sets anywhere you want, but saving to the Library or pre-existing Project
folders can cause problems, and should be reserved for special cases. You should only save
Live Sets in the Library if you intend to use them as templates for other Live Sets. Likewise,
you should only save a Live Set to an existing Project if it is somehow related to the Project
for example, an alternate version of a song that's already in the Project.
5.13.5
Where Should I Save My Live Clips?
If you'd like to have your Live Clips available in all of your Projects, create a Library sub-folder
and save your clips there. You can also save clips anywhere else on your computer.
