This makes editing multiple takes much faster. You don’t have to fill up the timeline with one long take that will mostly be thrown out in the end anyway. Live 11’s comping implementation works very smoothly, and it’s great for situations when you’re figuring out parts, trying different vocal inflections, or just trying to perform the perfect 16-bar beat. The highlighted sections from the take lanes are the sections that playback from the main lane. For any parts you want to keep, you select those part and hit Enter, choose Copy Selection to the Main Lane from the context menu, or use the Draw tool to select regions, and that portion will be pasted seamlessly to the main lane of the track.Ī MIDI drums recording using Live 11’s new comping ability.

The resulting take lanes have an audition (speaker icon) button in their track header for you to listen to them. It continues to create take lanes horizontally until you stop. In the Arrangement timeline, turn on a looped region, begin recording audio or MIDI, and when the region reaches the end of its loop, another take lane will be created underneath the main track lane. Many popular DAWs have featured comping for years, so it’s cool that Live users can now benefit from this time-saving function. You can then select any portion of those takes you want to keep, and compile those portions, or “comp” them, into a single track.
