Ableton/Live/UG/08 Clip View/03 Extended Clip Properties
- Launch controls and MIDI bank and program controls. Launch controls appear only for Session clips, so an Arrangement audio clip has no panel here and an Arrangement MIDI clip shows only bank and program.
- Empty slots split a track's clips into groups; Follow Actions set how clips in a group trigger one another.
- Launch controls set how clips respond to mouse, keys and MIDI notes, launch timing, scrubbing, and how note velocity affects volume. Both are covered in Ableton/Live/UG/16 Launching Clips.
- A MIDI clip can send a bank and program change when it launches, so each clip can call up a different sound on an external synth or plug-in. Live offers 128 banks, each with 128 sub-banks of 128 programs; check how many your synth supports.
- Leave the choosers at "—" to send nothing.
