Ableton/Live/UG/09 Audio Clips Tempo and Warping/02 Warping/01 Warping Options in Settings
- Record, Warp & Launch Settings decide how new samples load, depending on whether Live judges them short or long:
- Loop/Warp Short Samples: Unwarped One Shot, Warped One Shot, Warped Loop, or Auto (the default), which picks the best fit.
- Auto-Warp Long Samples, on by default, warps long samples on load with a Warp Marker on each bar's first beat; off, they load unwarped.
- Default Warp Mode: the stretching algorithm for newly warped samples, Beats at first.
