100+ Ableton Live Shortcuts

[@onceuponasynth]

What's your favourite shortcut?

[@davidwoods1337]

definitely the 0 key to disable various things. I used Ableton for a couple of years before someone told me that and it blew my mind

[@akibakemono]

Cmd+F is incredibly useful, but toggling division changes with Cmd+1, Cmd+2, and especially toggling triplets with Cmd+3 are going to get used all the time. Also, W for zooming to fit horizontally is awesome, as long as the Computer MIDI Keyboard option isn't on.

[@RealEsther]

f10

[@surveil3548]

When I'm uninspired? Alt+f4

[@DK-qe6uo]

Command Q

[@NeilGuise]

Would love to see this kind of rapid fire no nonsense overview of hidden Push 2 commands 🙏 thanks!

[@MisterExcelsior]

“Thanks for watching hope you learned a thing or two” Me: *Learns 95 things* This was the type of level up I needed!

And yes, these high density, no fillers straight to the essence lessons are very welcomed, bits of knowledge are scattered everywhere on KZbin, but YOUR experience shows in YOUR flow, that is most def niche here on KZbin, so yes please more of YOUR flowness, cheers from Germany!

[@shinecurious]

WTF! It took me a year to gather all these moves, you know creativity is liberated when you fly through your DAW, Props to the good work ninja!

[@jabari9-11]

[@zkdontplay]

this might be one of the best videos of my life

[@kendrumusic5554]

on point shortcuts tutorial !

[@Bashanvibe]

My favorite is the capture short cut!!! Now that I have a new understanding of the DAW I love the zoom short cut and the mute now that I understand!!!

[@MisterExcelsior]

Shortcuts make the difference between walking through projects vs sprinting. Work smarter not harder! Prime Example!

[@tristanpaxton51]

Option U! Omg, I've needed that one

[@ourfriendgus]

Thank you for this! I had no idea about W and H!

[@joelbatolucas]

dude's a king of shortcuts

[@bobbysands5385]

Excellent! Thank you!

[@Notalotofit]

best vid I've seen so far, no time wasted

[@AERIEDM]

That's how you do a tutorial video. Thank you.

[@geeroth5368]

You are a savior! 🙏 Thank you for this amazing video. So many great time savers! So very much appreciated!

[@starseedhealingcircle]

I love the Automation shortcuts!!! 🩵

[@motelsurgeon]

OPT+Drag automation curves. That and the click+drag time audio time stretch. I lost those when I stopped using Logic. Thank you!!

[@marekstora]

I probably will go back to this every week. All of these are useful but I think I like Z/X and H/W shortcuts the most. As well as SHIFT or CTRL + mousewheel for efficient arrangement view navigation.

[@maxwellgentili218]

Awsome video! I loved to hear about the automation shortcuts I feel like it really demonstrates what they had in mind for design choices when it comes to automation, making as customizable and malleable as possible!

[@storehausholdingllc406]

Thanks so much for this!! I've recently switched to Live 10, and this is a game changer. Thanks for being thorough, and not just rambling to be heard!!

[@AsherBKNY]

Love this! Short, simple, straight to the point, no BS 👍 Thank you sir! Happy New Year!

[@nevernsubermoney8851]

This was so helpful. Thanks man.

[@pfeffelofsky]

this is the best channel on youtube!

[@MatthieuVlogs]

the shift control/command c thing is insane 🤩

[@toono21]

this is mental, the bestest, many thanks

[@jasonphoenix]

Well put together, worth watching & taking notes!

[@skk6811]

cmd + I also inserts selected time range in the beginning of the selection, so you don't have to type in manually

[@jspiro]

This was tremendous. Exactly what I needed. A few of the selection shortcuts don't seem to work in 11 though. The three shortcuts I was hoping to learn, coming from Logic: 1) Go back to beginning of song/play selected region (e.g. equivalent to logic region, not a selected range) 2) Arrow keys move the cursor around in arrangement, shift-arrow selects, but how to deselect so you can go back go moving around? If I move my selection over a clip it slices it up! 3) How to move from note to note in midi-not move the notes, but advance to next note without the mouse. Generally, Ableton seems more mouse-oriented than I was hoping, but maybe I just need to customize more!

[@sashazlobin]

I watch it again and again, thank you!

[@nikifidler]

Very useful and practical with no nonsense. cheers

[@binface9]

Thanks! This video is so useful

[@WilmarBoer]

Thanks a lot! Learning shortcuts is essential for speeding up you're workflow

[@cXrisp]

CTRL + ALT + Click and drag -- makes grab-hand pan around your session or arrangement view.

[@camilosolorzano1983]

Thank you!!!! we fixed a dumb thing the band had with the initial sketch. One of the commands you showed me worked out perfectly!

[@negvey]

very nice explanation, good job

[@Dt33335]

you missed one awesome shortcut.. to hide the browser and inputs and detail pannel at bottom or midi note editor you don't have to press Cmd or Ctrl just press Option or Alt like Alt+B or Alt +L but you have to press the Alt which is on the RIGHT side of the keyboard below L

[@WoodyPianoShack]

awesome, if i can remember 10 then that's a win

[@infideluxe]

So so so good. Thank you.

[@athulcarun]

That was an awesome video fast paced and quiet informative. I came to this video searching for a keyboard shortcut to highlight a track so that I can rename it without touching the mouse. Can someone help me with it... Thank you.

[@johninfl]

I saw a bright light and angels singing...Thanks much.

[@SerafimSmig]

SUPER HELPFUL! Thanks!

[@jensschettler1732]

Awesome video! But is there a option to just hear the selectet clip in the arrangement? Like it studio one you have a little speaker tool to play just the clip you click on.

[@sleepytutorials8729]

[@hankhomaomes2830]

[@AndreiBlanda]

So useful bro thank you

[@hiddensky7050]

Thanq so much sir❤️

[@SweetScaleTV]

Ive looked everywhere what is the shortcut double loop length ....not duplicate loop length.

[@mosys5838]

is there short-cut to switch between note and envolope view in a midi or audio clip?

[@pimvanderploeg2509]

hey, is there a shortcut to automatically let adjacent channels follow up i/o numbers? for instance you select channel 1-8. in channel one you route the audio in from external input 1, is there a key command to let the adjacent selected channels automatically route the audio in following up external input 1 to channel one? (external input 2 channel 2, external input 3 channel 3 etc)? been looking for this for a while!

[@n0ldin]

awesome! but if u want to draw the automation turn off the grid that give u freedom to do more on the field and also u could lock the automation just by button right in the right corner

[@boflotable]

very useful nice, thanks

[@aj-comedy]

amazing - been looking for this exact video. What if you want to mute tracks past track 8?

[@azzafadaly]
