    hi. is there a way to start playback at mouse cursor when in clip/pìano view?
    i can do this easily in arrangement by clicking CTRL + Mouse, but in clip view the only thing that works is SHIFT + Mouse and it resumes playback wherever it was, not from mouse.
    thanks

    what version are you using? ctrl + spacebar is the same as ctrl + mouse click here, it simply restarts the clip
    edit: to clarify, as i've already said, this works fine when you have stuff in arrangement. but if you're only using the session view, it doesn't, that's what I was wondering

    Try this one then. think it works.
    Move you're pointer just above the yellow line and hit space

    Oh in season view, I don't think you can, you can get it to play from the start of a different bar if the loop is longer then 1 bar by double click just below the loop brace say around bar 2 it will flash where bar 2 starts then if you press ctrl + space it'll play from the start of bar 2. Only other way round it would be to drag the start marker to point you want to play from each time.
