    Hi guys,

    After al these Live years i still havent found a way (ok i never asked) to use the loop function correctly because when you loop a piece in the arrangement view and then go to the clip view (so you select a clip from the arrangement view) to change some notes and press start and stop.
    The loop get started from the beginning of the clip not the set up loop region in the arrangement view.
    You can change the start point of the clip but when you have multiple clips you need to change them all in order to have the same starting point.
    But the only way to 'solve'' this is to click on the speaker thing to click your start point but in order to loop this you need to click manually.

    I hope its not a stupid question because i like to work this ways actually, so maybe its just a ''problem'' for people that like to use it in this way, like looping and changing stuff without stopping the loop.

    Select the clip by clicking similar to where the red line is in the image below, this will open the clip view and start/stop the clip at bar 4 in this example

    Rather than clicking the clips header as below, which selects the whole clip and makes start/stop play it from bar 1.

    Hope this is what you meant mate :)
