    Hey guys, i have an 8 bar loop midi clip in arrangement
    My problem is when i record few melodies with the keyboard and the loop goes back to the beginning doing its thing: then everything gets overwritten by silence.
    Now how can i get my ableton to not touch the notes i just recorded but keep the recording and the loop going so that i can layer on those notes.

    This must be ridiulously simple. Right?
    Sorry about English btw

    in ableton there is a button up by the transport that allows you to overdub while in loop, whether it be automation or notes, if you have the "help" screen on, by hovering up there you should be able to find it! Hope that helps!
