Reverse while audio is playing

Post by YILA » Sun Jul 23, 2006 10:57 am

Why does audio have to stop to reverse a clip?

i experienced this too a few months ago. but the last few times i did it it worked without stopping. very strange.

i changed to 5.2 and mac, so maybe it's because of this?

but what do you mean by 'stopping'?
stop the transport in total or a small drop in volume while reversing?

It says 'this action will force you to stop audio... continue?'. same as when you save a song when you're playing.

One thing that I noted is that it will stop when it is first calulating the reverse. Once that is done you can reverse it and play it forward just by hitting the button and it will not stop the audio.

Hello,

Reverse should work without stopping the audio. What version do you use? Please try 5.2.1 and see how it goes.

If you don't get it to work without stopping audio, please send me your log.txt file to amaury@ableton.com.

Kind regards,

Amaury
