Ableton Live Tutorial: Matching Clip Lengths In Arrangement View

A customer of mine recently asked how to match one audio clip’s length to another in Arrangement View. I get this question fairly often, so I put together a quick and dirty video on how to achieve this with warp markers in Ableton Live.

It’s also important to note that you can do this the old-fashioned way without warp mode by simply changing the pitch of one sound so that it’s length changes, too. Just turn off warp mode and adjust the transpose setting on the clip. Lowering the pitch will make the sample longer, and raising the pitch will make the sample shorter.

Here’s the video. My apologies for the lack of voice-over, but like I said this one is just quick and dirty!
