Setting up File Types
The following Preferences from the Record/Warp/Launch tab are relevant to the sample les
that are created by recording:
The sample le type you would like Live to create can be chosen from the File Type
chooser in the Record/Warp/Launch Preferences.
The bit depth of the sample le you will create by recording can be chosen from the
Bit Depth chooser in the Record/Warp/Launch Preferences.
You can save time by setting up reasonable defaults for the clips you are recording in the
Record/Warp/Launch Preferences tab. In particular, it is smart to indicate the rough category

Warp Mode

later on a different song tempo, the program will automatically maintain
good sound quality
,

Project folder

Until the Set is saved, it remains at the location speci ed by the Temporary Folder preference
which is found in the Preferences' File/Folder tab. To make sure Live will not run out of disk
space while recording into a new Set, please make sure the Temporary Folder is on a drive/
partition with suf cient free space.
