Any helpful suggestions/tutorial links?
Thanks.

1 - Have your sound as close as you want it to be (since you will not be able to edit the synth)
2 - Freeze Track
3 - Flatten Track
4 - Do whatever you'd like to your now existing audio clip (instead of MIDI)

You can also use the resampling feature in the audio tracks, click on the input and Click Resampling, arm and record. Or record the track lane instead.

Couldn't you unfreeze the track after you're done though? I'm honestly still trying
to grasp this whole concept of resampling, I dont really understand it or see why
its useful. Whats the point of resampling something if you cant even go back and
change it. Isn't it basically layering sounds anyways?

I cant select that feature because i'm rewiring reason into ableton, and reason
needs to be selected.

Do the freeze thing, or just record your soloed track into a separate audio track. Make sure you click the "in" box, and make sure your input is set to resampling, or the track you're recording. Always save your original track, just deactivate it. If you want to change it later you can.

It's useful because it opens up a whole other level of editing. Especially in ableton where you can easily timestretch / repitch audio. You can chop up lead sounds, mix them with other leads, splice bass parts together, make a wobble double time for half a bar, etc. The possibilities are endless.

... and that's before you load it into a sampler

Appreciate the help man, thanks.
So I froze the track, and then flattened it.
I know have an audio clip instead of midi,
I'm not really sure what to do from here.

How do I combine it with other sounds, etc..?
