Use the File/Folder Preferences' Template Save button to save the current Live Set as a
template. Live will use these settings as the initialized, default state for new Live Sets. You
can use this to pre-congure:

Preset devices, like EQs and Compressors, in every track.
Computer key mappings.
MIDI mappings.
The template Live Set, Template.als, is located in Live's Preferences folder and can be
copied or deleted from there. The easiest way to locate this folder is to search your disk for

line in the list makes the Live Set reference the new sample instead of the old one. For
samples used in audio clips, Live retains the clip properties; the Warp Markers are kept
if the new sample has the same or a greater length as the old sample and discarded
otherwise.
