CHAPTER 5. MANAGING FILES AND SETS 74
5.13.4 Where Should I Save My Live Sets?
You can save Live Sets anywhere you want, but saving to the Library or pre-existing Project
folders can cause problems, and should be reserved for special cases. You should only save
Live Sets in the Library if you intend to use them as templates for other Live Sets. Likewise,
you should only save a Live Set to an existing Project if it is somehow related to the Project
for example, an alternate version of a song that's already in the Project.
5.13.5 Where Should I Save My Live Clips?
If you'd like to have your Live Clips available in all of your Projects, create a Library sub-folder
and save your clips there. You can also save clips anywhere else on your computer.
5.13.6 Can I Use My Own Folder Structure Within a Project Folder?
You can organize your les any way you want within a Project, but you'll need to use the File
Manager to relink the les that you've moved around:
1) In Live's Browser or via your operating system, reorganize the les and folders
within your Project folder.
2) Navigate to the Project folder in the Browser and choose Manage Project via the
(PC) /
Ctrl
(Mac) context menu.
3) If you've changed the original location of any samples used in the Project, the
Missing Samples section of the File Manager will indicate this. Click the Locate
button to search for the samples.
4) Since you know that your samples are all in the Project folder, unfold Automatic
Search. Then enable the Search Project and Fully Rescan Folders options. Finally,
click Go to initiate the search.
5) When searching is complete, click Collect and Save at the bottom of the File
Manager to update the Project.
