when rendering video, set audio to 16bit

Sometimes Ableton sets the bit depth of the PCM to values that aren't 16 bits... This will cause the software to crash on exporting video!

Recording from external synths, loop tips

To avoid latency, use the External Hardware Instrument device. Drag it onto a midi track. Generally, record the audio to a seperate audio-track, then disable the midi once you're done. Preferably record pre-fx, so you get a nice dry-signal. A loop note/trick -When the loop first starts, any reverb/echo will not be present. This can be weird, so it's worth recording an extra measure to use . Eg if your loop is 4 bars. Record 5 bars. Ableton can be configured to start at bar 1, but use bars 2-5 for looping. This way you get both a natural start and a natural loop.
