Device Details


Overview

Name | Version: clip color v2 2.0
Author: vair
Device Type: Audio Effect
Description: Simple little device to change the color of the selected clip. You can map the buttons to keyboard. Compared to v1, in v2 you can super easily change and add colors (max is 30 colors).


I use it mainly when tracking, using the following color code :
red -> Bad take
orange  -> Ok take
green -> Great take
white -> time issue 
pink -> something else to be taken care of
blue -> pitch issue
You can easily open the patch to change colors or add colors. 


Note : currently it doesn't work on a selection of various clips. It's a real bummer for linked tracks (current workaround is right click and select color).

This looks like such a handy little tool for organizing sessions more clearly.
I really like the practical color-coding system you shared — it makes tracking takes much more intuitive.
The limitation with multiple clip selections is a downside, but even with that, it seems like a great workflow enhancer for Live users.
