- Aug 01, 2011 If you have a mac and have sound flower, you can make your main output be soundflower and record directly into Ableton. I do this sometimes to sample iTunes radio. Personally tho, I get fed up with changing my adapter all the time, so I just use Wire Tap Pro for such things these days, but its entirely possible.
fades are a valuable tool. not just for seamlessly joining clips and transparently bringing tracks in and out of a song, they're also a necessary utility for removing zero-crossing pops from your clips.
follow transport: cmd + shift + f (ctrl + shift + f)
Ableton Mac Headphone Output System
following playback let's you keep a careful eye on all the details of your track as it plays. very useful indeed, this shortcut both turns on and turns off the function.
mute tracks: fn + f1, f2, f3, etc. (f1, f2, f3, etc.)
how often do you need to quickly mute something to get reference of the rest of the song? you can quickly mute and unmute tracks 1-8 with the function keys. mind that if you have tracks in groups, even if they are collapsed, they are still considered to be in the order they are in.
record: fn + f9 (f9)
a very useful shortcut for quick recording. note that if you've enabled 'start playback with record' in the record/warp/launch section of the preferences this will also start your transport. handy!
exclusive arm/solo: cmd + click (ctrl + click)
the function of this shortcut will depend on your settings in the record/warp/launch section of the preferences. if you have exclusive arm and solo enabled, cmd (ctrl) + clicking these in the mixer will allow you to arm or solo multiple tracks. if exclusive arm and solo are not enabled, this will allow you to to simultaneously disarm or desolo all other tracks but the one you click.
insert time: cmd + i (ctrl + i)
it can be a pain to highlight half of your project and move it a few bars just to make a little room for more. this shortcut makes that no problem. don't forget you can delete time as well (via cmd (ctrl) + shift + delete) so don't worry about getting too exact with the amount of time you add.
duplicate time: cmd + shift + d (ctrl + shift + d)
this shortcut is great for creating variations and 'children' from your current loops. just duplicate a few bars over and make adjustment to the patterns and sounds and you've got a b-section!

paste time: cmd + shift + v (ctrl + shift + v)
you don't always want everything moved over, I know. so just copy what you need and paste it right into the middle of your song!
loop selection: cmd + l (ctrl + l)
a great tool for looping whatever you have highlighted. in my opinion this makes session view obsolete for all but live applications. this same shortcut is very useful inside clips where it will snap the clip loop to the selection.
more looping shortcuts: cmd + shift + l, cmd + arrow (ctrl + shift + l, ctrl + arrow)
more tools for working with loops in arrangement view. cmd (ctrl) + shift + l will select the loop to make it 'active'. from there, you can hold cmd and use the arrow keys to expand or shorten the loop (by a factor of two) or move it around your song.
midi tracks and clips: cmd + shift + t and cmd + shift + m (ctrl + shift + t and ctrl + shift + m)
we'll go into the more common shortcuts now for anyone missing out (I was definitely a late-bloomer with some of these, I empathize). create a midi track and midi clip speedy-quick!
quantize: cmd + shift + u (ctrl + shift + u)
you can quantize with cmd (ctrl) + u but if you want control over the settings you'll want to add shift. works for both midi and warped audio.
group devices: cmd + g (ctrl +g)
cmd (ctrl) + g does a lot of things and undoubtedly you're already using it for this and grouping tracks. one of the best features of ableton imo.
open preferences: cmd + , (ctrl + ,)
cmd + , gives you quick access to the preferences on nearly every osx application, ableton included.
consolidate: cmd + j (ctrl + j)
I have to mention consolidate, just because it changed my life. incredibly useful to quickly 'bounce' several clips into one. flattens any warp adjustments you make. works for both midi and audio. HUGE.
those are some of my favorites, hope you find them useful and time-saving! for me, the speed of ableton enhances and inspires creativity.
