Session View
In Live's Arrangement View, as in all traditional sequencing programs, everything happens
along a xed song timeline. For a number of applications, this is a limiting paradigm:
When playing live, or when DJing, the order of pieces, the length of each piece and
the order of parts within each piece is generally not known in advance.
In the theatre, sound has to react to what happens on stage.
When working along with a piece of music or a lm score, it can be more efcient and
inspirational to start with an improvisation, which is later rened into the nal product.
This is exactly what Live's unique Session View is for.
