Set the tempo
Change the project tempo by saying the number, mid-session, without stopping what you're playing.
Say it like this
Each of these was run against a real Ableton session on every model below, and the reply is what Tine actually said — quoted, not rewritten. Switch tabs to see how the answer changes with the model.
These are a floor, not a syntax — you can be a good deal vaguer, and how vague scales with the model you run. The smaller local model wants a clear verb and a clear target; the hosted one takes the most roundabout phrasing you can throw at it.
Also in playing & recording
- Start and stop playback
One word each. "Play" and "stop" run the transport in about a third of a second, without reaching for the space bar — useful when both hands are on an instrument and the keyboard isn't.
- The metronome, in one word
Say “metronome” and the click comes on; say it again and it’s off. A button, not a sentence — it answers in under half a second, and it reads the click’s real state first, so it still works after you’ve toggled it by hand.
- Launch clips and scenes
Fire a named clip or a whole scene, and stop them again, without hunting for the right slot in a full Session grid.
- Arm a track and set monitoring
Arm the track you're about to play and set its monitoring, so the take starts on your terms instead of after a detour to the mouse.
Tine does this in Ableton Live 12.3.x
