Workflow utility

Elisabeth Homeland

Keep Collapsed & Keep Opened

$4.00

These devices are included with my other MaxForLive device : GETOUTOFMYWAY.
But you can get them separately as well.
(both of them works as individual devices without GOOMW ! )

If you put them on a track, the track will be forced to either always be in a collapsed or expanded state.

Really Like it

I use it to manage a region track as suggested on product introduction video.
These devices are super easy to use.
I can't wait to use them with another device, Get Out Of My Way.

Very useful for live playing sets

I love this small utility. I use it (mainly "keep collapsed") in my live playing set, to keep utility tracks minimized, like the parts track on top, with titles of the songs. I also have some kind of aux tracks (IN mode) that just process incoming sound and do not need to be ever opened (they don't have actual sound or midi data).

Keep Collapsed

If you put the Keep Collapsed device into a track, the track will be forced to always be in a collapsed state.

Keep Opened

If you put the Keep Opened device into a track, the track will be forced to always be in an expanded state.

Region Track

I use the Keep Collapsed device to create a "region track" at the top of my Live Set.

In GOOMW

This device pair comes with GOOMW, but you can buy it separately.

Check it out
  • Place the devices in your Ableton Live User Library.
  • Default User Library locations:
    • Windows: \USERS\[USERNAME]\DOCUMENTS\ABLETON\USER LIBRARY
    • Mac: MACINTOSH HD/USERS/[USERNAME]/MUSIC/ABLETON/USER LIBRARY
  • Live needs to analyze your User Library after adding devices. This process may take some time. In the meantime, you can drag and drop the devices from your User Library onto your tracks.
  • After Live found them you'll be able to access them from Live's Browser.
