TrueClip

An Ableton Live extension designed to clean up, reset and sequence imported audio stems.

When working with stems or tracking sessions, audio clips often end up trimmed, warped, or maybe scattered across the timeline for some reason. TrueClip automatically restores your clips to their true, unedited states and arranges them sequentially, making your timeline clean and ready for mixing or exporting.

I built TrueClip to automate my own personal workflow for prepping stems.

Usage

Open the extension with right-clicking either on an Audio Track or an Audio Clip, then under Extensions\ find -> TrueClip - Open...

Choose a mode between Prepare Stems and Rename Clips, tweak the settings, then press Run.

Features

TrueClip optimizes your audio clips by:

1. Turning off warps for all clips
2. Putting the clip to the first point in the arrangement (1.1.1.1)
3. Extends the start and end of the clip to the audio's start and end points
4. Turns off the track - so your ears won't get blasted off when you hit play

Any one of these can be turned off, so you can tailor the process to fit your desire.

⚠️New feature:⚠️

• You can rename your track's clips to the track name
• You can do this either on one selected track or all tracks

An important thing to note:

• All features ONLY work on Audio Clips

Prerequisites

If you want to compile the extension from source:

• Node.js ≥ 24.14.1
• Ableton Extensions SDK (create a new folder called vendor/ and place the .tgz SDK files there)

Installation

You need Ableton Live 12.4.5 (extensions should be supported) or higher to work.

1. Download the extension file (.ablx) from the Releases page
2. Open Ableton's Preferences\Extensions
3. Drag & Drop into there
