Arrangement View and Session View are two different ways to view and edit music in Ableton Live, a digital audio workstation. Arrangement View is a linear timeline that shows the arrangement of your song, while Session View is a grid-based interface that allows you to trigger and loop clips. Both views have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the best way to use them depends on your workflow and the type of music you’re making.
Arrangement View is typically used for arranging and editing the overall structure of your song. It shows the entire song on a single timeline, making it easy to see how the different sections fit together. You can also use Arrangement View to add automation, create fades, and mix your song. Session View, on the other hand, is more suited for live performance and improvisation. It allows you to trigger and loop clips on the fly, and you can easily create complex arrangements by combining different clips. Session View is also a great way to experiment with different ideas and sounds.
