Tabs
Bounces
Every bounce on the project, with:
- Name, Type, Last Modified, Size, and Runtime
- Comments: how many timed comments the bounce has
- Plays: how many times you’ve played it (hover for details)
- Waveform: click to play from that spot
- Play, Share, and Make primary
- Link: only shows up when the project has bounces from outside its folder. Click to unlink
Right click a bounce to play it, share it, make it primary, reveal it in Finder or File Explorer, copy its path, or unlink it. See Bounces for how bounces get here and how to add more.
Sessions
Every .als in the project with its Live version, last modified date, and track and scene counts. From here you can open a set in Ableton, play a MAKID Session Preview, open the Session Workspace with Arrangement, or Make primary to pick which set opens by default.
Comments
Every timed comment on the project’s bounces and sessions. Click one to play from that spot, or delete it.
Shares
Every share link you’ve made from this project’s bounces, with play counts, when you shared it, when it expires, and buttons to open, copy, or expire it. See Sharing.
History
How the project got made, day by day. MAKID logs a set every time it notices you saved it, so you’ll see things like “Saved Night Drive.als 4 times, 18 → 22 tracks, 124 BPM”. You also get every bounce you exported, when each set was started, and the backups Ableton keeps in the project’s Backup folder.
Each bounce shows the day its audio was written. Export over the same file name and History moves it to the new day.
- Saves marked Seen live were logged while MAKID was running, a few minutes after you saved. Everything else comes from the dates on your files.
- Hit play on a bounce to hear it, or the arrangement button to open that set in the Session Workspace.
- MAKID logs saves from now on. Older projects show what the dates on your files say until you save them again.
- The log is kept in the project folder too, so it comes back if you reinstall MAKID or move the project to a new computer.
Export creation record
Distributor or label asking if your track is AI? Click the ⋮ next to the summary at the top of the History tab and choose Export creation record…, or right click the project and choose it there. MAKID saves a PDF with:
- When you started the project and every day you worked on it
- Every save MAKID logged, with the set’s tempo, track count and a fingerprint (SHA-256) of the file
- Your bounces and when you exported them
- The Ableton backups it found on disk
- What’s in the main set: audio and MIDI tracks, where the audio came from (recorded in the project, Splice, Ableton packs) and which plugins it uses
The record gets made on your computer and nothing is uploaded. File paths stay out of it.
