An annoying problem I have with Live .asd files is when you burn them to a cd and the burned filename gets truncated because of the filename length restrictions of the cd format the .wav file won't read the .asd file when you copy the file back to your hard drive and you have to rewarp it. Of course the answer is to keep the filenames short, but I like to include the artist, track title and label in my filenames to make it easier for sorting. Ableton really needs to set it up so you can copy warp markers between clips easily.

Even better would be if they released the file specification so people could write .asd warper utilities. Then I can finally realize my dream of warping tracks on my pocket pc while I'm at work!

Is there a possibility you're saving/moving/copying them as 'read only'
files?
they don't work then for some reason - not sure why.

But you SHOULD definitely be able to save them and use them whenever.

Maybe others might know more?
