this is one that ive just realised is probably best for my way of working, and wished i had copped it earlier. its nothing mad, but i reckon could help you get over some of the bad things that ableton brings.
usually, i work in session view, looping away anything from synths, recording in my grooveboxes, impulses etc....
i found that stuff can get very loopy very quickly with Live, because session view is always looping, and if you have audio there, its not that apparent that editing is piss-easy. it wasnt to me anyway.

so ive began jumping alot more from arrangement to session view.

-i leave a blank canvas on arrangement view.
-copy whatever clips i have in session, all at once, and paste into arrangment
-slightly change up the pattern, subtle, dramtic whatever..
-consolidate the clips, and paste right back into session, under the last group of clips, and set them to loop.

if you do this just a couple of times, ull see how simple but effective this is. futhermore, if you assign a number on the keypad to tigger each group of loops, u can jam it out nicely.

this is something so basic i was kicking myself i hadnt done it properly earlier. but doing it consciously now speeds up my workflow ad infinitum, and makes the tracks way less obvious and loopy.

hope that helps
