y'know rob, i wouldn't have started you off w/ableton live.
it's a great program, originally conceived as a DJ aid, allowing them
to insert parts on the fly, during performance (hence the "live").

your call, but i think it'd go much faster for you if you used a
program that functions more in the traditional "tape machine" sense,
w/ heavier editing capabilities. the learning curve's much smaller.
there's a free 8 track version of acid at www.acidplanet.com.
the miracle of this program is the way it auto-syncs "acidized" files.
you merely line up the tabs, and you're in sync.
there's also a free DL of a monthly "8pack" to experiment on.

it wouldn't be much of a diversion to check it out, and i have a feeling
you'll be glad you did.
