MIDI Through​

The MIDI Through setting determines whether Flow passes MIDI events through to other devices or blocks them.

  • Default: Off.

Note Preview​

The Note Preview setting determines whether you can hear a note when you change its pitch in the Trigger state. This is useful when you are working with sliced samples or drum kits, as it lets you audition the sound of each note.

The Note Preview only works when Ableton Live playback is stopped, so it won't interfere with your tracks. The previewed note will be played at a default velocity of 100.

  • Default: On.

About​

This section displays information about the Flow version you are currently running, your operating system and Max version, and the update status.

Update Indicator​

Flow automatically checks for updates on startup, so you can enjoy the best possible experience with it.

If there is an update available, you will see a notification indicator on top of the System tab button that looks like a small circle. Simply click on the System tab button, download the new version and follow the installation guide.
