I'm trying to use this in 12.2.5 and I'm not able to get the ring to turn green. I create the clip in the drummer track and click on the unchanged ring and nothing happens. Is there anything else I should be doing to ensure it's turned on and set to generate? I think it's a great idea and I'm eager to make good use of it.

Thanks for the work!

HI @mysterymachinestudio i had to recently change the UI so that it looks fine on any Ableton live theme such as dark, light, mid dark etc. This is the reason i moved away from the green color. Can you select a empty clip and then click the big button. Then see if the clip has some notes in it?
