However, it is not typically advisable to do so. Each asd file stores important information about your samples so that when Ableton Live loads it, loads can quickly check certain parameters about your sample. In a nutshell, if you delete the files Ableton has to reassess each sample when it loads &ndash; causing longer load times. However, if you are an incredibly productive music producer, you may wish to disable .asd files or delete them if they start blocking your hard drive. That said, .asd files are typically tiny &ndash; only about <strong>20kb<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1628452194910\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>Do you need to keep every Ableton asd file?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>For each new Live set or project folder you will work on in the future. I advise keeping them. For an older Live set that will no longer see the light of day, you can go ahead and delete each asd file for those projects. Just find the folder where your samples are stored for those projects and manually delete each asd file.<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1628452219483\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>How do you convert a WAV file to asd?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>Asd files are automatically created for WAV files, as they are samples. Therefore, you do not need to convert WAV files to asd manually. If you are want to make sure that .asd files are being made automatically, check to see if they are by going to <strong>Options<\/strong>, then <strong>Preferences<\/strong>, <strong>File Folders<\/strong>, and check to see if the <strong>Create Analysis Files<\/strong> button is turned <strong>on <\/strong>(showing yellow).<\/p>\n\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"faq-question-1628452265709\" class=\"rank-math-list-item\">\n<h3 class=\"rank-math-question \"><strong>What do asd files do?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<div class=\"rank-math-answer \">\n\n<p>ASD files are metadata files that store all kinds of parameters about your audio sample.

It makes for a quicker load time., which is always important when trying to be time-efficient in your music production.

So wherever you store your samples is where the .asd files will be stored. If you have a general samples folder, you can check where it is by selecting <strong>Options<\/strong>, then <strong>Preferences<\/strong>. From there, select &lsquo;<strong>Library<\/strong>.&rsquo; That is where you will find your sample packs directory. If your sample packs are stored in different folders you can find the directory of your samples by right-clicking on the sample pack in the pack library on the left of the DAW and selecting &lsquo;<strong>Show in explorer<\/strong>&lsquo;.
