Method 1 – Drag and drop via Tab key

The default hotkey for switching between Live’s two modes is your QWERTY keyboard’s Tab key, and you can use it to transfer clips from one view to the other and back again. In Session View, click to select the clips you want to transfer – individual ones or a multiple selection – and click-hold on one of the selected clips. While holding, hit the Tab key to switch to Arrangement view, then drag the clip to the desired position in the timeline and release – simple! The ability to select multiple clips at once lets you build up a solid arrangement fairly quickly using this method, and the bonus is that it also works in reverse. If you record a new idea directly into the Arrangement View that you want to experiment with further, you can drag it into Session View using the Tab key in exactly the same way.
