.ALC File Extension

Audio clip file created by Ableton Live, an audio production application; saves an audio segment that was imported and edited in the software; often created when cropping or trimming audio; used for saving custom audio segments.

Ableton Live doesn't create ALC files for every imported audio file. For example, if you import a .WAV file, it will keep the WAV file in its original form. However, if you edit the WAV file and save it to your library, then the software creates a new ALC file.

NOTE: Ableton Live creates .ASD audio metadata files when creating ALC clips. This helps speed up the process of using the audio clip.
