Ah, sounds good!

Hmm, renaming a clip is indeed rather important to have working.
For recorded clips, I think it makes sense to at least use the track number as 
well.
when using the track number, it's pretty obvious it was a recording, not an 
import, so naming recording-1, or recording-2 is a bit redundant.

What about, recording on Track 1 gives clip names:

track-1_take-1, second recording, track-1_take-2 and so on ?

I thought adding adding the song number would be usefull too, but maybe that 
doesn't make that much sense.
