Ableton Forum

just checked out this vid and installed the preset, etc. take an organ break, chopped it, sliced it....i'm wondering....what exactly is unique about this preset? seems just like a stock sampler to me, unless i'm missing something...

didn't click the link, but experiment with delay, reverb, gated reverb, flanger....layer 2 claps together, but reverse one of them. you'll probably find something you like that you will have created yourself.

THanks guys - I really just want to switch between devices and tracks like you can with the APC 40. I would also like to control VST's with a controller - The Automap thing is confusing as hell, although i've just spent a long time watching Novation tutorials online and have a learned a few things, ...

looking for some advice here. I own the MKII - I've had it for a couple years now. When I got it I was just starting on Ableton. The other day a buddy and I had a session at his place with his APC40. I REALLY loved how you could control everything on there, switching tracks, switching to different d...

good thread. i would also recommend putting limitations on your tools (instrument racks, effect racks, drums, etc). I recently did that and i'm getting more stuff done. I'm still watching a lot of tutorials to help with workflow, and to just learn how to do shit. Too many plug ins is trouble for fin...

any and all feedback is appreciated. cheers y'all, keep making your art.

i put a snippet of the song i'm working on regarding this bass sound on my soundcloud page

here's the link: https://soundcloud.com/derekrusso/live-bass

if anyone wants to listen for a sec and give any constructive criticism regarding the bass sound I would very much appreciate it.

If you get that Sansamp, run it direct to your interface and then load a cab sim on the track. That should be all you need, except maybe some cleanup EQ and/or a compressor in the mixing stage. Don't load a full amp sim, just the cabinet, the sansamp acts at the amp head. I record my bass straight ...

thanks y'all.....did a little research and found the SansAmp Bass Driver DI has been recommended by many. I went on my local craigslist and did a search, and lo and behold someone listed one for sale on the same day for $100. Having that along with Guitar Rig will be sufficient for me I think. It al...

When you have multiple kick drums in a drum rack with other instruments, there's no way to do this. If this is really what you want to do, then I would duplicate your drum rack and use one drum rack for only your kicks, and then use the other for your other drums. You probably want to add some comp...

I've got a beat I made in my custom "Pete Rock" drum rack, which has 5-6 cells with 128 samplers in them. Kicks, snares, hi hats, etc. I'll use 2 or 3 cells of the same Kick Sampler Rack so that I can select different kick samples, and layer up several of them on each other. Edit according...

edited for a less dickhead response. sorry, I get fired up about this subject.

there is no reason anyone should ever ever DJ with anything other than 320 or Lossless. If I go see you DJ at a club, and you are blasting 192 mp3's down my ear, you shouldn't be behind the decks. Period.

nice, i ran into that myself a couple days ago.
