The Prodigy!!!

Of course, Sasha the master of Ableton having built his own custom Maven Controller.

Underworld and just about ever other DAW used in their 4 mac set up.

Telefon Tel Aviv are amazing.

I think Daft Punk are actually DJ's as individuals, Music Creators as a collective - i agree though their set is basically DJ ing their own music...I would love to know how much or little they could get away with or without doing on stage...Its a fine line between Dj'ing with Live and making up the set list as you go along and the artistry comes down to good track mixing, but then you could argue as Daft Punk proabably play to a pre determined 'Set-List' they may do even less than a DJ making up the set list as he/she goes along, but then are excused cos they at least created the tunes in the first place....

I saw an Ableton Live 'secrets revealed' night at Ministry of sound 2 weeks ago...It was rubbish...The only secret revealed was how little they actual did on stage...Triggering rows and rows of scenes in order with no mixing up, no apparent mixing in general, very dissapointing...

Anyway, my 2c's.,..

that's strange I read an interview when they reunited Cevin was a huge Logic fan.
Of course that was what '04? I guess he switched recently. I tried using logic I can see why if he did.

why do so many people think like this?
i'd rather use a 4-track tape recorder, cause my musical ideas would be the same :)

yet you are reading the ableton forums like the rest of us. Call me when you get a 4 track that supports midi.

And for the record rabblebasics, the super charged creative positivity and media aware conciousness that is the at the heart of Bassnectar has nothing to do with "government conspiracies."
