Ableton Forum

Speaking of, if anyone's got any ideas on the next one, feel free to add it to this thread. I've had a few suggestions already from various people, but it'd be good to hear some other opinions!

How about breakdowns and FX

I don't know if I'm allowed to contribute as I haven't seen all your tutorials, but I liked the Reason-tutorials from boyinaband on youtube click this, where he goes through the production of a whole tune... Maybe you could do something similar but with focus on ableton?

Hello,
i have buy you both tutorials ; drums, bass& synth, very good thing, thank for you work

Please make a "reverb in the musik produktion" tutorial, with song example.
I have big problems with this.


sorry for me bad english.

Hey Timothy - I bought your first set of tutorials on making a Producing Live Drums for House Music. I really enjoyed it and watched it several times. The one thing I wished was different (and I almost emailed you about this) was that I thought it ended a little too abruptly without some sort of summary. It would have been especially nice to have a final chapter with the drum loop we built shown working in a mix, or maybe a little bit of time talking about how you would break up and modify the original loop to live in an arrangement. I realize that could be a whole new set of vids, but maybe just a teaser at the end showing how the loop can be used in a real mix.

Thanks again for taking the time to make these.
EG

xtreme - you're the second person to mention that to me in the past few months. I never even thought about it really… I was thinking that I'd basically given you some new tools and that the rest would be up to how you wanted to use them. I can totally see your point, but I also think that it could also turn into a whole other set of videos.

Good suggestions on other content as well from the other guys. Breakdowns/fx wasn't something I had thought about, but that I do lots of in my current stuff

yeah, breakdowns are always fun. the changes in tracks are one of the most important things in tracks that people don't really notice actively while listening to them.

i loved tom cosms video where he built a loop, and then a build up towards this loop. all the details that go in, it was impressive. and i guess, you would have quite some detailed knowledge for those changing-points as well.

other than that.. no clue right now

what synth do you use in the video?

thinking of purchasing...

I keep it all Live plugins, so if there's any noise making involved, it's operator or simpler (not sampler). But everything can be done with any freebee VST as well.

thanks for info!

does the tut focus creating melodies with synths, too?

Not really in the 'classic' sense. It does go through some cool things you can do with midi resampling and a couple arpeggiator tricks which could easily be turned into melodies. Maybe someone else who's watched it could chime in? Did you get any melody action out of it??

Tim,

good tutorials, but I would love to see one on arrangements. Taking the skills you have already shown and use them to build a track from the different parts (Drum loop & Synth & Bass). A basic overview of arrangements and fills would go a long way.

Yeah, arrangements are still very time consuming for me, it'd be a long video

Good ideas though, I'm sure I could integrate that, fills, and other goodies somehow!

rapidshare/torrent or didn't happen.
