I have tried to make the same kind of interesting audio loop thingy as in Tel aviv artist Video, but how does he do it?

Cant figure it out.

Please help me out!

I am quite new Live user and I have almost done everything with midi but I cant understand how to work with audio sample loops.

Please explain it as simple as possible.

Where do I start and how?

Thanks!

So stupid of you to post that! do you feel good?

to be honest I didn't see so many surprising tricks in that video. Just some cut nad paste on the timeline, isn't it? Nothing that you wouldn't be able to do with "magix music maker".

I thankfully take the rebuke. I somehow suspected that this is the wrong board for piano questions.

No, I feel like a damn newbie and someone please has to program my fingers or should I end up practicing hours a day for years?

There are a few different places in the vid you could be talking about. Are you talking about the loop where he cuts things up in arrangement view and reassembles them? Or the one where they already have a long prerecorded drum thing as a clip and just move the loop markers around to randomize it a bit?

tempus3r!

I need to know how to cut thing up in a easy way, then how to reassemble them.

And then how to randomize the loop in a randomize way.


I cant make a short loop in arrange window, I want it to stutter.

Thanks man!

In the video he mentions the shortcuts used to split and consolidate. It's a pretty straight forward process. You might want to check out Live 7 and slicing, Then you can sort of auto slice it up and arrange it via midi instead. Then all kinds of midi stutter and randomize effects can just be added in the chain.

Another suggestion is for you to search the Tips and Tricks forum. There, people have posted sample ableton files with complex setups that sort of "auto glitch" loops. You can try them and reverse engineer how they did it and make your own spin.
