Ableton Live

[antiemo666777]

i have tried to use ableton its super confusing but at least i know its a good program

[DarkShroom]

@antiemo666777 if u think ableton is "super confusing" don't even bother trying anything else, it's all you need really anyway as a musician and not a computer technician, stick with it

[martinlovegoodie2]

@antiemo666777 its really easy when u ceep at it. it gets so easy.

[gregorxd6]

@DphL0 i dont even catch what he says lol

[TheNamesMillen1]

hi im god 

[benlinden9]

what's the controller at 1:47 ? it looks like some kind of super charged apc40

[lucadepu]

the creators of "life"

[LouigiVerona]

it's a functional piece of software, but pity it is proprietary.

[digglesMcgee]

Proprietary? How so?  Do you mean that it's commercial software and not open source?

[LouigiVerona]

It is not free software - software that gives users certain freedoms. It has nothing to do with whether it is commercial or not. Free software can be commercial and in fact I am paying a subscription to a lot of free software packages, to fund their further development.

[slytown]

That looks like a sweet place to work.

[DEPROGRAMED]

Everyone puts up these tutorials but know one ever shows you how to finish the projects. Like turning them into mp3s or WAV files

[sacredgeometry]

? ummm what you just go to file/export audio/video......if you are used to saving in software it should really be that difficult

[facethemirrorxx]

audacity! lame encoder! combine open with closed source software!

[claim34]

file/export

[NovemberRain1107]

In Ableton you go to File, Export Audio/Video, Render Track from Master (make sure you have it at the beginning and it's on arrangement mode), Normalize: On, File Type: Wave, and leave the rest the same. Once it's rendered send it through an mp3 converter (I use Switch Sound File converter it's free) there you go!

[ChannelAlfanz]

@NovemberRain1107

..or use iTunes..

[MirrorLiving1]

@NovemberRain1107 Thanks for the help.

[94Karim94]

Not bad at all!!

Check my new track! "Get get down" :p

I did it with Ableton live and some VSTI

[chompy410]

I downloaded the crack

[jsunrocks45]

can you send me a link?

[ToxicFlameZ]

Live is awesome!

Especially with a Line 6 Toneport UX2, which happens to come with live.

[Penguinduck64]

LOL! Coulda sworn the first thing he said was "Hi, I'm god, one of the founders of Ableton, the makers of life..."

[Billyb1oodaxe]

so funny you wrote this comment

your totally right ha haaaa !!

[dpetrosd]

hahahaha...dam you nailed it!!!

[dudewhatthehellman]

haahahhahhaahha aceee

[losreyescatolicos]

[FutureMotion2020]

@Penguinduck64 HAHAHA that was great! Should cut it up and make a beat for it. "We bow to worship our god, the makes of life. We are not worthy..."

[TheMoccafaux]

@Penguinduck64

gerhard=god ?

rofl

[Zkrudriverz]

@Penguinduck64 HAHAHA!!!! XDXDXD OMG! truee:D made my day XD

[shreyasns2003]

@Penguinduck64 hey..he is herhard..da ceo for ableton nd makers of "live"

[greentoaster]

Yes. Live has made it pure fun. Nowadays I'd rather jam on live than play videogames.

[hilato]

you know I use to play a lot with video games and did some production with logic, but I cannot handle how much fun I get playing with live and making crazy sounds on it.

[nexusdb]

2:58

Was that Jacques Clouseau?

[DockT]

Does anyone know the song that starts at 1:38?

[Neuros]

Orbital - Joker

opening song for Hackers movie :D

[pezmanpockyfan]

it's actually halcyon (and on and on) by orbital. big mid-90's club hit.

[ud2hb4]

Ableton Live is great and i tried a lot of software like samplitude, cubase (3.7) , logic and on...

You can even export individual channels with all settings, fx, midi-data by simply drag a channel and drop it in the file browser.

I love it.

[DarkShroom]

yeah if you've noticed live also breeds fanatics

[daprofessor06]

Yea STS9!!

[veramuzik]

Hey who can give a hand here ..... im really confused..... I love ABLETON but its supposed that LOGIC its the shit right now,, and that its the leader on the game .. please if some one can REALLY tell me which one I should buy .... ABLETON LIVE or LOGIC PRO .....I really appreciate some help

[jockincognito]

I use both, it really depends on what you are using it for. Logic is a more complete studio package much better for recording (IMHO) multitracks and processing audio. It has a very mature range of included synths. Live on the other hand is brilliant as an instrument for jamming and improvisation. It is much favoured in DJ'ing circles and is loads of fun.

[QuantumAnomaly]

I've been looking at both myself recently. I gather Logic is great for multitrack recording and mixing and I would choose it over Pro Tools any day. I primarily compose electronic music so I want a program that I can throw samples into quickly and loop/chop/pitch/warp them however I please. Ableton Live is best for that sort of creative experimentation. BOTH programs can be ReWired to Reason, utilize 3rd-party instruments/plugins and come with their own native soft synths.

[DarkShroom]

well you can try live as a demo.

The program does have limitations but with the right plugins it is very versatile and will probabally keep you going for quite some time before you learn what the limitations mean (lack of decent envelope filters and advanced midi editing like groove quantization imo), how to get round them and also don't forget there are many unique features like audio warping and the awsome UI that allows you to trigger loops and scenes.

NOT JUST A DJ TOOL!

[ICameAsARat94]

I think ableton has given me the best Money to Enjoyment ratio I have ever have.

Buy it.

[djbassmint]

can someone please tell me is this program easy to make remixes. Im use to Reason where you have to chop it up in peices to get the song in. with abelton can you just trow a wav file in and play a bassline/ drum beat over it??

[kindkayne]

you should use reason and ableton together. drop your raw audio in and chop it up and then use reason to add your own beats and synthlines without having to switch programs. rewire lets you integrate reason into ableton for recording.

[QuantumAnomaly]

Yes. I am moving from a Reason-only setup like you described to a Live+Reason setup. ReCycle loops are ideal for SOME situations, but you don't want to have to make a rex file for every single loop in your song. In Live you can chop your samples wherever you like on-the-fly.

[spankazoid]

I would sacrafice my own mother before giving up my copy of Ableton.

[DeeJayTan]

lmao!

ur 2 funny man

[rofrmusic]

1:50- 1:53. whats that songs name?

[432east]

i just got it what programs could u compare it to

[tactical16]

hey how do u convert life tracks dat u created into mp3

[CharlieNorth]

Ableton have done an amazing job. My only hope is that they keep up this really high level of stable and easy to use software.

Changed my whole attitude to music software.

Great stuff guys.

Peace.

Charlie

[SchweinchenHorst]

The Guys of Ableton have done real good work. Everything works stable! Every Sound and FX Plugin! I tryed everything: Cubase SX 3 - dont work with my 4 Core intel. Sonar crashes all the Time. FL8 is a Toy and Orion 7.5 too. But Live 7 is the greatest shit ever! Thank u guys. GO ON!

[usamericanz]

Gerhardt = "Dieter" from "Sprockets" on SNL....

[SULLYEEE475]

[stickybenson]

It is a remix of the song by Orbital called: Halcyon + On + On

or sometimes called Halcyon and On and On

you can find the original on the mortal kombat original motion picture soundtrack, or the live version on iTunes

[stickybenson]

i was slightly incorrect...

en . wikipedia . org/ wiki/ Halcyon_(Orbital_song)

[mnjibber]

[yozeroz]

Check Monolake, I'd say most of the tracks on here are going to be by them.

[godzuki444]

Hahahahah Anyway Live s the shit.

[godzuki444]

Hahahahah Anyway Live s the shit.

[spacemanvector32]

[BaronvonCase]

Am I the only one who heard, "Hi I'm god, one of the founders of Ableton, the makers of life"?

[taikang]

He says: my name is "Gerhard" - it's a German name. Let me guess - you are American ;-)

[brownhorse17]

[royalspeciment]

You can hear the name Gerhard very clearly!

[alfons00p]

[aheem]

what's the name of the track that starts at 2:00?

it sounds so familiar but i really can't remember...

[c010mbeing]

Hi, live needs to have a keyboard shortcut nudge feature like logics' or cubases', and have the copying of automation to be different. Please leave me a comment or message me about this. Ableton is the shit still, i agree with ImperialPimp.

[ImperialPimp]

Live is the shit.
