[whinchacha]

This tutorial's what is related with Dorian?

[bulletinthewind]

HAHA!!! Dorian Concept is a fookin' mad cunt!!! Go crazy fingers!!!

[snalepa]

@pflynnification About to relaunch the series and start churning out some new videos. I will make sure we cover sound design. I have a lot of different laser samples on my hard drive that I've acquired over the years. There's a couple of links on my website with links to archives of free wav sounds. However, we can get our lasers on. I will start thinking about that

[DVNCImusic]

Thank you! 

[snalepa]

@DVNCImusic You're welcome!

[HoboSex]

So many great point are made in this video. Some of my best tracks were made entirely on an EMX1.

Simplicity is the heart of genius.

[djpaulhannon]

I have no analog triangle wav. Why is there always shit missing? I've Live 8 (paid) and theres always something missing when i follow a tutorial!!!!

[ahlstrominfo]

@djpaulhannon Hi. Just realized this myself.

To get the wave you just have to download the "Live 7 Legacy pack" from ableton dot com.

[Allor3Xx]

or well drag a simper here just to make it simple, ahha a natral pun!

[890gg90]

waveforms->components is not there how do i get it

[chavochamsine]

Just for an extra tip about getting rid of the snap at the first of the Sample sound, if you intend to put a compressor in the same channel of the Sample sound and side chain it to a Drum-Kick from a Drum Rack channel it would also terminate the Snap as the compressor would take the first bit of the Sample sound and change it to the Drum-Kick instead.. but eventually getting rid of it is also the best option.

Itd be awesome if u checked out my dub! im a new producer I use ableton and dubspot has helped me a ton!!

[jwowwcarlisle]

[172Break]

@C4pitalise You only get Operator if you upgrade to Suite 8 (or you buy Operator on its own).

[96juliusb]

@C4pitalise

short and simple no

[C4pitalise]

@96juliusb Fuck... Thanks anyway

[withaspoon94]

amazing, simple but amazing

[famifam]

YO that 8-bit song at the end was EPIC

What's it called/where could i download it?

Anybody know?

[snalepa]

@famifam The track used at the end of this video is "Wonton Garden" from Matt Shadetek's Dutty House EP, out now on Dutty Artz.

[Senj1n]

this is some serious stuff.. keep it up dubspot!

[psychobob23]

you can do the same easier with analog or operator...

[jnermon]

@psychobob23 video??

[FYICREW]

says performance setup. it’s more recording and sound design.

[biggtimemusic]

@FYICREW yeah I was expecting effects racks, clip launch tricks and that sort of thing but it's good info nonetheless

[FYICREW]

Will you PLEASE make a tutorial on Live performance producer DJing with Ableton? Using it’s full potential…your own loops and midi sequencing/playing, understanding how to develop a workflow that suits your DJ style? you get what I’m saying. PLEASE DOOO IIEEEET

[biggtimemusic]

@FYICREW Are you talking about going from the studio to live with your own beats? I'm building a tutorial on that topic right now - check out the Tom Cosm studio to live set tutorial, his videos were the basis for my studio to live techniques

[LzI]

@FYICREW Learn to use dummy-clips :) And there are LOTS of videos showing what you are asking about.

[DanielGrozier]

good shit

[ramHOA]

great tutorials! i always watch new episodes immediately. keep it alive!

greetings from germany

[BuglerMusic]

Seriously awesome stuff Nalepa. Keep em comming. The section on Thirds really helped me man. I would love some tutorials on Glitch Mob Style Synths, or some song construction similar to Artists Like Pretty Lights.

[snalepa]

@BuglerMusic Thanks. When Boreta was a guest in my class someone asked him about that, and he said they like to layer synths. If you make an Instrument Rack and have several different synths loaded up into different chains, you can create a bigger than life sound. Maybe one is a fat sinewave bass synth, another a nasty mid range growler, etc. Fill out the frequency range with the different synths. Then one melody plays all of them at once. Maybe add a compressor after all of them and voila.

[snalepa]

@BuglerMusic Glitch Mob synths are heavily layered beasts. Some distortion, some sidechained. If you layer several different synths together all playing the same chord or progression, you can get a big full sound.

[svenerrrgy]

won"t i be better to set the drywet of the delay effct to 100

[OMGlvl86turtlepilot]

i seriously feed off yer videos like a hungry homeless gypsy boy orphan

[snalepa]

@OMGlvl86turtlepilot ha thanks

[TheeAldeen]

@OMGlvl86turtlepilot lolololz across the board

[biggtimemusic]

It's like you guys always happen to make videos about topics that I'm currently undertaking.. i love dubspot

[Tsw33d]

"Develop your meat grinder, then crank out the jams"

---mmmm meat jam + toast = good music.

[chuckles1252]

i would be drowning in a sea of confusion if not for you guys. thank you

[rawstarmusic]

Thanks for the inspiration. I use Logic so I can only use your Ableton videos as general ideas but it's possible to convert it. Make more on Logic also.

[snalepa]

@rawstarmusic We definitely have tutorials on Logic, Dubspot's Matt Shadetek is a master at Logic and a talented producer. Dig around on the Dubspot blog or youtube channel.

[TheKoKoRobin]
