In this tutorial, Dubspot Instructor and Ableton Live Curriculum Designer Professor Nalepa explains and demonstrates a great technique to create real-time stuttering gated vocal effects where you can adjust the rate of the gate on the fly. You can use this live on vocals or other instruments, but it also works great in the studio. To accomplish this, you utilize all three types of Ableton's built-in tools: Instrument, Audio Effect and MIDI Effect.

  • This could be done with one effect. The AutoPan can be used as a tempo sync'ed gate.

  • @eawitt3 No. You can map the rate in autopan live as well. This method requires more preproduction that autopan. The only thing that this will give you is an inconsistant pattern. Like wanting to gate on the "&" of 1 and 3 and the "a" of 2 and 4. This is the only thing that autopan won't do vs this method.

  • It's the James Zabiela technique that he uses with the Korg Nanopad & the iPad? I think with some noise sound, am I right?

  • @samuraitheta I'm just saying you can essentially make instant changes with this method, wouldn't you need to program the autopan beforehand?

  • @eawitt3 I dont know what you mean-autopan works in real time too.

  • @samuraitheta That's why the title says "real-time techniques"

  • embrace the 32nd note!

  • Can you put similar tutorial for Logic?
