@ 1:03, that almost..skipping effect. is it on ableton and/or how triggered by the nanokontrol? you are really helping me feel good about buying this exact set

REALLY awesome my friend. Let me ask you, as I plan on buying the launchpad, as well as the kontrol after watching videos like yours, but how do you feel about that keyboard size? ever want one thats 41/49 keys when you are messing around with it or are you ok with it?

[officialExcerpt]

@dannnywey yeah its a good setup, everything is midi controlled. Everything is set up in ableton already. My nanoKontrol is midi mapped to some type of effect on that track. Different parts of the nanoKontrol, different channels and effects. Pretty easy to do once you figure out some cool effects. The keyboard is fine for me, i've never really needed anything else. I'm more of a producer than a performer. Can't play piano to save my life unfortunately...

[dannnywey]

@officialExcerpt i am the same way haha, but i can sit in-front of a piano and within 20 minutes have an ok melody going... i have been self learning ableton for some weeks now and pretty much think ill have your exact set up soon. i appreciate the quick response my friend.

any tips in general? :p actually also curious about your samples or sounds...do you use packs....what ones, how did you get/make your sounds.

i have downloaded 23 gb's of audio to get going with ableton.

@dannnywey For drums I use SM101 kicks and vengeance sample packs. Synths I use a mix of software synths like Sylenth1 (for leads and chords) and Massive (for basslines). Then i'll mess around with effects on them. Usually delay and reverb then i'll reverse some stuff and chop up and copy paste small sections. Just experiment and don't worry about the small stuff. As long as it's in key and goes with the beat.. Its your music, after all.

Dude this is great nice job! & I have a question what is that attachment called under the launchpad?

[officialExcerpt]

@rapfreak17 Thanks. Under the launchpad is the Korg NanoKontrol. It has some faders and toggle switches that you can use for separate tracks.

Novation Launchpad + Korg nanoKONTROL or nanoKONTROL2 is much cheaper than Akai APK40. Why pay more when you can have approximately the same thing for much less?

[NeliZell]

So awesome man....i listen to this everyday, everytime. x)

[natkutje182]

this sounds great man, keep it up!

I just ordered a Launchpad + Nano 2.

Wish me luck

[masteircheef]

im thinking of doing a setup with just the launchpad and nanokontrol :)

[Djmiranda069]

good stuff dud!! :p

Hey man nice work I really enjoyed the vibe. Reminds me somewhat of Ulrich Schnauss. If I had one constructive criticism I would say possibly lower the threshold on your compressor to increase the sidechain effect, I think this might give your tunes more of a nice pumping flow. Also play with the release as I think this is set a couple of ms too high. Just my opinion but all in all great work!

[LATRONNIK]

fuck that was epic.
