Ableton Live 8, Novation Launchpad, Akai LPD 8 Jam

Just a quick tune I knocked up using my Launchpad and Akai controllers. More videos coming soon so watch this space. Might do a Electro/House jam next. Bless

what kinda sample pack did you use for this jam?

since the vocals are awesome!

the beat is way too punchy for this kinda liquid dnb, decrease the volume a bit, it makes the mix way much clearer!

besides, what is this awesome bell-like stab that always hits on the first of each bar?

@GrouEEf Hi, if i remember correctly the kicks, snares & hi hats were off one of the Vengence House packs which i programmed in to DrumRacks, the bell stab sound was coming from KORE 2 thru a filter lfo and some random breaks i had which i removed the kicks and snares and hi passedf just to add that rollin percussion vibe :)

hey dope video Baron. I just do production with ableton, but for years wanted to start doing live shows/mashups. great inspiration. since i cant afford a monome 40h ill cop the launchpad. so what is it that u like about logic more than live? i flip flop b/w the two but really focused in completing the whole mix b4 mastering now in live. u?

@ShaulMusic Ableton & Logic are 2 seperate beasts. I Luv the fact that you can jam and get down ideas so quickly in Ableton. If i make any ideas and want to take them further then i import my stems into Logic. As much as i luv Ableton the sound engine is not as solid as Logics. Ive heard all the stuff about turn warping off, its how you master & blah blah blah but an identical kick imported into Logic or Cubase (and i hate Cubase) has clearer transient detail than in Live.

@GrouEEf The vocals are from Barrington Levy - Here I Come

How did you get some much room for the slots to add other synths/samples? I can only fit about 8. You seem to have allot more. I wish I could allot more other sounds but I don't how. Thanks

Pardon my french but HOLY SHIT. I love it man. I couldn't help but jam out to this song, I really like it man. I'm on the fence about getting a Launchpad, and I think you just got it sold haha.

@pflynnification thanks, i used Sugarbytes Effectrix on the master output channel to get that turntable slow down effect :)

[ItBeReece]

if i have the akai lpd 8, will i be able to record my beats in ableton? and would i be able to use it in FL studio?

[GrouEEf]
