In your example at 23 seconds the main synth sounds different than your finished product in the tutorial. In the example it sounds like you may have used a filter or reversed the audio of the main synth to run into itself (or perhaps its delay). I was wondering if you could comment on how you did this, it sounds cool!

Well, the sounds in the track are not the same as in the tutorial. The instrument is different, the compressor settings are probably different, the key of the notes are higher and they are chords instead of single notes. However, it's all the same principle, it's all about fine tuning the settings (specifically the side chained compressor

i dont have the 'monitor' and 'audio from' thing

[AirbaseOfficial]

Check under the View-menu, turn on In/Out or what it's named. That's where you choose to show and hide those functions

In my Ableton I don't have that option above the volume bar.. Where you put external in and what not, where do I find it?

[AirbaseOfficial]

In live, under the View menu, you click In/Out, and they show up.

@webspaceinvader Is it saying "Sell It"? Or "Salad"? I can't tell

[webspaceinvader]

@SparkySubie well spotted tho sparky

[webspaceinvader]

@SparkySubie surely a demon!

[holiczsia]

So it's basically sidechaining the reverb of the original sound using the input signal of it. Simple but it sounds awesome!

Anyone else notice the creepy whisper like sound at 1:12?

[DJDriffT]

Hi Jezper!! If you can help! Just wondering as you've Used this on a single track for the part you done and does this mean I need more like this as If I want to make other parts on different channels does his mean you would use Others to Be routed For Individual tracks what you would use to make them also Pumping !!! I could I end up using alot of Channels yea or do you bounce parts into Audio after or leave them as you have created your Track?? and Just have Lot's!!
