thank you so much for this video, it really helps me, and also i really appreciate to you the fact that your explanation is in english, i really admire you as a musician as a person 🥰💗🖤
This video was a great help to me, thanks a lot! As a beginner I learned a lot. Awaiting for the next video like this. When it will arrive? Can't wait for that!
@@KnownAsTheInconspicuous As you promised in the first one, how to make track in record mode, how to do the full autmation, etc. I'm interested for also how to find the best instruments for a song you would like to replicat. A would see eve nan hour long video, about a case study. You doing this great and explaining very well! Keep it going! I'm with you.
Nice nice considering getting my own midi soon so need to see what am getting into. Tho have a large idea on piano for 4 years trying to opt into edm style
Thanks for this but I have a question. When you are making all your loops and the pads turn green, is there any way to turn specific loops off using the mini lab?
Hi, you're welcome and thanks for your question. There is a way to do that like you can see in one of my loop covers (e.g. ua-cam.com/video/iBVnxZDHm20/v-deo.html ) It's done with midi mapping. I've noted your questions and will try to record a tutorial video this weekend. Have a nice day! 💜
Hi I'm so sorry but can you explain your question with a few more details. Would help me a lot to understand. Otherwise you can contact me via email or Instagram if you are interested in a video call lesson Thanks 💜
Thanks a lot, it really means something to me! :) Already working on the next tutorial regarding remote controlling Ableton by using just the keyboard 👀
If I wanted to use a Nord electro keyboard organ instead of minilab, could I use Ableton the same way for recording? Your video was so informative and easy to digest, thank you
Hi Andrea, first of all: thanks a lot, I really appreciate your kind words. :) It should work out, I guess. I use an electric piano in combination with Ableton as well. You only need a MIDI signal, either through USB or via a MIDI Out on your keyboard. But I don't know if there is an option to active a loop since your keyboard probably doesn't have built in drum pads that are programmed to work that way with the Ableton DAW...
A USB cable will work but you'll need two of them: one to connect the MiniLab to your computer and another one zo connect the USB audio interface to your computer. Hope this helps dude! :)
Very informative video! Congrats. I’m struggling with Ableton and Arturia and this is one of the best tutorials so far that I watched. I have one basic question: what’s the difference in doing as you did and using the Looper? I was trying to use the latter with no success.
Thank you so much, it really means something to me! I'm not quite sure what your problem is right now, so sorry. Maybe you can write me an email or a DM on Instagram with more detailed information about your issue. For example it would help to understand what you mean by using the term "looper" since the Ableton software works like a loop station. Looking forward to your message. :)
@@KazuyaST Well, you have to press shift and turn the black know simultaneously. Look on your monitor . If you've selected the track of your choice, press the black knob once and the track is armed! :)
@@korhunov It's a little bit more complex with the MiniLab 2. You have to assign one of the eight pads (with its midi note) to the arm button in Ableton. A video tutorial is planned, right now the needed time is missing to record it...
Hey I have ableton 12 and when I record lets say a hat loop and I press the pad for ending the loop it ends after 1 bar I have no idea why. Do you have any idea what it could be? :D
Unfortunately, from the 6th minute there is a big jump because something is missing along the way. I guess we still need to arm these pads. For me, when I press pad 1/9 (1 Analog Lab), the piano key still activates instead of recording.
Hi dude, I get what you mean. Maybe you've watched one of my loop covers and in those I arm the tracks only by using the MiniLab. But I thought it would be too much to put everything in this video, so I'll explain the arm functionalities with the keyboard in another video soon. Anyway, you can already live loop tho, since you are able to arm the track with your computer mouse as shown in the video. If the track is armed the matching pad will be activated as well. Just press it after arming with your mouse! :) In your case it means that you have to arm the second track manually with the mouse. Let me know if it works, and stay tuned for the next tutorial video. 🫣
@@JoelLinus because it works differently. The MiniLab 3 is quite smarter and can detect Ableton on its own and if not there is the workaround I mentioned :)
