    Ok wowzers, from all the videos I've seen in your channel I found this one particurlarly useful. I'd love a whole "you suck at playing live" mini-series, or at least a second video on how to prepare a set of different songs in the same session, for example. Thanks, keep it up!

    Dope tut as always! Just one thing to min. 1:48: You could also map the volume control to one of your faders and then hit the MIDI button on the top right an click the arrow on the top left corner. There you can set the max. amount of your specific fader for instance to -6db. Then you could turn the fader on your MIDI controller all the way up and it won't pass that line. Just to let you know!

    I am an old Gen Xer that cut my teeth in analogue vinyl many moons ago. After painfully reviewing young millennial UA-cam producer channels I found you. Thank Wowsers that satire is strong in your creative arsenal. Up there with your musical talents. Thanks for skipping the frills and getting to the point. I (now proudly) suck at producing.

    Hi Underbelly, for the volume faders using sends suck imo. In the midi mapping list in Ableton you can change the max from +6dB to 0dB.

    You can edit min / max values for midi controller mappings, so you can have the sliders max out at 0 dB instead of +6 dB.

  • @Strawbiebasil

    You actually map the faders to the volume of your tracks and set the max to nominal instead of +6 , however this does look like a super sweet config for live looping.

  • @colinag6
    @colinag6 6 років тому +1

    Hey just so you know instead of using the sends to control the volumes you can just map your faders to the regular faders and in the midi mapping you can set your faders to only go from negative infinity to 0db or whatever you want
