Setting Up Your Midi Controller in Ableton Live
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 тра 2017
- The most essential hardware element to an Ableton Live setup is a midi controller. I will be uploading a video every day this week with a new kind of controller so you can make an informed decision on which type of midi controller you'd like to get. Subscribe and click the bell to get notified when the new videos come out.
Becoming skilled at using your midi controller is a great way to increase your production speed and your live performances. Midi controllers offer shortcuts to commonly used controls and intuitive designs that allow instant access editing, effectively blurring the lines between hardware and software. Also adding a tactile and hands on element to music creation offers the musician a great way to get eyes off the screen and focus more on the inspiration inside.

You were a HUGE help. I searched for over an hour to learn how to make my keyboard work with Ableton. Thank you.
You weren't alone. :)
@child of YAHAWAH go into the "sounds" menu to the left and then choose from "piano and keys"
yeah same here ... your tuto rox dude !
Me too. This was so helpful and clear, thank you.
P.S. I attempted to type this comment on my midi keyboard just now...guess I just really want to use it for everything now that it works!
same
This was very helpful. Explaining what each of the buttons in Live did, made it more clearer as to how Midi works in Live.
After a week of trying to figure out how to get my controller to play the sounds, your vid showed what was wrong. I look forward to watching more of your vids. Thanks!!!
Relatable content
One of the best videos ever! You have a way of explaining things that make sense! Thank you, made life a bit easier for me today!
Thank you so much. I've just started as a hobby and it's so much easier when explained right from the beginning for people starting from scratch.
I'm not gonna lie, I've had a specific issue with the startup, and it was addressed in your video after a few hours of having that one problem. Resetting/unplugging and recognizing my device actually solved the issue and track/remote set correctly of not correctly having the midi input/output/source. Thank you so much! I was about to throw things against the proverbial wall. It is one of those nice little revelations that has alleviated much stress. I recommend this video for those setting up their midi controller with Abelton Live.
If you can't get sound from your Alesis Vortex 2, watch this video ! An issue for many who don't know anything about Midi it seems. It works now ! Thanks so much for the video.
Amazing content! I've been using Ableton live for almost 8 years and these little details are full of things I am still learning to streamline my workload even more. I've never taken full advantage of midi controllers despite having a few because there's not a lot of clear videos out there on how to map and set them up.
THANK YOU. THANK YOU. THANK YOU. Scoured the web for over an hour trying to find a solution for the lack of sound. I was erroneously promised out the box plug and play LOL You have preserved this newbie’s sanity!
I just spent 30 minutes looking for resources. This was by far the most helpful! Thank you!
Great vid, thought I knew about most of this stuff at first, but I decided to continue watching and learned a lot! Very informative and all inclusive, I appreciate you.
watched a lot of videos but THIS was the one that helped me. great job.
This video tutorial was a great help to me - explained things very clearly. I'm new to Ableton Live and midi controllers etc. Can't wait to get stuck in now.
I love you man please don't stop making videos for this channel. You have a gift for teaching. 🙌
Top Tip learned from this tutorial! For a midi controller you need to enable REMOTE in your Ableton Midi Preferences before you can MAP midi
Thank you! Straight to the point and answered my question "Why can't I assign my micro knobs" - "Remote needs to be turned on".
I hadn’t used any midi controllers in Ableton since 08 and completely forgot everything. Thank you for this video!
great stuff, thanks ! one of the few that actually explains in simple language with examples !
This is the most useful video on Ableton and Launchkey I've seen. Thanks.
A falta de 2 días para que éste video cumpla 4 años me acaba de ser de una ayuda enorme, muchas gracias!
Great tutorial! I was just wondering if you have that other tutorial about setting up different MIDI controllers styles that you've talked about in the end of this video... Would help me a lot!
Easily some of the best tutorials on YT. Thorough and incredibly well explained :o)
Huge help with my KL MKll in 2023. Got the thing working by changin the "...DAW" and "...MIDI" inputs and outputs. Still don't understand it, but it works correctly. Gonna check out your in depth vid.
This really helped me out , thank you for making it.
HOLY SHIT THANK YOU DUDE !!! just from watching the first 5 min i was able to figure out why the hell i could not get sound while using the software and it was becoming very annoying. I got the launchkey 25 and am in love ! happy holidays and happy new year !! Thanks again
I know this vid is a few years dated, but great content dude! Thanks for covering the functions of those midi settings. Super helpful, even in 2023!
Thank you so much, no one else could help but you, thanks a lot!
Seeds to Stage - THANK YOU SO MUCH. I was having trouble connecting my controller which I had just bought, I was getting so frustrated that I was going to return it and get a refund but the " preference, tick remote box" worked. And it's AMAZING! I am creating music and maybe I owe it all to you. I owe you a drink.
Wow So much information! in just a few minutes,thanks for share.

Great video. I think i have the ultimate question. I just bought an Akai APC mini to cue music in OBS for shows. I want to assign for example 5 triggers (music tracks) to the same volume slider but cannot seem to figure this out. Thanking you in advance for any suggestions. Keep up the great work.
Thanks for Identifying my problem, my reface CS doesn't have a midi script... but you said that didn't matter? Then how do I connect it?
Thanks so much
THANK YOU!
Thank you!!!
Bless thanks for help
Great video. Got an inscrutable problem using Live with Fishman TriplePlay Midi Guitar system. TriplePlay's controller is inadvertently also controlling my Live session's master volume. When I turn controller knob, Live's master volume moves around. Tried to find and delete any external midi control with no luck. I clicked "midi" in Live, selected the master volume indicator, pressed delete, but no effect. Still got a dancing master volume.
Thanks a million ! Do you know how to edit the Controller Scripts? I got a Beatstep and I would like to change some nobs functions !
Thanks
Davey
