    Hi Mr.Bill!
    To begin with, thank you, thank you, thank you for all the amazing tutorials. I couldn't been more grateful!
    Could you maybe show us how to make like big ethereal pad sounds that for example Jon Hopkins uses in a lot of his music?
    I've been struggling with it for a while and can't really nail it, it always feels so flat and kind of dead. Not interesting enough.

    Real Noob question here. I'm pretty much new to producing on Ableton. I use to be a LPX user. I couldn't get over the fact of how quickly and smoothly you were going through Ableton. Any guides or sites you can recommend to learning useful shortcuts for Ableton?

    I have been working on my side chain compression, I don't know if you have a video on it or not, you do mention it here. Wouldn't you want the side chain compressor working off of the different frequency's from the kick and snare to have it punch through better? If it works just as well thats awesome! I would just assume you want the high end like the transient of the kick to trigger the side chain and the lower end of the snare to trigger it as well and I don't know if you can accomplish that with one same pasted in the same spot.

    So if I use a drum kit, being that all of my drums are midi notes, how would I achieve this since midi tracks don't use faders? is there a way to put the whole thing together on a midi channel and then extract all of the drums to different audio tracks? I feel like this is a feature ableton would have.

    my only question Mr bill is this. I mean you are good at what you do, but you don't address the possibility of phase issues occuring. How do we deal with phase issues? I am pretty good at dealing with them now, but I do a lot of careful eqing and really have to dial in on the samples. Your so good you can do this very quick with no problems. By the way, I love what you do with the transients. I was doing this yesterday out of lazyness oppose to layering transients, and I was like, am I doing it wrong.... now I am like, shit someone confirmed I am not crazy
