I use ableton live 9, and it said it's not compatible, do you know if it's due to don't have the latest version of ableton live or I need something else to be able to install! However, if someone know an other dope midi generator (fro free of course) I'm all ears to hear your advices! Thanks for helping 🙏🏻
Thanks for such a good tutorial, Westend. Out of everything I watched, this inspired me to stick with it and get serious. Posting this to look back at this comment to see how far I'll have made it. Appreciate you!
This tutorial is not a normal tutorial, it is a real gem between all the trash that youtube has. This is the best tutorial I've ever seen abot composing and arranging a track, no lies. Congratulations for your work and thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. May god bless you in all your projects.
I watch tons of tutorials but I learned a lot of dope tricks in here like using the shirt hi hat and the king hi hat to make the loop more interesting. Good stuff *subbed*
With the clubs being shut, Im not huge into tech house anymore but was absolutely hooked on this tutorial. Nice one sir. Looking forward to more from you.
@@JamesHare22 first you have to clean up everything and keep just the layer/groups then you go to File > Save Liveset as Template and if you want to make it default (automatically loads when you open Ableton) you can go to the option right after Save Liveset as Default Set.
Hands down, one of the best (if not the best) tech house tutorials on UA-cam. Especially the arrangement of a whole track instead of just the drop and the tiny tips and tricks are just gold. Keep up the great work and thanks a lot!
I've learned so much in 15 mins ( still not watched it all) and cannot thank this guy enough.. Literally gives you a walkthrough of how to create an amazing track. Please keep up the good work! You are a diamond!
Please make more of these! This is one of the best tutorials I have seen on UA-cam! If you made a longer one. 3 or 4 hours and went slower and more in depth I’m sure the video would get tons of views. Keep up the great work man!
why do I keep coming back to this tutorial ?? because Westend is showing the love/knowledge and that my friend is keeping it real. You deserve all the success in the world my man! enjoyed listening to your Miami set! peace and love my man !
The sauce with the loops was top notch, now I know I’m missing this from my tracks , couldn’t quite nail the fast tech groove u , summit, cloone etc, all use and it’s basically just a break beat groove with a gate , and the sauce with the acid midi thing wow , don’t be surprised when I send u material in a few days
I just made my first ID because of this video, didn't take me an house and it was a process but definitely not something i expected to be able to make. Thanks for making this video. I'll catch you at one of your sets.
YT channels been doing these tuts for years and youre the first to put your cam feed in the most perfect place, first try. Thanks again for doing this!!
Cracking video brutha! Really interesting to see a Tech track constructed from scratch. I can honestly say it will change the way I build & drop tracks going forward. Some fantastic tips and I loved the no nonsense approach, no jargon. Top notch 👌
I’ll be honest wit ya. I didn’t learn a single thing in this video that I didn’t already know. INSTEAD. I watched an entire hour of a genuinely great producer making an actual banger of a track and watched all the way through. Gave me some inspiration. Lit a fire under my ass. Great content. I 🎉
YOOOO, thank you sooo much... I am a DJ and i just starting producing!!! jesus man sooo much material here... God bless you! my first track is fuego thanks to you
I am very new to Tech House and have just taken on a project to build a song of this genre from a sample bundle pack on Tech House and this course is absolutely amazing in teaching me what I need to know in just 1 hour (although I did pause and rewind a lot). And you really have opened my on eyes on how to be so flexible with the arrangement. Anyway, although I am a Studio One user, I have purchased your Ableton Live project just to say thank you, i at least owe you that.
Hey dude just wanted to say thanks for this. I’ve finished like 15 songs since watching this a few times. Huge help for me. So, thanks mate. Will buy a ticket to your show if u play in ATL
Such a good video, absolutely no waffle, to the point and full of knowledge bombs, thank you for sharing. Would love to see something on how you choose your more melodic sounds and hot you create/tweak them and then automate them to make them your own, the plucky sound in break break of Ya Telling me for instance.
This is sensational! I just got into tech house and always tried to do too much. This is a masterpiece! Love your tracks and this is really helpful! Appreciate it very much!
Thank you so much for this amazing tutorial! It was super helpful and I learned a lot about creating a Tech House track in Ableton. Keep up the great work!
you break down alot of info in this vid and honestly its so easy to follow along with, always struggled making tech house and generally give up with it, thanks for this!!
I really hope you post more videos. Watching videos of people who releasing songs from good labels is way better than videos of youtubers (i mean they're just making videos about everything about music production, but they don't release any song, isn't that weird?).
Dope Video! 3 Plugins downloaded during watching it :D And thanks for the tip with the automation lock! I'm a bit new in Ableton and that was a function I haven't found out before
I know I'm late to the party but this was dope! This my first song created in Ableton by following along and adding my own little touches. The track structure and the way the transitions are made from each section was super helpful here. Thanks West
I knew your songs last week by subsoul playlist you re f** good man 😊 now all my friends are listening to you in france🇫🇷 thank you for thoose good vibes ☺️
This was awesome thanks. Coudl you make a video about the ableton set you used and how it is set up, as well as one about that vox rack you used in this? cheers
Amazing! Thank You! I spent a few days doing this tutorial and I learned so much. I really appreciate the content. Something about your tutorials is so much better than other creators. I am not sure why, it just is!

I ain’t gonna lie. This video shouldn’t be free lol. I’ve learnt so much in this, especially compared to masterclasses that I’ve paid like £40+ for
Knowledge to the people!
@@itsthewestend really appreciate it man! It’s helped alot!

Glad you enjoyed it. Hopefully the techniques can be applied everywhere
Your tutorial is like a 12th grade math class.
Looked away for 5 seconds and you've produced 10 new things.
Very well done! Thanks a lot for that!
This video really was like a good movie. I didn't even notice an hour was over, it felt like 15 min
Just wow. I have a new appreciation for what goes into making a pro track. Thanks!
Really loved this one hour track. You should do a video on how you built your template! It's soooooo organized!
Just buy the project file for $10 and save the template.
