- Synced Ableton to EP-133 KOii In this video. I take users through all the steps required to make the EP-133 KO 2 talk to Ableton using Midi sync. In the process, I track out an entire beat to the Ableton DAW.
Purpose: Teenage Engineering fell short with export options for this unit. That said, once you reach 9 projects or fill the memory your ideas need somewhere to go. Ableton, or any DAW of your choice is an excellent option for export and expansion. Here is the workflow…

⚠NOTE : For this to work make sure your KO II is set to MIDI OUT. Press Shift + Erase. Type in 102 then press enter. OUT should flash across the screen. Also, make sure you select your Volt 1 as your in & out in audio preferences. Now your in the driver's seat.🚗
awesome! thank you! Got this saved to watch again once mine gets delivered.
Perfect!!!! We are both waiting with anxiety…😎💯
thanks bro for this great tutorial! So helpful and so cool to have the KOII in sync with ableton! 🤘
Great tutorial… thank you
Great helpful video. Thanks a lot! Only question: What kind of male jack fits in the combo Jack?
Great tutorial, but you should know that KO II sends midi sync over the USB you plugged in! The other midi connections are extraneous. I just tested it over USB. Seems to work great.
I may know but others may not. We can't assume everyone is approaching this at the same level. Hence the saying explain it to me like a 5 year old 😎. Lastly, you should know these devices don't always work the way they are supposed to. 💯
TE should be sponsoring you my dude 👌👌
Lol. Appreciate that my dude. Thank you.
For some reason I followed all the promoters but it’s still not working for me. The feed isn’t showing on the software. I’m using a presonus usb interface. Is there a way you can help me?
Bleeping out CNT is so funny
Lol. I actually said the wrong thing by accident. I didn’t want to confuse anyone. Sharp!!!! You caught that one.
Nice video. Wish they had a better way for exporting out tracks with stems 😂
That makes 2 off us bro. Hopefully soon. They say it is coming.
That's a lot of hassle, jeez :0, will they release usb export options in the future ?
I agree but your work and ideas are way more valuable than the time spent doing this. According to TE they are dropping an export and save update. When is the million dollar question. Thank you. Appreciate the comment buddy.💯
what does plugging the ko ii into the midi in into the back of the interface do?
Whats up man? You want to connect the 2 to avoid any sync issues. At the end you want the timing to be tight!!! Try it both ways and let me know what you get... Thanks
I get a load of USB ground noise when my EP133 is connected to the PC and audio routed to interface. Have you done anything to prevent that?
Is your PC power supply properly earthed? If not, it can create problems. Also try a different usb cable and port.
Yes. Don't turn the gain up loud, you will get air in the recording. Turn the gain down as low as you can and boost it in post. Let me know if that helps.
How to do in Logic Pro? 😰 i was all day searching and no infos about ! Sad!
Hey man. I have to be honest, I am still trying to figure it out too. I cant find anything out there on it. I have poked around on Logic as well, I cant figure it out. Crazy!!!!
@@bassroboticsthank you! 😢
@bassrobotics are you using the Midi out or the Sync out?
The midi out. Sync is used for something else.
for my audio interface i have a arturia minifuse 1....will i have to buy a volt for this to work
How's it going. No, you do not have to. What kind of MIDI ports does your interface have? 5 pin or TRS?
@@bassrobotics i have the same interface, theres no midi in/out. just usb hub and audio outs on the back.
@@iThinkWeGotIt Are you sure you have a volt 1? The volt 1 has the out on the front.
@@bassrobotics no, i have the Arturia minifuse. Guess ill have to try Midi to usb
@@iThinkWeGotIt If you don’t have a midi in/out connection, you can’t do it. You have to have midi in/out. No such thing as midi to usb, it’s one or the other buddy.
Can this work with NI machine as well?
It should. Concept is pretty much the same for all of them. Just make sure your settings in the machine are correct. Ableton settings stay once you put them in. Try it, let me know the result. I'll pin it. Thanks.
Any idea how to get this to work with Logic?
Yes, it should be the same concept. I will do a test run and post a vid. I'll let you know when it's posted. Thanks.
how do you get one of those projects back to your K.O.?
You mean a project you have taken off? If so, why would you want to put it back on? If you have it in a DAW, you’ve moved on to bigger and better things bro. Worst case scenario, if you insist, you can sample it back in track by track.
@@bassrobotics for a live performance. Or dj set. You'd want to put some beats back on it
@@stuntmanmadeit well if that’s the case I would just resample from Ableton and loop the performance or something. The workflow you’re talking about would be kind of hard on the KOII. I would probably break out the SP-404 for live DJ sets.
You can't... essentially, because this is not an export process. Teenage Engineering is supposedly working on the export functionality for a future firmware update.
@@jedcappelli3206 You are welcome to wait for that if you like. In the meantime This process doesnt hurt. Call it what you want….exportng, recording, tracking, solo etc.
MIDI via USB would be much easier :(
This is not "exporting" projects to Ableton. This is recording each track, one at a time. Teenage Engineering is however working on a firmware update (supposedly) that will allow for usb exporting of projects. A more accurate title for this video would be "Syncing the KO II to Ableton Live". In any event, why are you engaging the record function on the KO II? Couldn't you just press play and then solo the track?
Message received!!! Let me address each accordingly. I get your being technical. Yes, it could be described as a recording of each track. It could also be an export as the track is technically leaving the KOII and arriving into Abelton to be saved as a .WAV file. As far as the TE update i’ll believe that when I see it. In the meantime, I am sure some folks that don't know anything about what we are talking about can appreciate this video. As far as the title suggestion, I guess. Lastly, you could just press play and solo if you are able to start both Ableton and the EP-133 at the same time. Doing it the way you suggest I see drastic timing issues.
Way too cumbersome but since there's no other way...... TE needs that export function BAD!!!
why can't you do all the tracks at once
How would you get multiple sounds out onto multiple tracks with one output?
@@bassrobotics you can do that thru light pipe optical ins and outs with 1 cable...
@@clockspeed-nu4kj Ok. Be my guest buddy. This video was for those who know zero about the options you just mentioned. Quick fast to the point. Whatever works. The whole point is to get your project into a DAW whether you use, optical, t cable, USB, midi etc. There is no right or wrong way, long as it works.
@@clockspeed-nu4kj how?
