The single most best thing I've ever been to. So valuable. I've since come home and had more ideas and inspiration than I even know what to do with them lol I went to Music Tech college and studied for 2 years full time yet got more out of that 3 day weekend than 2 years of full time education combined. Incredible. My best advice I could give to anyone here now who may be stuck in a Loop is that you should try and get yourself to one of these if you can. That way you'll surely get out of it. Unbelievable!
Caught the first video of your new venture yesterday and it brought me here. Good luck with it and also in becoming a father. You're in for some fun times.
YES!! I'm so happy he choose 10cc and specifically pointed out the choral texture they created. Also, shout out to King Britt in the crowd; 2 of my favorite sound designers in the same room!
❤ I am full of admiration for Mr. Henke's command of English, so I would not dream of questioning his oversight as a linguistc misunderstanding, morover, I think it has come about because the landscape he inhabits is computer driven with music as his export. As such, he is a proper adult. Although the title is about success and failure, he opens with defining 'players' but he skips over the other definition and for me, more importantly the childish view of play / spielen, which is the direction from which I make musical compositions. After he describes the struggle in making his lazer show, which one might assume was just labour, his humour tells us what he won't say is that it is also fun twiddling knobs and watching the feedback loop progress or regress. I also love the philosophy of less is more.
A true genius takes complicated problems, and turns them into simple solutions. At least that's how I see it. Ableton was and is one of those simple solutions.
kind of weird the reference, but the reality is now with a modern keyboard you can get a long string choir sound easy. lots of slower ambient ATB songs use long string sounds I really enjoy

"Failures point to the future. Achievements point to the past"
Bars! 🔥🤯, that's a quote for the books
True man.
I can listen to Robert talk all day! Clear, concise and intelligent about all aspects of electronic music.
Same
This man is legit genius
Cant say this enough
His optimism and way of looking at things is refreshing and inspiring!
"...the failure[s] are pointing to the future, whilst achievement[s] are pointing to the past..." LOVE THIS!

Spotted myself in the crowd at 23:18. SO glad they recorded these...I needed to see this again.
Thank you Robert for sharing your deeper philosophy on the creative process. Bonus points for the 10cc reference :)
This may be one of my favorite David Cross characters...
YES
Best youtube comment EVER!
rofl... literally...

Wow, this is what it looks like when somebody with Asperger’s discovers the comments section

one of, if not the best talk. Musicians not only talking about making music but listening to music. listen.
great speaker, excellent breakdown of the craft. I love the way Robert talks and makes things so plain. keep up the great work and thank you.
this is great! especially the final point about failures and achievements
This speak put so many right words on a lot of issues that I deal with. #Inspiration
エイブルトン大学の素晴らしい講義、後半、感動して少し拍手が起こるシーンがすごく好き。かすかな希望の匂いが会場を包み込みます。
Always so refreshing to listen to this man.
Better than I thought it was going to be
My mind can't be calm after the story of 10CC. That's some crazy stuff!
great speech. and thank you for the best live performance software too.
Robert Henke and Gerhard Behles write Ableton software. Respect.
Thank you Robert.
Brilliant speech!
Thank you Robert
Really, really great talk!!
Always inspiring!
beautiful
I love this guy
Wow 8 years ago ! Where was I 😂
Thank you.
the Steve Jobs of the electronic music
lol i wouldnt cheapen the name Robert Henke by comparing him to jobs
Don't fucking do Mr Hanky like that
Exactly ❤

I love it!
Thanks
great stuff !!
Music is a word
Erin Barra at 23:16 ?
Robert seems to have stage fright. He looks nervous. But he killed it in this one, he got his point across very well.
cool talk
"This video is not available"... Please fix I'd really like to watch this
The video should be working fine, as it got viewed a few times already.
+Ableton Hey thanks for the reply... it turns out it only can't be viewed in iOS official youtube app.
Vieweing in a web browser works (FYI)

My favorite success speakers are Gary Vaynerchuk, Tim Robbins, Dan Pena, Grant Cardone. Do you recommend me some others?
& success = Sweets
GAvin Belson!
... Which the lack of video here demonstrates
boa..his tschöarmen eccent iss rillyy haad to andasteend ^^
wow didn't know about the song of 10cc! here's a documentary covering it: ua-cam.com/video/Qq7oGenbp2I/v-deo.html
I love how half the crowd applaud after the song has finished because they thought it was one of his songs, dam fools.
MORE WEIRD NOISES!!!
epic
0530 COMPOSER INSYRUMENTALIST ETC
Why can't germans pronounce "Per-ram-eh-ters", it is not "Pear-a-meters? lol... just having fun here...
***** Yeah....and we are watching you.
Lol
great talk but the dude could do with some kind of anxiolytic and a glass of water.
lol my thoughts exactly
Watching him hold the glass of water for so long after reading this comment hurt haha. Brilliant speech however!
