This. The amount of beginner-friendly yet useful information you managed to pack into this while keeping it so chill is nuts. Fastest 23 minutes of my life, and I don't even have a Push lol. idk why you randomly popped into my YT feed, maybe the almighty algorithm will make this video explode someday, who knows :) Anyways, keep up the good work, you're a great teacher and a wonderful singer! You just got a new follower on both YT & Twitch

I legitimately expected to not understand anything in this video. I ended up being fascinated by the process and gaining some insights. I will probably never be able to use this information, but have enjoyed the experience of obtaining it.
Glad you enjoyed it!
that's so impressive. it's wild that you can not only carry a conversation, but actively explain what you're doing while making that gorgeous track
Alanna, the way you explain everything is beyond what I saw up to now, thank you so much. I could learn so much from you in a couple of minutes.
I’ve been searching for a video that can actually make me understand how things work and here my search ends and I am fully satisfied with the content and how you have explained each and almost every points. Would love to take lessons from you if you provide. Please let me know. More power!!
YOU DID IT! You made it understandable and enjoyable. Thank you so much Alanna!
Amazing vocals and performance - thanks!!
Thanks for the tutorial! Exciting to figure this out!
Very helpful. Amazing job! Very thankful for you!
What a pleasure to watch. Thanks for this!.

This was breathtaking and insanely useful. Thank you so much for this❤️
Amazing! Thank you so much for taking the time to share how you do things with Live and Push.
Ive watched so many live looping videos. This one got right to the point. Thanks, Great Video.
Your tutorial was very insightful and the chord progressions that you used made it a joy to watch and listen to. Thank you!

Fantastic demonstration of looping with Ableton and Push 2! Thank you for producing this - it's inspired me to give it a try 👏😎
This is amazing! I hope that the whole world sees this video ☀ Thank you so much!!
Magically beautiful!! 🔥🔥🔥
I did not know about the looper plug-in! Thanks for doing this! I’ve been wanting to do more looping like this bc there are limits with my loop pedal. You’re the best! I’m probably gonna watch this a few times
Beautiful explanation. I’ve seen most of this info before but it’s great seeing it all in one place and so cohesively presented. Beautiful song and voice as well. Subscribed! Thanks so much.
Thank you! Brilliant video.

very well explained and when the voice came in it was wow I got goose bumps. Perfect video learning by doing. Thank you so much its been a big help on deciding to buy it.
Been messing with the Push since Push 1 came out waaay back, and I learned a few shortcuts here I never knew existed. Great video. Thanks!
of all the looping explanations this is by far the best one, please post more live looping content. you're goated

This is brilliant. I'm glad I came across this video
This is such a beautiful explanation of how the push 2 and abelton work. Thank you! This video alone saved me soooo much time, effort, and money!
What a great well thought out clear video tutorial! Thank you! Xx
This is so helpful! One of the best explanations and also I love your song
This is great. Thanks for sharing!
This is awesome break down of your process Alanna! Thank you for shearing this with us noobie looper musicians. I am just getting my feet wet with Ableton, this helps a lot! Keep em coming !!
Very nice, thank you! Learned several new things, duplicating, press and hold to arm. I’m only 6mins in! Great work!
beautiful. Thanks for sharing the tips
This is by far one of the best videos on YT explaining how Push is working in a way that I want to use it. You did a great job, have a great talent and I love your calm way of explaining....and you are a great musician ;) Many thanks!
Thanks so much Alanna ; merci i bought my push 2 because of you haha and now once again you learn me what i did not dare to ask you on Twitch how you do all these loop with push. You answer all my question. So Many thanks
Thank you so much! :) I found this video very informative and absolutely cozy and friendly! :)
this was super helpful! thankyou
This is amazing! Nice job, Alanna!!
Thanks Cam!
I bought a push 2 because of your videos, and it's helped so much. Your videos are amazing, really appreciate you
Great video, very helpful, thank you!
Very helpful and so great! And the video, too. ❤️
Many thanks for this video. You are a very talented musician and a very good teacher. Pleaaseee 🙏 make more videos like this! A detailed step by step breakdown of all the tracks/sends/groups would be goddess gift 🥰. You got a new follower from Spain. Thank you!
I’ve been using push 2 for 6 years and this video was so helpful. So talented and such a great teacher. Amazing
Soooo Useful!! Thank you so much. Blessings! 🙏💖😊
Thank you Alanna. Love your voice and harmonies, great video! I have a push2 on order, so thanks for giving me s clear understanding of how to go about looping, i currently use a Boss rc10r looper pedal and it's very limiting. Keep doing you! ☺
outstanding video, thank you so much
thanks Alanna brilliant lesson :)🌠
great video! thanks for the explanation!
Just found this! Great stuff. Thankyou!😀
Wow, beautiful music ♥
Awesome work, you've clearly explained how the magic happens while demonstrating that it's still very much magical ❤
Glad it keeps a little bit of the magic haha
Finale I understood the power in using Push2 🎉 thank you so much!
Hey! Thanks for this video, really helped me a lot to understand and work with Ableton in live situations
Great video explaining how to record on Push in a informative and positive way, thumps up for this nice work :) Nice Teacher and Musician.
don't have anything to add, just commenting to help boost the algorithm for this fantastically informative video. thanks for sharing your process
So amazing!!
Honestly have no way to explain how much time this is saved and frustration with wrong setting I had haha thank you 🙏 love your work!
Thank you so so... so so much haha. I borrowed a Push 2 from a friend and have been trying to wrap my head around a proper workflow after learning how to load and record instruments, and this video was by far the best i've found so far (much better than the Ableton produced videos, imo)
Thank you so much for this video. Much love
Worked , thanks a lot!
Very helpful. Thank you.
This is such a perfect Ableton looping video tutorial.
Beautiful
Thank U and you have a lovely voice!
Very helpful - thank you 🙏🏽
Thank you!!! This is the set up and work flow I would like to have when I get the Push and Komplet Kontrol!!! Play my keys on NI KK and drums on Push!!!
Thanks Alanna! So many ways to use looper and I have been struggling with which one works best for me. One tip I just love is how you map the looper controls to the Akai! You showed me that I don't need the record button and can just use the "+" button for both record and overdub - then the 4 buttons on the Akai can include the clear button! Thanks!
Nice song 😊❤ very good tutorial👍
Great vid. A lotta things make sense now.
Thank you for making this very understandable and relatable, not super complex and arcane.
Also, love the song. Following you on Spotify now
You just solved a major issue for me. I've been hunting for the best live looping configuration. I tried two Arturia Keystep Pros which I really like but I have a larger setup and like recording raw audio too. I tried the MPC Live 2 which is really great but still didn't have the workflow I needed. Ableton with the push controller for recording and launching clips and editing the loop points along with a Novation Launch Control XL for dedicated level mixing is the ultimate setup. Thank you again!
this is legitimately one of the single best tutorials of any subject on youtube
Wow thank you!
Nicely done ,-) I am still very new to the Push2 and this has been very helpful
Literally building a live set right now and am gonna sneakily record my chorus to then play back and harmonize over.
Awesome video. Thanks for the good vibes.
Hell yeah! A great trick
Finally got myself a novation launch pad pro with ableton lite to try this kinda stuff out. this was super helpful thanks Alanna!
now it seems i gotta setup some templates, get used to looping and how the timing works, and practice my instruments again 😂.
very nice vid. great work. thanks.... thank you..
this is INSANELY helpful! thank you so much for making this for us looping noooobs 🖤
More than happy to
Wonderful
Really good!
