@joshtrinnaman Thanks again. I noticed on the video that you put all the different drums, perc, melodies, etc. On different channels. Well, I've just discovered an app like that named remixlive. I will try it like this in ableton. I am an fl studio user but i have ableton aswell because it is better for a live setup.
@@cph2004 That app looks like a very similar workflow, just had a quick look at it. I havent used iPad / iOS apps too much but reckon it'd do the trick too. FL's amazing for production, particularly crazy electronic music but yeah, Ableton just makes your life so much easier for live performance IMO
@joshtrinnaman on that app, you can import your own samples if you want to. I've just bought the novation lauchpad mini mk3 to start off. Again, your videos have given me a more understanding of music making. Thank you.
Nice! Yeah for sure. Sometimes you might want to run a synth/VST plugin from your original track actually live in real-time, so you could do that by grabbing the MIDI from your original project and putting it into Ableton as a clip like this, and load the VST so you can tweak the sound of something live by changing parameters within a synth plugin, for example. I've avoided that here and only used Audio tracks with a couple FX on them to keep the CPU cost as low as possible; some VST synths are very CPU-hungry and I wanted this method to work for anyone without needing a powerful machine, but if you can its fun to experiment with!
@@stuff6218 100%, not essential at all. Can also automate plugins to turn on & off in your session, so you've only got CPU-heavy plugins running when they actually need to be on. Think it'd be boring to show in a vid but thats how I used to blag running a lot of synths on an older laptop without stutters live
@@joshtrinnaman I'll have to look into that. My music would have to be restructured a fair bit for live, I think. Big project! I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on it. If you fancy a listen I'll wang you a link. Always enjoyed catching LUO back in the day.
@@stuff6218 I'd love to mate, pop a link on over! Oh you've actually seen me live ha! I think you might've mentioned that elsewhere if I remember right, but cool to hear again. Been sitting on new Luo music for ages, there will be a new release at some point.
Nice video. This helped a lot. Thank you. I hope it helps others as well. Keep up the great work.
Glad you spotted this mate really glad to hear it was useful! All the best on your performance journey 🎛️

This is giving me ideas. I suppose you could bounce dry tracks and have some of the original VST controls to automate live. Thanks Josh!

@@joshtrinnaman yeah, best not to preface your accessible tutorial with - First you're going to need a £2000 laptop, haha.
