It would be great if in the future you could do a slightly longer video with demos of what you are explaining right after you speak about them. I’ve finally used all these methods but it’s a little difficult to apply from your video alone. I really like your manner so I would have preferred to just watch your video but there wasn’t quite enough detailed info on how to follow through with all the info in real time. Lovely video bud!
I do use Ableton and that's what brought me here, but my primary looper is an RC505 Watching this gave me some ideas on different approaches to that setup. I like the way so many musical ideas cross pollinate, it's endless.
@@HugoMoroux Definatly. I use Ableton to add keyboard loops to the RC and also the TimeLines Looper. I mostly having no over arching tempo control and find this gets some interesting swing and poly rhythmic "surprises" Of course sometimes it a mess...
Thanks you good sir for helping to demystify Ableton’s Looping abilities. Before this video I was a bit stuck between the hardware and software looping world.
This is awesome! I'm familiar with looping pedals but am just starting to look at Ableton for software looping. Your multi-loop setup has a lot of potential to do the things I want, and I even may have a midi controller like the one you showed available to me. I'd like to make use of this sort of setup and see how I might make use of it at my church and an open mic I occasionally go to. Thanks for the video! Love it!
Thank you so much. This is a great video. I have an issue with record quantization. Whenever I enable it, it makes adds weird double notes to my drum pad. I've tried every troubleshoot that I can think of, change gear, uninstall and reinstall, chase midi note but still no luck. Any suggestions on what I can try to fix it?
Lovely video.. My process is a broken version of Step 2.. Since I don't have the 'Looper' effect (#abletonlitegang), I directly record audio onto the clips.. And I record/trigger them using the pads on my midi keyboard. Wish midi foot pedals had cheaper & more available options.. PS anyone reading my comment, check out the amazing track names at 8:47 ..
You might already know this, but you can get closer to a version of the first method if you set Ableton's global quantisation to none. That way you're not locked on to the grid either. Not my preferred way of achieving this, but could be a nice workaround for Lite!
Hi. I came to Ableton by the fact that it was not possible in Cubase to simply shoot a guitar loop for my edrums noodling sessions. I tried it with Groove Agent, but... Anyway, here I got of the track as you start to use the grouping. I have to watch this again. The chain selector I know. 😊 I use it to use different presets in Superior Drummer 3. Is it possible to save "states" in Ableton with regard to the routing? Or switching on/off VSTs? I would guess it might possible. You know, setting an Ableton drum rack, a few SD3 kits or chromatic percussion in an FX rack and then switching the MIDI routing of the ekit, sample pad to SD3, or drum rack...
If you could please show how you mapped the FCB1010 in ableton, that would be greatly appreciated. Including, the mode the FCB1010 needs to be in, including, how you configured inside the FCB1010
Hello grear video!! You gave me a lot of idaes. I have one question. If you add looper on channel group it doesn’t record audio from return tracks( reverb, delay) Do you have any suggestions? Tnx
Yes, if you want to add effects to your loop, it's best to put them on your instrument tracks that go into the loopers. You could also send the loopers to the return tracks and add spatial effects that way
Besides the quantisation options, not on the looper itself. The looper follows your project, so this means you could use your metronome to count yourself in if you have the looper quantised to the project.
Hello, thank you! i m used to the BOSS RC 505, which means a) visual feedback of EACH looper, everytime! b) absolutely zero latency when it comes to "Transpose" and "Guitar to bass" effects (basically pitch shifter, octaver). I tried re-creating the rc505 in ableton but both a and b wont work, haha. What a pity! And that's with a very good CPU/RAM/SSD and RME Babyface interface. When i use e.g. the max for life simple pitch shift, or a 'bigger' VST, everytime the latency/Delay for the vocals is too high to have fun with and beatbox tightly. Do you have some tipps for both problems mabye? i m also wondering if the Ableton Push2 would be able to show several looper plugins in its display, but i ve never ever seen anything like it in any video on YT. Very strange for a "live" DAW.
Hi there, I'm not sure if it's possible to visually represent the device view of multiple tracks. Perhaps if you set up a second window, you could at least see two simultaneously? As far as latency goes, Max for Live sadly seems to introduce some delay for me as well, so I avoid them for live sessions. Outboard gear such as effect pedals is probably your best bet to minimise latency!
@@HugoMoroux Thanks, i kind of expected this - interesting that you also get some delay with those plugins. Concerning the second window of Ableton: this is a sad story also because somehow they decided that only 1 clip-view can be open at a time. So the other window gets forced into Arrangement view, when the first has ClipView, haha!
Could you make it so that the recorded loops in each looper get recorded into separate audio tracks, so that they become clips in the session view ready to be triggered let’s say from the push 2 controller? Or with the midi foot pedal controller like you have, just switch to another midi bank and trigger them from there? does that allow for more intricate live looping possibilities or is it rather impractical? The reason I’m asking is because I’d like to have the possibility to post process/ mix whatever I came up with after a live looping performance. Also: I’m I was to have some performances in 4/4, and others in 6/8, is there a way to switch between those tempos via mapped midi as well? Is there a way to have Ableton detect the tempo of what I input in first, so that the rest of my live looping / clip recordings are in sync?
Sure, I think pretty much every button in Ableton can be MIDI mapped. It might not always be the most convenient approach, but technically it should be possible
@@HugoMoroux thanks for the reply- what buttons and in what configuration would you go about it? Because tbh, I am overwhelmed and confused, loosing my track of thought 😅
Recorded loops can be clicked and dragged into the arrangement view, or your clip slots, which would be one way of saving those loop recordings. For tempo detection, you can MIDI map your tap tempo button, or set your first looper up to 'Set & Follow song tempo'. And when it comes to time signatures changes, I think they're best set up per scene (in the Session View). You can do this by typing the meter in the name of the scene itself. As always with Ableton, there are multiple ways of doing things - I hope this helps make you a bit less overwhelmed, I know it's not the easiest thing to explain in text!
@@HugoMoroux thanks for replying. Yeah I was hoping to set it up so that I don’t have to manually drag recorded loops in a separate audio channel while live looping, but have it set up hands-free😅
Hi! I want to start live looping with various acoustic instruments and I need many mic imputs, so I was considering buying an analog usb mixer. Concretely the mackie profx12v3. Do you recommend that kind of device to work with ableton? Thanks a lot for the video!
I have no experience with USB mixers, but as long as it connects to Ableton, you should be fine in terms of building a looping setup like the one I demonstrated in the video
Do I really need a midi foot pedal to start looping? I’m a multi instrument player and I want to start live looping and I use logic so it’s kinda hard for me to understand how Abelton works and you kinda helped me! Tyvm I’d like to talk with you for more small questions 🙏🎵
Not necessarily, there are other types of MIDI controllers available if you prefer to use something else. A foot controller is convenient because it allows you to be hands-free. Happy to discuss further. Feel free to reach out to me: www.hugomoroux.com/lessons/
Nice tutorial, thank you! I am looking to do loops for different guitar parts with different effects, for e.g one rhythm, a lead and then transposing the guitar to a bass. At the end of the first guitar part I would like to immediately play the second part and not wait for the loop to loop again, is this possible with the last setup you had shown? Would I be able to hit a second pedal to change the track (second guitar part/effect)coming into the loop and it will keep looping? I have managed to get this working with the session view and not using the Ableton looper but I have to hit 3 pedals: Hit the first pedal once to stop the loop Hit the second pedal once to move to the next track Hit the second pedal again to start that loop Sorry for the long question, hope that makes sense. If I can just hit one pedal once this would be ideal.
If I understood your question correctly: you can split your parts up into two different tracks, and then connect a pedal to stop the first track while playing the second track. You'd have to have your set planned out for something like this of course (perhaps pre-recording some parts before the performance), which probably wouldn't work great in an improv scenario. I hope that helps
@@HugoMoroux I usually have a rough plan, I basically want to loop but have each guitar part in a different track for different effects. When the first loop ends, I want it to keep playing and basically overdub immediately with the second track. At the moment I can only do this hitting the pedal 3 times as described above but wondering if it’s possible with the Ableton looper setup like you have shown. I think I’ll need to do some experimenting 😅
How did you program the FBC 1010? I got a new one but can't program it I spend all my free time trying to set it up to send cc to Ableton/ Guitar rig 6. I've watched every tutorial going back 12 years . Absolutely nothing works it doseint do anything. Any suggestions?
I'd recommend having a look at the manual on Behringer's website. You can find the entire process of how to set up and program your switches in there: mediadl.musictribe.com/media/PLM/data/docs/P0089/FCB1010_P0089_M_EN.pdf
Yo! Is there a way to have a separate count in for the looper, so whenever I hit record it will give me a full bar of click? I can’t figure out how to do it but it seems like it should be possible.
Nice✨🎶..I’ve been using a version this method for many year’s..its deep You can map a knob to the macro on the audio fx rack and select as many loopers as you like..level looptastic
keep rewinding ! the thing missing here is Looper A / B are set up like scenes but not. It would be nice to integrate it , how to get the best of both worlds! ? You might want to use the looper for guitar/voice and the rest on midi clips? why would that be better than the looper set up on a return track? Thanks anyway
Sure, you can always combine method 1 and 2 in whichever way you want, depending on what instruments you're using. That's basically what method 3 is doing, with a specific way or organising the many different instances of the Looper audio effect. The problem with return tracks is that you'll continuously be sending audio to them, unless you manually disable the send - so that's unfortunately not very effective for our purposes here. Groups are a neat way of circumventing this problem, because they're only audible as soon as the recording is playing back (this is because we set the 'Input > Output' control on the Looper in the group to 'Never'). I hope that clarifies things a bit. It's a pretty complex set up the first time around, but it'll make sense as you put it together bit by bit. Good luck!
nice but i never change my loop tracks just instruments and on/off chord and loop tracks for live arrangement that's important to a live season to switch to different variation of a song you playing and performing
This seems so complicated, needing a degree in Abelton just to do one song. Surely backing tracks would be less of a headache? But guess that takes the fun out of it 🙂 I guess I just cannot understand the process too easily.
I guess it ultimately depends on what you're trying to do. If you want to stack loopers with different effects, it's definitely more involved - but you can start simple with a single looper and perform that way too
@@HugoMoroux I recently (5 or less days ago) got ABLETON live suite 9,and I've been looking for any REALLY BEGINNER videos for live session, I've been playing with loopers for a while, so I'm trying to incorporate looping without actual loop pedals,
@@kezosikuka1870 you can use anything that has midi to trigger loopers but if your hands are busy why not foot pedals? … they have those funny midi rings that send midi based on twisting your fingers in very awkward ways… that would work too though..
I can see it being overwhelming if you're not familiar with Ableton. Probably a good idea to experiment with the first two methods as those are a bit more accessible!
Definitely recommend not calling the tracks Like Comment and Subscribe. That was distracting and doesn’t make me want to subscribe.. if anything it achieves the opposite effect.
