Where is the next episode bro? Your tutorials have the been the ones to help me the most off of youtube. This one helped me complete and upload my first dubstep mix! I just bought a dj controller because of it and want to keep learning :)

[@joshnic]

Ahh dude thats great to hear I'm so glad I could help! I've been really busy the last 6 months working on a big project but I do want to get some more tutorials done soon! Is there anything you want to learn I haven't covered yet? Let me know and I'll try make a video on it soon

[@bY_n0ne]

@@joshnic Yeah youve helped me a ton already so far as well. I would say some videos on producing and learning the Ableton. You have a gift for teaching man

[@TRISEKT]

thank you so much for this

[@tommiel6740]

Hi, thanks a lot for the videos. Which version of Ableton Live does one need to do all this? Would most be doable with the Intro version? Thanks !

[@PT-mo9mg]

do you need to turn down your individual tracks so it doesn't red line the master? when i do this, i bring everything back up with a limiter on master, but at high volumes, it actually distorts the sound :S

[@fotisapopsis]

Just drop them 1 dB and go to live session to see the peak volume if it's the same to every track so there is no gain differences.

[@NarutofusionFX]

Hi, quick question.. Why don't you use the EQ3 instead?

[@fotisapopsis]

Right
