i always try to watch a new video of yours whenever i see it on my home feed. most of time i end up absolutely loving them. they really make me feel inspired afterwards because you somehow always seem to show something cool. i genuinely hope you'll keep managing to make them! all the best!
So glad to hear that and thanks for taking time to watch and listen to my gibberish 🙏 I try to inspire myself by digging for some cool stuff inside Live so it’s great to hear that it’s also inspiring to you
@@Zdrewe I got that too. I think everyone who pre-ordered or something like that got it. I was thinking more of sponsored videos and such because you're doing really good job showcasing how it can be used. Which IMHO for newcomers/amateurs that get swarmed with deals and videos about new VSTs all the time is priceless. Mainly because it is easy to think that you need those plugins to do good music.
@AeldraNightwood totally agree with “the swarm of plugin deals”. Ngl I was also a big plugin junkie but nowadays there are only a few which I use and can’t live without. Sadly the new plugins that come out offer nothing new and exciting
Ableton should allow for custom skins, knobs, sliders etc on its stock instruments and have them pop-up as a separate window like VSTs do. Ableton's stock instruments serve a specific Ableton design philosophy. That's great. But instruments can be aesthetically pleasing, or made ergonomically more useful outside of that scope.
I'm not quite sure about customs skins although the addition of making ON/OFF switches instead of knobs would be perfect. You can kinda go around with it by using variations (as I've done for those presets and racks) but still... it would be awesome. Speaking of separate windows.... man, recording and cropping Live devices on the bottom of the screen is pain in the ass 😂
Well, in the end, buying Serum is still less expensive than buying the Live "SUITE" version to get these synths :D since literally none of these three is in the standard version of Live xD
I cannot make your stock synth starter rack to work in my ableton live (version 11.3.40). I see it in my User Library map, but i cannot add it to any track.
Thanks a lot 🙏 well, as said in video and description I’m a little bit late to the party when it comes to stock synths as a plugin junkie 😂 those three here were my go to but I’ll definitely put analog into hard tests
Presets in ableton sound « brut » because most of them have no FX, of course, they are in the daw. I use only native tools for stability, CPU, OS upgrade, and to Switch easely between computers. Also, pay 600€ a licence for a suite and use Vst, mmmhh, maybe it’ s better to use Reaper for that.
I think “mojo” is actually a good therm here. The other thing is that no matter the sound you choose, it already has some Fx on. That’s why I try to narrow the gap with this free track I made. If you start both from scratch with basic shapes, they give you the same saw, square, sine etc. there’s no significant difference, at least for my ears. Going back to “mojo”, I think it has a lot to do with how simple wavetable looks compared to fancy and shiny serum. That might be my far fletched conspiracy theory tho
Thanks a lot 🙏 drift is cool but I just didn’t have enough time to play with it before preparing this vid. Some future presets I’ve mentioned will definitely include drif tho 😉
"Why we all chose VSTs instead" - who is "we"? Many people love Live's FM (Operator) and Wavetable (err, Wavetable) synths. And the recent Meld and Drift are fine too
If I use a in the box synth .. I always go to the Ableton stock stuff. Often I chose them over the room of synths and modular I’m sitting in now. I kinda went full circle ⭕️ and use the stock instruments and effects as my go to stuff Yea I got my EQs and compressors and certain reverbs and shit I use from 3rd parties but the built in stuff is wayyyy underrated. Except for EQ8 for boosting lol
First you need to work on sustain knob and make it stay as long as you can. Then the wetness will follow along. Oh, fast attack can be quite useful here too but sometimes it doesn’t depend on you
If YT had a top 5 of ‘who helps you level up learning Ableton’ you’re in my top. Thanks for the 3XS rack.
So nice to hear that 🙏 hahah while making this video I also learned some things about stock synths so I guess it’s a win win 😂
Don’t gatekeep the other four tho
@@MIC16mm hahaha 😂
@SekouTV and he gatekept them 😂
You are killing it!
This (together with seed to stage) is the best music production content about ableton live.
Means a world 🙏 Seed to stage is the goat, in fact as I mentioned "great walkthroughs" about Operator, I had him in mind.
Great sponsor choice 🤩 and video again - being inspired after 20 yrs of operator is a welcome surprise 🙏🏼
I still feel bad about missing out on it 😅 Thanks a lot!!
@@Zdrewe well, on the other hand, you just got another great new toy to experiment with!

Between MTM and your channel, I've learned a lot. Signing up for your patreon once its live for sure!
Gonna be ready with it on the next video drop! Once again huge thanks for checking both channels 🙏🙏
Man I just found you now! and got Ableton 2.1 yesterday.... perfect timing!!!! You are Ableton-BOSS!
Thanks for the sub my friend 🙏
I don't understand why Ableton hasn't sponsored you yet. You're doing such a good job showing how good their software is out of the box.
Hahaha thanks 🙏 if I need to be honest I had an opportunity to play with 12 closed beta but there were no sponsorships involved (yet?) 😅

Wavetable is no serum but so easy to design with, especially 808s and stabs. I've made quite a few sounds
Thanks man...really appreciate your drops. One thing that would be helpful would be noting what level of Ableton you need for each of your packs. Thx
Thanks for the suggestion. I’ll divide them into categories for Live versions 😉
A lot of work goes into these videos
No confirm nor deny 😂

Well, you got me 😂 what’s even better is to just get Vital and forget about all of that
You are ready to MOVE on! 😜

❤❤❤❤
I found,, supreme of all 🙋🙋🙋
My conclusion is to get ideas from third-party VSTs and if possible recreate them with the stock VSTs that come with Ableton.
And that’s a great way to both get better in Ableton stock synths as well as third party VSTs
🤟⚡️
0:13 Only I heard the SUS impact?!
R2R keygen dnb is too iconic to not include it 😂
@@Zdrewe xdd
Subbed 👍🏻
Thank you 🙏🙏
Awesome vid! What's your opinion on Analog? I think it has some pretty great filters
Thanks a lot 🙏 well, as said in video and description I’m a little bit late to the party when it comes to stock synths as a plugin junkie 😂 those three here were my go to but I’ll definitely put analog into hard tests

Wave table is useful for dubstep and complextro sounds. The thing is that serum has a more idk mojo sound imo

Xfiles was made by e-mu wave libraries... may they rest in peace
Stock synths also save you cpu processing
Unless you won’t make a stack of 10 operators with all osc enabled and modulated 😂
imo almost all third party plugins can be replaced by stock ableton plugins + m4l devices, including serum.
Operator best native instrument of all Time
Although I found out that default filter can make it sounds bad so I disabled it for init settings
Great video, but no love for Drift?
Thanks a lot 🙏 drift is cool but I just didn’t have enough time to play with it before preparing this vid. Some future presets I’ve mentioned will definitely include drif tho 😉
Your website seam to be down atm =[
Correction, if you love Serum dont look at Current.
Current became my favorite
"Why we all chose VSTs instead" - who is "we"? Many people love Live's FM (Operator) and Wavetable (err, Wavetable) synths. And the recent Meld and Drift are fine too
I agree. My point was that statistically (and based on a difference in amount of tutorials) people will still choose Serum (etc) over stock solutions.
If I use a in the box synth .. I always go to the Ableton stock stuff.
Often I chose them over the room of synths and modular I’m sitting in now.
I kinda went full circle ⭕️ and use the stock instruments and effects as my go to stuff

The mouse is your best friend... Not really 😅
Should have made a song or something...not sure of point...what did you try using the stock synths for?
make sounds
I need more lessons on how to increase the wetness with my knob.
Thx!
First you need to work on sustain knob and make it stay as long as you can. Then the wetness will follow along. Oh, fast attack can be quite useful here too but sometimes it doesn’t depend on you
Once wetness is sufficient, apply an LFO
@NotAnInterestingPerson and then increase the rate in even increments depending on the tempo. You can slow it down for some happy accidents
@@Zdrewe I think i will have to start making soundtracks for my local Rabbi. Will call my new business ADCR for Attack Decay Climax Release
howcome you call it MATTrix instead of MAYtrix?
He took the red pil
@@Ron-e82 i think he took both pills...
