Ableton Live Tutorial - Mangling Drum Loops in Session View for IDM/Glitch/AphexTwin Style Beats

In a world with Max for Live Buffer Shufflers and various granular sample mangling technologies, we tend to overlook basic, and often free features that our DAWs can provide. In this tutorial, we look at how Ableton Live's session view can be used to generate glitchy, brain-melting beats from tired old percussion samples.

Love videos like this. Awesome job.

You had me from "Each drum sound is made with Operator". Best presentation I found on youtube, genuinely bringing the complex IDM style that's not so obvious come up with.

[@toneparticle]

Thank you for that! Really appreciate the feedback. Operator is the best - I want to do a whole series on it

[@willhurt3446]

@@toneparticle you should !
I want to make experimental noise music and some IDM. Would you recommend that on abletone wirh push 2 and an interface or hardware instead ? I have yet to find a live performance with said ableton and push.

[@theyhateddavid1062]

damnnn! i need an fl studio version of this, might switch to ableton just for Operator, crazy tool

[@xenopis7862]

I'm working with Logic, and this makes me just regret not taking up live as it seems to be making life a whole lot easier. Nevertheless, very helpful video and I will try and replicate as much of this as possible.

[@juan-xn5kp]

Can you do a cymbal synthesis tutorial. Those operator cymbals sound very real.

[@reverendoz]

getting some ned rush flashbacks

[@FoundationMCR]

subtle compression haha

[@mike-Occslong]

What was tht volume sweep you did on the macros at the end (11:33)

[@final_animal]

What version of live are you using? I can't set the length to 0.0.2 on mine, it automatically corrects the first parameter to 1 and I can't set it to any value below 1. Great technique by the way! Hoping to follow along with the tutorial but I'm stuck already
Edit: My sample was too long, I just needed to turn off looping, highlight the portion I wanted to delete, right click and hit crop sample (then turn looping back on)

[@toneparticle]

Glad you got it sorted. I'm using 9.7, but it should still work 👍
