- How does EOTO do it??
When EOTO say's Live and Improvised all the time, they really mean it!
Jason and Travis take you on a tour of their live show set up, and give an in depth explanation and demonstration of all the gear, instruments, tools, methods, and processes that they use for playing all of their shows.
Thanks to Hear See Feel Productions for the video.

![Thoughts on Live Performances [Ableton Push 3 Standalone - Model1 - Octawave ]](/img/n.gif)
I was killing some time before an EOTO show in Ft. Collins and literally just bumped into Jason, he bought me a vegas bomb and chatted with me for a minute. I was already an EOTO fan…but I will never miss a show now. Ever.
EOTO is by far my favorite live electronic act. They make you feel really alive and also filled with light if that's possible, because it's the only way I know how to describe it. Every show I go to for the last three years just gets better and better! If you wanna see some poorly filmed EOTO live sets check out my page.
Yes, and I should have pointed out that I was able to listen to EOTO while in a sober state as well before my comment got downvoted to oblivion. They were incredible. Never encountered anything like 'em.
Saw EOTO live for first time at Resonance fest in Ohio last night. Wow! These guys are musical geniuses, creating and improvising nonstop beats, melodies and vocals. Their improvising is much like jazz artists, only more vivid and eclectic. Their live set drew me in gradually and then to a mesmerizing level. Truly a captivating performance! Their mastery of real time music creation is amazing.
yes!
Guys I saw your last two shows in Bellingham and Seattle and you make every experience wonderful. The fact that you posted this shows you really care. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and I'm sure many others in our community.
they made it all work for me, get down with your funky selfs friends. Hyped to see these guys in a couple weeks in Cambridge, Mass., just saw them at Lockn 2016, I'm a new very stoked fan. Thanks EOTO you guys bring it!
Truly an inspiration. Supersylum would be nothing without the genius of EOTO to influence how we needed to create music! We use an all hardware approach, but very similar in how the music is produced. Thank you guy's for clearing up how you create all of your music live. And thank you for setting the bar higher to inspire musicians like us to create beautiful music using our ever growing availability of technology!!
I've seen the guys twice so far. Easily one of the coolest bands I've ever seen.
If I ever become a DJ/producer I aspire to become as talented as Eoto
Spiritualized lotus
is that louis c.k. on the drums?
These guys are still the shit..... amazing what they can do. Would love to see them live again
Such a master of his domain, Travis really shows us in this video why he is so good at what he does. I just want the behrenger/albleton setup for looping. :)
you guys are going to LOVE Live 9!!!
recording your automations into clips!?
can't wait to see what you guys can do with it
best live perfomance ive seen so far.
Awesome!!! Thats why theres just nothing quite like a EOTO show!
i like how his foot pedal for the LFO is a regular keyboard that the took all the keys off of lol
I've never heard of you folks and came across this vid by chance. I've been working on something similar ( I like to think it's similar in my head any way lol ) and this was very informative and motivational. A lot of performers don't let the people know what they are doing on stage and pass down the knowledge. Thank you for this!!!
Brilliant love videos like this, love the setup. I do total live also, and this makes me want to stay on the live path! Well done guys!
Right I have never seen anything like it they are sooo amazing love them so much.
Cannot wait to see you again! AMAZING! ♡
wow man evrytime is just a flowing act of musical a trip
I saw Eoto for the first time at Red Rocks for Global Dance Festival and they are now my favorite group ever!!! I was just so blown away with how they make produce and I can honestly say they're probably some of the best and most talented musicians to walk the face of the earth! :3
rip
these guys are just all kinds of amazing !
you tell em boys! loved you from the start. keep it up.
absolutely amazing....i always tell people you cant just pickup EOTO and start listening to them....you have to go to a show, you have to get up close, you have to watch them work, watch what they do....its harder now with the amazing Lotus settup but still....you guys are fucking awesome
You guys are amazing keep up the good work!
not first but a good experience i saw them open for lotus it was pretty amazing
hell yeah haha i recognized the lyrics on his ipad from Busta Rhymes "Gimme Some More"
u guys are very talented
i'm in the truman show and this is an apple advertisement
I plan on going to their show in San Francisco in November. :3
they paint an audio picture. sci fidelity for life
Simply Amazing
Tres Cool
Live looping.. thats what I call it.
this is what I would like to call a " live PA. "
thank you for making this video for us! Cheese till its moldy boi!
Cool Stuff :)
damn sick!
have you guys upgraded at all. I'm still so fascinated
He should rock a double kick pedal…..ive been waiting to see someone in electronic music use one for builds and such
He pretty much has one, he just uses the iPad to increase the speed of the kick
jawdrop!
EOTO is a side project of The String Cheese Incident.
the most creative producers out there, not a lick of prerecorded music.... Imagine if skrillex walked on stage without his computer
Gear Overview @ 6:55
this is great but im on youtube looking for ableton tricks none the less you guys kill it.
have you read the automatic caption of this video. quite amusing
smooth as frogs fur
youve obviously been to to many eoto shows to appreciate real music^
Two of the greatest musical events ive ever witnessed: EOTO at the Catskill Chill 2012 and then at Summer Camp 2013... ive never really seen such a high percentage of a crowd just completely lost in the dance... ineffable really... they bring out such a good vibe in the crowd, loss of ego and an invasion of boogie... ok.. Ill stop trying to describe the ineffable... I hope I am attending EOTO shows for years to come.
I believe all of their stuff is 100% improvised, except for their Electric Forest 2012 set... They seemed to have way too many lyrical songs. Plus, the Electric Forest Avenue song. It had to pre-thought of.
just seems like the iPad isn't very accurate.. would be hard to truly get into the flow if I had to constantly press a tiny button right next to a bunch of other tiny buttons
can anyone explain how around 10:00 he is managing to do this? he has all the instruments going through all the tracks, every monitor appears to be off, but once he loops the clip, the monitor turns on. how do they achieve this?
Just turn the monitor to off on the Ableton channel and it won't play back the recording, only a launched clip
thanks mate, i was trying to figure out how he sets his ableton up to just go. it seems like a really great setup
awesomeballz
lol you beat me to that.
Okay, how many of you had your first psychadelic experience at an EOTO show? I know I did.
im like doood butt mann?!? whaaa??
haha @10:12 Travis lets one rip
Huh. I always assumed EOTO made their music with pure distilled magic.
GGGGEEEEEEAAARRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was 420th Like. Woah! Haha
I hope you guys have good lawyers because you literally melted my fucking face off at Red Rocks. I'll see you in court.
When he tries to demo the chop effect and the playback starts, that's such a pain in the ass..
Let's here it then. See what kind of response you get.......
So pretty much i need a shit load of money
I lost my shit when I saw he had a fucking keyboard on the ground to step on. LMAO
He also has a looping station at his feet where he can record and loop
Still amazing
Chris Watts there is a computer keyboard on the ground as well
Chris Watts 11:00 ..........
Chris Watts he’s talking about the computer keyboard
i met god! he never heard of you!
Bout time they uncovered the truth to all the idiots that think they are just another "2 guys and a laptop"
try listening to the string cheese incident, these guys branch off that band and its some real ass music alright
I disagree with you thirdeyevision, I think what their doing is very hard and need deep understanding of their equipment, sounds, and of each other to create what their creating, on the spot.
you've obviously never been to an Eoto show
get some "2 Chainz" in your lyric cheater
so basically he is just stacking short simple loops with spacey sounds. i could do this easily
so what, your ability to also do this means nothing in terms of it's legitimacy
cool let me know when your next sold out show is…..
+Steven Bell so easy huh. link me to your live improv tracks?
Really it's the routing of electronics that seems to be the most complicated.... And assigning controls to the computer so it knows what to do, and learning what is most convenient and when..
This looks like the CHEESE practice room... shed some light on this!?..
and their Red Rocks set was pretty mediocre as far as an EOTO show goes. see them every chance you get, they never disappoint and seem to get better every time
awesome technology, still terrible music. sorry guys. its not just in the gear. but in the art you express, dance music is cool, but i reallly want my art to be artistic, not just sound "good" or "groovy". Everything is so "safe" tonally, theres other emotions other than happy and fun. Travis is an incredible drummer and I think he should play drums, not just layer diatonic riffs that can be manipulated into the right key and time. Give those vocal effects to mike patton plz.
"i really want my art to be artistic" lmaooooooo
they sound great except for those chopped up build ups. yikes! eh eh eh hhhhhhh.
