- Producing music with a time constraint can be a great way to get out of your head as it forces you to think quickly and trust your instincts. In this video we set a 10 minute timer and try to make an entire hip hop beat as quickly as possible. We also talk through the workflow and share some Ableton Live tips and shortcuts.
Get the sounds used in the beat:

"So, as Always, I will start with Omnisphere"
Me: "Fck…."
I can't find in my Ableton...
@@marsu191 It's a plugin, costs like $500 but you can probably crack it from somewhere
Awesome tutorial. The tutor did a great job in 10 minutes. This channel has earned my subscription.
This is absolute madness. I recently just switched to Ableton and am in love with it, but it's lack of having a drum step sequencer is really driving me nuts. Because this man is obviously an Ableton wizard, he made it look quick and easy, but this "drum rack, draw in midi notes" business is for the birds...Even so, what he did to create the drum pattern is still the long way around in comparison to having a step sequencer. FL, Studio One, and now Logic (as well as others I'm sure I'm missing), all have drum step sequencers built into them. Ableton really needs to catch up to 2020.
Yeah, I have to say for beat making, and especially beats from sampled music, FL Studio is still king. I don't use it so even with Ableton 11 I still can't do shit in it that I could with FL.
I'm a FL Studio user and I tried Ableton and I do like it apart from that step sequencer.
FL Studio still has the best one.
Ableton has a step sequencer and with the push controller its very good
Loving the energy in these beats fr 🤟
love it
Actally one of the best videos on how to use ableton to make a nice simple hip hop beat. Although there isnt much explanation going on, i could really take a lot from it. Thx so much
Slick work!!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Amazing video, great promotion for splice aswell as I'm confident in your sounds after seeing this video
Some great freestyle material right here, cheers 🔥
Great job! I love too much as you these musical stress tests :D
Superb instrumental.
Daaaaamn! Killed it!
Uowwww.... Thx from Brazil!!!
Woow!! This is awesome!! Keep it Up!!🔥🔥🔥
Excellent beats!!
This ... a step in the right direction. Me gusta :) if you can, y’all should do RnB or something in the 60-70/120-130 BPM
Superb track.
Damn @nickthechen 🔥🔥🔥. I've just discovered these videos on Splice, but you've inspired me a lot with these speedruns.
Great work.
Great video great advice at the end thank you
Great video! It's a good template on where to start if you already know how to work the program.
Sounds sick as hell
cheers!
I love the Excel skin!
Awesome vid: learnt loads
Thank you
🔥 DAMN!
Great beat!!!
this is the way
This man real good here
what a banger △!
Good beat!!!
my man DECAP!!
Wow
Why you don't leave his IG or his YT channel in the description?
This is @nickthechen, he's on the Splice marketing team.
Nice track.
Nice beat.
good stuff
lit bro
It´s my birthday today! Thanks for the video
Happy birthday, enjoy!
@nickthechen Im your 1000th insta follower lol😎 just felt like I had to put that out there...
Dope beat!!! You should try this with a reggaeton beat!!
What is the chain order for your simpler and drum rack?
💥💥💥
Hi, what are you using to manage your library? Is it a plug in? it seems very practical
It’s the Splice desktop application! 😎 Very useful for filtering and organizing your library.
I feel so much pressure watching this 😂
Kalm down
🎵🔥
Can u make a video including all the small things like paint view, shortcuts and etc
I'm curious, I know that its built on C minor but what is the actual key and or scale? That natural B and the G major chord sound great on it, but not knowing how is making me anxious.
It is specifically the C harmonic minor. (C D Eb F G Ab B ) . When the V chord (or G in this case) is a Dominant 7th (G B D F ) it gives a very distinct feeling.
@@nickthechen bless you man and thank you
I need to work on my finger dexterity. To play that guitar melody would take me more than 10 mins :(
Reuben Raman lmao same. Which is why I always just draw it in the MIDI clip
He didn't play it all that great either tho. He just quantized it. I can't do that shit. When I'm playing something I keep trying til I nail it. Regardless if it's drums, a guitar or MIDI instrument.
It should be considered that it was written on a piano roll.. There are things that are much easier to play on a piano than on a guitar and vice versa, so don't sell yourselves short!
I love artists like LeaF, Camelia, VR, Deadmau5, and daft, and I know how it works but what’s the head on approach to making edm and dubstep etc and how to do it
Cammillia let’s go
is it still good to use a normal typing keyboard instead of a piano keyboard coz i dont have a piano keyboard
Can i get a link for the full song pls?
💪🎵
Hmm , thanks
Can you explain the verse the verse and the hook? I'm having trouble with the difference between the two. If you can explain it in a comment or a video thanks.
bro, I don't have Omnisphere. I wish there would be Abletin tutorials out there without using any fancy 500 dollar plugins
This ain't hip hop this is trap.
and whats trap?
trap is just a subgenre in hiphop
@@maxthestranger ya but we wanted boom bktsk boom boom bktsk not tsktdukduktsk tsjak
@@kurtv7638 hah that's funny.....
@@maxthestranger he speaks the truth..
What was the program that he selected his Samples from?

I'm thinking about switching to ableton 11 but looking for videos of people making tracks in 10 minutes or under.
That's where I'm at in my current DAW. Within seconds of opening my DAW, I can have a melody laid down, and already begin thinking about the other elements in my tracks.
If I can't do that in 10 minutes, that DAW isn't for me lol.
I've tried ableton lite and I did NOT like the layout whatsoever. Honestly navigating most DAWs is trash.
I need my playlist to the right, my browser to the left, sequencer in the middle, and I need 1 click access to the mixer. I also require 1 click access to a dropdown of all my plugins. It's the only way for me.
IDK bt is he using auratone mixcubes as monitors?
Which midi keyboard was he using .??
That was the new Novation Launchkey Mini
please make a beat without drum kit , just from Ableton
ive had my ableton and midi keyboard 3 months now and still cant make a beat like you have in 10 minutes haha
*looks up omnisphere*
$500
Maaannn
This would have been perfect an octave down
I was expecting stock plug ins.
oh, you can also use them to create theses sounds as well
Bruh thought he was Nic Mira and end up sounding like BusyWorksBeats 😂😂😂
what did you click to 4.23?
Highlight empty region and hit shift command + M to create new piano roll clip
@@splice thanks for answer😍
What's the name of the controller? And by the way, you need some years to pay the keys to know how to do that. Other that that, yea, it's easy if you know what to do...
@UCb8xLPa5RP8TnCsU7E5ASKQ Thank you! It looks great!
Launchkey mini mk3
@@theopacalypse thank you. Thinking of buying one. Looks amazing!
@@YFGP1 I just ordered one on Amazon
@@theopacalypse have fun with it, mate!
NEED AN FREE DRUMKIT.. STAY TUNED
Does Nick have a channel
I wonder, how much does all this cost? Minus the computer..
is it supposed to be extremely repetitive?
Have you ever listened to hip Hop before?
HoW to make a drill beat?
try using just ableton live
I like when people say they made something using ableton, but then pull up addons and pianos and everything else LOL
They are just showing off that's why
Hip hop? In what universe?
DNB.......!!!!
I would love producing. But itis extremely hard just looking at it. I am not good at any instruments. I just feel sad about how hard it is...
It's actually easy to get started. Most daws offer a trial. If you are on any apple device, you can get a free copy of garage band.
You don't need to be able to play any instruments. You just need dedication and some music theory. As well as a daw.
You can do it!
@@sachhmoka2953 Thanks yo. I am kinda getting better using reverb and eq.
@@QankoIvanov you are already better than me (I can't add effects to save my life)
@@sachhmoka2953 Go to the mixer thing. On every output there are 10 empty places. In these places you can choose fruity reverb 2, bla - bla other things. To put things especially on the beat (that you make, not the sample), you press the clock on some output( 2 - 10 ) and choose only beats or something, it can be only samples... And yeah. That is how I add reverb on my beat. If you need any help ask me.
@@sachhmoka2953 I am too dumb to learn m theory. I guess I will rock without it lol.
Do FL studio version also
the steps he did would be the same just a different interface
Next Progressive House like Avicii
Ahh. Man. I don't like ableton's workflow. Surely there's a more effective way?
some of those notes way of time and just sounds clouded.. but yeah nice bass line even though one key was off timing and melody was nice sounding. second synth you used for intro sounds shit.. the hi hat thing is trap sounding 160 bpm 80 bpm is slow for hip hop. hip hop is around 90 bpm
Tempo is not indicative of anything my dude. Btw, trap is hip hop.
I mess with your style of music. I think we’d kill it. Check out my work and songs and let me know what you think. I always look at comments and new subs.
Noooooo bro, you created in janre trap, must do in hip hop.
i'ma share this for surei'm also an artist link with my channel I'm stuck on the idea that believing is the first step to achieving lemme know how you like it
That first synth part sounds off to me
Its me or this is a trap beat ...? Not hiphop? Im not sure
For God so loved the word he gave his one and only son so that whoever believes in him will not perish but have everlasting life
creepy sounding
why this guy talk in mono?
Soooooooo by promoting Ableton you basically say “fuck u go buy your own sounds” ???
Synth is too loud.
Accopaniment doesn't match with drum
Omg, it took 10 minutes for him to drop samples and make basic patterns
Not really a 'how to' just you making a beat and giving 2-3 words on what you're doing. To someone that's relatively new to Ableton, Id want to know WHAT AND WHY you're doing it.
160bpm for Hiphop? You sure you’re not making trap bro? 🤣 I watched it all, so realised that you are making trap but that was just my initial thought haha.
Trap is a sub-genre of hip-hop.
Still different enough to warrant using the word Trap rather than Hiphop lol
@@AzzadousStudios yeah i agree but only if you're ignorant of what the word hip hop actually means, I'm assuming you are probably talking about boom bap rap which is also a genre within hip hop as a whole
I admit i was going for a hip hop beat but this was my first beat challenge. I got nervous and pivoted to a trap beat😅.... 160 bpm is where i feel safe 🏡
Nah I know what boom bap is, I just see a video that says hiphop and expect the old school hiphop style, before trap was even a thing. But I guess that’s just my perception of it, i see hiphop I think one thing and I see trap and think of another 🤷🏻♂️😄
Step one learn how to play piano
