- I recently had the pleasure of playing a set at the excellent Workinonit event in Manchester's Hip-Hop Chip Shop (huge shouts to Matt Kuartz, Lone Apostrophe and everyone who makes it what it is!).
A few people asked me what my setup was so I figured I'd make a quick video to illustrate how my setup worked.
Feel free to ask any questions in the comments and I'll do my best to answer them as completely as possible.

UPDATE:
The live set is now up on Bandcamp so head over if you fancy a listen to the whole thing:

This is super helpful! Thank you!
This is a beautiful masterclass, thanks so much for sharing Pete! Truly amazing! The beats all sound glorious too - publish the set sometime!
Thanks a load, dude!
Also: just Bandcamped the badboy 😉

Absolutely, I learned so much watching this. I think I can get something pretty sweet going with my Twister having seen how this was set up!
very cool pete!
Thank you, mate! Hope all is good with your excellent self 🙌
I’m such a process nerd, totally eating this shit up, thanks for sharing, Pete 🤘🏻🐨😎
My absolute pleasure, mate! I'm exactly the same and it's the kind of thing I want to see from others so I figured there might be some who would dig it if I made it myself
This is sick. thanks for sharing your setup. Really interesting. I was nice meeting you and listening to your set.
Thanks a load, mate! It was a pleasure to meet you too, man. I really enjoyed your set, there were some serious bangers in there and the vocal tracks worked perfectly. Have you and Tommy Evans got another album coming up?
If you only knew how useful this is to me!! 🙌
🙏
(also intrigued!)
Very well thought out! Love how it looks minimal in a good way, so there's little stuff to mess up while being really flexible though.
Yeah, it's very much "do a load on the preparation side of it and make your life easier but still fun when you play live"
Having been at the Workinonit set and seeing this live, getting to see behind the curtain is amazing!!! Mind blowing set and definitely one of the best yet!! Hopefully catch you at next one too mate 🙌👊
Thanks a load, mate! Fingers crossed I'll get over to the next one and I might even manage to bring over any of the family Sasqwax if they fancy it 😎
I’m jealous!
@@PeteSasqwax that would be amazing. 🙏
I love your channel, and I think it will be a perfect reference for me, once I get iPad fixed , and get AUM (for some reason, I never got that, I plan on it as soon as possible)
Thanks a load, mate - really looking forward to hearing your stuff!
Up to this point I hadn’t thought about using sample loops for a live performance like this. I’ve been more focused on the sequences and how they behave when you move from one to the next. It’s quite different and actually more limited than how you’ve set it up with samples. Thank you for expanding my mind on this. This is brilliant!
My pleasure, man! Yeah, the great thing about the loops is that they obviously only trigger at the start of the sequence, which is something that a lot of people seem to complain about without realising that they can achieve just by muting pads and bouncing down sequences
great job, sir ;respect
Great insight in the use of Koala in a live set. I use Beatmaker 3 using scenes and live playing a synth over the top of everything. I use a launch control XL for sound manipulation.
The Launchcontrol XL is an excellent shout - that was the controller I used initially and in many ways it's arguably better than the Midimix (especially with the stock knobs - I have no clue why Akai went with those, they're practically unusable).
@@PeteSasqwax I agree on the midimix knobs. Had one. Sold it. Novation knobs better. Although the knobs on the akai mpd218/226 etc are nice. Well damped.
@@johncarter2741 agreed 100%. I have an MPD232 and they're excellent... but that almost makes it worse about the Midimix - they already had excellent replacements in the building, why not use those?? The LPD8 has the same issue. It's a nice little unit to throw in the back and use wireless with a phone, but I had to replace the stock knobs before I could even use it
Awesome performance setup! I really enjoyed seeing this. That tape echo is beautiful too. Did you get a recording of the live performance?
I may have 👀😉
Yeah, I think I've tried more or less all the echos on iOS and this is far and away my favourite. It's so utterly playable
Nice work mate! Loved your set on Sunday, dark & dubby but with a sense of humour if that makes sense?! Sounded awesome 🔊👌
Ah, man, that makes perfect sense - it's exactly what I'm about. I've always gravitated towards the darker, dirtier end of things but tried to keep the fun in there at the same time. It means a load that it comes across that way! 🙏
@@PeteSasqwax Deffo did mate, loved it 🙌
Can't wait to get over for next month!
@@PeteSasqwax Yeah man, will be a very interesting one next month. Can’t say much but keep your eyes peeled for the deets 👀
@@BobBell. ooof - and I was already massively looking forward to it! Talking to G Kut on Sunday made it clear that March is going to be unmissable too!
Not enough pictures of Pete.
That's the entire internet summed up in 5 words
This answer is maybe even better than the video itself 😂
@@1barllama 😂
Thanks for showing this. I really enjoy seeing how you use koala. Is there audio of the show?
My absolute pleasure! There is a recording of the show - I'm just working out how best to distribute it but it will be available
Just to update: I just put it up on Bandcamp on a pay-what-you-want basis

Enjoy!
@@PeteSasqwax listening now. Cheers!
@@PeteSasqwax really great stuff. You should post this on lines. ✌🏻
Thank you & good call - I will!
2:37 some things don't have bass 😶
😂 it felt so wrong as soon as I'd said it. "Some things don't have a separate bass track because the 808s in the drums take up all the space" is what I should have said!
