  • Ableton Live has a number of excellent delay plugins, but did you know that you can use them for a lot more than just echo? In this video I explore 6 creative ways you can use Ableton’s delays in your music making.
    00:00 - Intro
    00:15 - Create Width with Delay
    03:21 - Tape Effects with Delay
    04:44 - Analog-style Chorus and Flanging with Echo
    08:20 - Analog-style Looping with Echo
    12:20 - Pitch Shifting with Grain Delay
    In the video you’ll learn how to create stereo width using Ableton’s Delay and something called The Haas Effect; how to get fun tape-style pitching effects also using Delay; how to create analog-style Chorus and Flanger effects as well as interesting analog-style loop textures with Ableton’s versatile Echo device and you’ll learn how to use Ableton’s Grain Delay to create a granular pitch shifter.
    ⬇️ DELAY RACKS DOWNLOAD
    Download a free set of Effect Racks to easily achieve the effects from the video.

    In the video I also discuss two concepts; The Haas Effect and Mono Compatibility. Learn more about those below.
    👂 THE HAAS EFFECT
    The Haas Effect is a psychoacoustic phenomenon that creates the illusion of stereo width by splitting a mono single into separate left and right channels and then delaying one of the channels by a few milliseconds.

    🔈 MONO COMPATIBILITY
    Mono compatibility refers to making sure that your mix sounds as close as possible to the stereo version if its ever played back in mono (which is more often than you might think!)

    This guy. Shares next level technical insights and patches to immediately put them to use. Makes better looking videos than most courseware I've paid for. And has a totally Audible or ASMR ready voice. Hey Spotify where's his $100 million contract? :D Excellent stuff once again Tom :)

      To say the truth, basically all loopers are just echo devices...

    • @kirtandreamrezzer
      @kirtandreamrezzer ปีที่แล้ว

      Looping is just a delay (echo) with 100% feedback. We studied delay loops in the early 70s, using two reel to reel tape recorders like Delia Derbishire's experiments. Brian Eno made it popular collaborating with Robert Fripp and called it "Frippertronics."

    • @pursuitofsound3120
      @pursuitofsound3120 ปีที่แล้ว

      It's even more fun when you put different effects inside of the feedback loop. My channel isn't actively making new content anymore but I did make a tutorial on how to do that.

    2:25 You can create an effect rack to get around the problem with phasing problems:
    The effect rack should have 3 chains:
    Left - one Utility set to left channel mode
    Right - one Utility set on Stereo with the phase of right channel switched + Delay on 100% wet
    Dry - empty
    This is the same technique iZotope uses on Mode 1 in their Ozone Imager plugin
