Ableton...ya'll better have paid this man handsomely for this. Man I've been waiting years to hear this explanation.
dude i know!! this made my whole day and possibly my next project! lol
Me too
For reeeeeeeelz!
Just the Max for Live section is amazingly enlightening.
It's hilarious that I can completely understand the words he's saying AND have some facility with Ableton, but still have no real clue how he's managed to route everything so perfectly for these live performances. This dude is not just a technician, but a friggin' magician. I think the fact that it's all so clean and well mixed is an amazing testament to his skills as a sound engineer as well.
This guy really deserves the spotlight. What an absolute gorgeous genius
Waited years for this insight. Thanks so much Binkbeats for sharing this, and ableton. Need more like this
Too good of him to share the custom plugin on his website. Seems like a genuine human.
Do you mean the Max Kontrols plugin? Where can I find it?
@@OELMEIJER Its on his website.
@@OELMEIJER I couldn't find it either, but just google "binklooper" and should show up. Thanks to Anders Panders for pointing it out, I wouldn't have known!
@@ComatoseAmoeba00 THANK YOU SOOOO MUUUCHHH!!!
Can we take a second to admire the coffee cup he used to mount his monitor
I have mad respect for that coffee cup
I feel so lucky that he shared with us even the Max Device. Absolutely brilliant way of controlling the recording and launching of the loops. Hands down to Binkbeats.
this is like finding the holy grail
This is another leve entirely in terms of automation. I can understand why it would be a serious challenge mentally to keep thinking ahead to the next part. Amazing
It hurts my brain trying to fully understand how this all works. So impressive and so talented!
When i saw the abelton screen for the first time i had aneurysms
haha! Tell me about it! And here I am in ableton trying to layer a kick drum lol!
Amazing, thank you BinkBeats for sharing your process, and for your great artistry!
I really enjoy all the music and performance Binkbeats puts up. I have always thought there's another behind-the-scene Ninja doing all the Ableton juggling... Thanks for sharing the magic trick and even the Max for Live plug-in!
Thank you so much to BinkBeats for sharing this with us. This information is priceless for live musicians.
This makes me cry, how beautiful it is!!!
thank you so much BinkBeats and Ableton for sharing this information! :)
damn this guy has a truly amazing setup, he has an artistic approach to the technical side of music, true genius
finally!!! love and so much respect for this guy. thank you so much for sharing this with us.
I'm thoroughly impressed! I had no idea that you could do such things in Ableton. I swear ever time I get a new peace of gear Ableton can already do it.
This is great. Excited to learn more from this artist. Thanks Ableton for featuring him.
Binkbeats, this was so cool of you. Thank you.
(see you at you London gig)
Whao, that's a beautiful setup!
Incredible setup!
sharing knowledge is pure music, thanx & respect!!!!
Wow, I often check this video when I'm stuck in Ableton. It almost always solves my problem. Well done man!!
What a great explanation.. thanks for sharing this... It´s perfect for what i want to do...
Absolute Genius.
Man when he went 9/4 I just threw my laptop out the window.
It's not that hard. And you know he sits and practices that shit for hours and hours.
I caught it when i was walking by. Get it back on www.ithrewoutmylaptop.com
I saw him live once. I used to live next to his studio. Insanely talented musician.
He most certainly sounds and looks like it! He has such in-depth. knowledge and talent on using his rig and composing his tracks.
All bow to the great and powerful Brinkbeats! Thank you for finally imparting us with the holy grail of looping knowledge! I had to watch it a few times, but I finally got it working. If anyone has any questions I'd be happy to help.
for audio it works well. have you used it with midi?
@@kittensinkmusic Yes, it's a bit glitchy with audio, Ive had issues getting it to launch a clip specifically.
@Mike Mastronardi - Have you had any luck de-arming the track after you launch the audio or midi loop? I've got the plug-in working fine for both but I cannot, via the automation, get the track to de-arm on the active track. I tried to setting the off position in automation at the last beat before, on and slightly after the clip launches but it does seem to work. I've tried changing the automation activation order many times but no luck yet. Thanks.
Hello Mike,could you give us the different steps to make this wonderful tool work correctly ? Thanks
still love your work!!
Yes! 🔥🔥
amazing! thanks for sharing!!
this guy is amazing, ableton is amazing.
Dope..Inspiring..Thank you so much!!!
Binkbeats ftw on anything related!
Damn! So cool. My brain is a little melted but I'm hoping I can can mold it back together.
This is very impressive.
Cool to see someone working with complicated time sigs.
Mega awesome.
What a talent
Do you have more videos like this, explaining your process? It's an amazing way to develop my artwork. THANKS!
Very cool thanks
I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS VIDEO FOR YEARS!!!
I’m going to watch this at least 100 times😐
Here again, watching closely for the ±5th time. Anybody else notice the monitor is being held up by a cup?
Ah!... I finally see how he automates his routing!!! He just uses the Ext. Audio Effect....💡
Still working this video. It's become such a reference to me for live performance. Wondering if it's possible for a single instrument to play multiple loops since each instrument has a single channel and a single sample...🤔

The man is a genius
Very nice and helpful video. Gonna try some ideas and concepts. I wonder what's the utility of sending the fx tracks to the send B even where the output goes thru a external audio device?... Any ideas?
Man! I need to see him do this Live (pun fully intended!)
Genius!!!!
Thank you to everyone involved for the priceless knowledge! Now to the next question on everyone's mind: Bink, what track is this!?!?? I need it!
th-cam.com/video/5FmRM2U8vRo/w-d-xo.html
Genius
This is a great explanation I just wish this wasn't so anally complicated
A more in depth look at ways to use the max 4 live device would be super appreciated! So far I enjoy things about it very much but a few of its functions are not explained in the instructions that come with the download.
Hi Jared, that's a great feature request. We forwarded it to our team to take into consideration. Feel free to sign up on our Centercode Forum where you can share your suggestions with our developing team directly: bit.ly/2doYK8b Thanks!
@@Ableton something happened in between? a new video? an article?
this guy is the future....
also my head hurts
Thanks for the video! Does anybody know which mic models he is using?
What is the arm reset button for?
Yes
I've been using this plugin frequently recently and I can't start my clip to play on the first beat of my scene. It always start on the on the next bar. In this video the Quantification Menu is set to 1Bar and his clip starts on the first beat of the bar. What am I doing wrong?
Does anyone know, what is the correct way to program or configure the max plug-in that works to record audio clips? or where can I download it?
🤯🤯🤯
alguien sabe, cual es la manera correcta de programar o configurar el complemento de max que funciona para grabar los clips de audio ? o donde lo puedo descargar ?
I wanna know what the specs on his pc are running all those clips and scenes, I run like 7 and my ableton pc usage is like 70%
wow
did anyone ever get quantizing to work? i can't find an example of someone using it
Could you guys at Ableton make FKJ do something similar to this? He uses a very similar system but he uses Push to achieve this, it would be awesome!
Anyway thanks for this, it was amazing walkthrough.
I dreamed to learn how to achieve this
Hey ! Wonderful job ! What is that magical plug-in used to create these automated dummy scenes?
i think just create new empty midi clip, add only automation to it
whats the Casio device on his board?
Hi, does anyone know how to program that button that starts the following scene?
It seems something so easy but I couldn't manage to find a way...
Ok, I managed to do it. It's the play button that appears when you click on MIDI Map ;)
This is gold , What's the plugin he is presenting ?
Hey there! You can download it here: www.binkbeats.com/binklooper
Do the same thing with laptop and groovebox. His stuff is more interesting to watch !
Is there a way, without max live and his plugin, to have a clip play in one scene, stop in the next scene, and then start again in the next scene, like he does with the drums at 9:10? Or is that something that requires max?
Clyphx pro
Anybody know what audio interface hes using?
I’m trynna figure our how to automate the audio tracks like that. Does anybody know how he does that?
I just released a comprehensive Bink Looper tutorial on my page, in case you're still looking for help!
had to rewatch this about 5 times to understand what was going on
I thought I got it after the first couple times, but the more I watch, the further away it gets ;)
Just 5 times? You're amazing.
I was wondering what interface could be used to get the RME Octamic II's into the computer? Something that accepts AES?
monofied ferrofish a16 mkii
I’m assuming each of those preamps are connected via a pair of optical cables for ADAT. Most multichannel interfaces with larger channel counts have 1x1 ADAT i/o ports, but some have 3 or 4. I don’t know the name offhand but I seem to recall MOTU having a popular model that does this.
Can someone tell me where I find that plugin Kontrols_midi_3? Great video btw!
check abletons blogpost, there is a download link: www.ableton.com/en/blog/binkbeats-in-and-out-loop/
Thank you!
everytime we record something on ableton, the levels of the recorded information is lower than what was/ is being heard? No matter what soundcard, level of unity (master volume) or even mixer, the recorded output is always lower than the monitored one ...
I was having trouble with this too, but I found out that it was happening because I was monitoring from both the audio interface ("raw" input) and from ableton, so the resulting output when playing was 3dB higher than clip output alone. Pay attention to using proper monitoring options for your tracks and see if you have a problem there ;)
@@LordRimoah hi Marco. Thanks for the reply. I use the core-audio direct monitoring. Using a RME fireface. Since ableton monitoring always has a lag. Once recorded I have to remove the Warp in order to hear the raw waveform.
Two quick thoughts on this: You can turn off the automatic Warp setting in Preferences. While you’re there, try setting your audio buffer down to 64 or 128 samples. It uses more system resources, but you should find that the delay when monitoring through Ableton will be reduced to a negligible amount, hopefully eliminating the need for your RME direct monitoring.
Shoutout to Hoffmann2k for being the first dude to figure out "dummy clips" back in the day.
Hey people, I've started using his plugin. It works fine, except from the Quantize function. The quantization automation doesn't seem to trigger quatization button in the plugin. All other automations I draw in work fine, except this one. Quantization only happens if I manually press the button. Can anybody help? Many thanks. And of course thanks again to Binkbeats for sharing it for free!
hi is that plug-in called kontrols_midi_3 ? where can i get that one ? thanks
Hey Patrick, any news on the quantize setting ? I can't get it to work and i'd be interested if anyone knows
I got the same problem here
Hey I have the same problem . Is it possible to automate the quantization of the clip directly after the recording of the loop? For example I loop 16 beats and want to quantize it at the 17th beat automatically!! Can you help me? Thanks!
What does the "next song" scene do?
pretty sure it'll load up new song, but was wondering too how that works and especially how fast / glitch-free?
does anyone know what microphones he is using for the instruments and vocals??
Looks like DPA 4099 are used on xylophone 10:49
Jeeeezus those are pricey.
It'd be great if he could show a simplified version of how to set up an automated template.
I actually just released a comprehensive tutorial on Bink Looper. Hope it helps.
anyone have an idea what kind of computer monitor he is using?
It's nothing special: Acer AL2216W
If you like to loop, check out this device for Ableton: m.th-cam.com/video/XJCLVWmfOd0/w-d-xo.html
How do handle latency issues?
Hi there! Please have a look at this article to learn how to reduce latency: bit.ly/2MvB59g. We hope this helps. Cheers!
Happy days. ive got the pluggin working! Thaks Binkbeats:) here's a example of my set with the binklooper th-cam.com/video/G9w39KPGqk0/w-d-xo.html
Anybody else come across issues with the record button?
for midi, yes. i can record the first loop for a midi instrument fine, but then starting the second one does not work after deleting the first - record button doesn't engage. ? (i may have the automation out of order, but i've tried many different orders . . . )
Hi there, what issues are you experiencing? Thanks for letting us know! Cheers.
@@Ableton although i'm still in the middle of putting this project together all seems to be working fine now - the order of the automation is indeed very important, but also i found that i have to first instantiate the Max device on each separate track or it doesn't work. i have M4L only and not the bought Max 8.0.3, though i guess i do have the trial version? i'm still not sure about how those differ - maybe you can clarify? (Live 10.0.6)
I'm having more of issue turning off the arm button. I found arming the track on separate dummy clip works better. However, once the clip is launched on the launch dummy clip I cannot seem to get the track to de-arm. What am I missing? I tried to set the automation point right at the final beat when the loop is launched in the launch dummy clip but the track remains armed. And would agree with Bink Beats, you need to be able to turn off the mics and inputs as you go. Input appreciated - and thanks to all the developers that created it. The recording/launch functions in both MIDI and Audio are working great so far.
@@LeviStrickland i'm just using ClyphXpro to de-arm tracks.
:-)
"reich 3" interesting song name lol.
don't underestimate cardboard boxes of your childhood
Nice thick info here instead of ableton's usual adverts for potatoheads
how it is possible to loop in ableton without a loop station?
You can loop a clip, or use the looper plugin on any track.
I'm retarded.
confusing as hell
And this is just a workflow... 😮 Suddenly I don't want to learn looping
I don't like this workflow... why not use push2 and dummy clips and go?
You could not do what he does with only a push
@@DJRY360 push and dummy clips
there is a lot more than push going on..
great setup - bad music
Alexander Go and watch his actual live performances. This was like a demo of his set up
hahahaha
Boring !!!!
