I could watch this format all day. Give me hour long sets with commentary all day, you have all the knowledge and just helps make us all better in the process.
Lots of great lessons here, thanks for sharing RT! You could deliberately slide over to bring stuff in on the 3, then use the two extra bars for the drop to get back to 1. The key change when exposed like that I think works if it modulates down, and close by in the Circle of Fifths depending on how minimal the melodic content of the part is. If it modulates up or distant from where you begin in the circle of 5ths then it sounds too cheezy like the 80's or straight dissonant when it's bare like that, you could hide it behind more stuff or take two or three steps to get there if you have a target note to reach. So here, G to F# is a bit of a leap, maybe better to step through a couple other keys (say A then B, as they're not too distant and B will very nicely move to F#, or use relative minor of A instead of A; like G > F#m > F# . Key of G has an F#dim in it already which could be a really cool step to the minor F# then the major F#) so land on the F# right when you bring in the new chords to ground it, for that floating down then landing feeling.
Hello and welcome, from now on, you will have No money,cos you blew it on hardware lol. No…keep it simple, get to know what you’ve got And remember, there are lots of free plugins.🙏🏼
Hey ! I dont comment often but it's the second time i come back to this video. Love the vibe, love the workflow. Your videos are amazing. Love and passion from France
This is by far one of your best videos. Very inspirational and extremely useful for learning and getting some ideas of my own. Well done Ricky and thanks for the content!
it's alarmingly paradoxical how a set like this can make one feel so utterly worthless and disheartened at his/her own progress, yet equally as determined and excited to keep pushing ahead to attain this level of mastery. Thank you Ricky. You never cease to amaze and inspire.

Great stuff! Simple and effective setup. You could do a video talking about your approach to vocal samples and how you organize them for this kind of improv sets.
so so dope. Inspiring honestly. You have me wanting to design and build my own live set up like this. Looks mad fun. Look forward to the next. Awesome stuff yo
I wish I could be at the show not only to hear the set again which is great but also to watch Ricky be super excited and proud when those off-the-cuff moments happen better than he expected! 😆Good luck Ricky!
Opening that hold on the sample is a neat trick. Should work fine on my blackbox will try later 🙂 thanks for the chill beats and the glance into your process 👍
Damn dude, this was what I needed this morning. A lot of stuff to take away for my own live jams. Love the fact that you use the tracks in a very similar way to myself. Absolute tight jam, happy accidents and all!
Thx for sharing, saw you at the AIAIAI launch party last week and was curious about the rig. Love how you rocked it and were able to pack it up and roll so easily. Set was tight 🙌🏾
Nah. Wait a minute. I can do this... But i feel / FELT like i need to transition Alot more to hold the audience attention. What youve shown me is ... HOW to be patient and let it ride. This is inspiring I listened to the entire 25min... Good Job
Ou Yes Ou Yes, this is your best content , jamming house with hardware you enter in the zone and sound much better than doing the same thing on ableton 👌.
Awesome set. I do wish that Circuit synth was a bit more subtle sometimes. I have the OG and the Rhythm, I just love the interface but not crazy about the sounds
Great demo! I love the Novation sequencers they are so easy to use :) I hope they will continue to release new Circuits and Launchpad Pros with improved sequencers (more steps, and patterns)
It's not my kind of music, but I've seen a lot of tips and tricks. There aren't that many that show how to do it, with all the challenges and little mistakes. Thanks for that and I wish you all the best. What is a pity are the ads that kill the flow of experience. I must have had 10 of them, YT is crazy, it's getting more and more. I don't know if you can adjust that, a few less would be nice. Anyway, it's probably just me.
Can you please explain what do you mean at 11:50 by "and what's crazy is, because that start point doesn't get affected until the sound is triggered, I can just kind of play it" ? Is it that the vocal start point progressively changes by moving the slider ? Being that B sets it to value 52, moving the slider moves from value 1 to 52
Unreal Ricky 🔥I was trying a similar setup with the Tracks a SE-02 and an SP-404 that has the compressor on permanently. But there just isnt this level of control with the EXT INST turning off when moving in and out of modes. Seems like the octatrack would be a way better option.
Woah how did you quickly fix the velocity of the hats around 10:30 ? Looks like holding duplicate you can drag your finger across all the hits to copy a lower velocity hit?
Being a DJ originally, waaaay before i got into production, i wonder if it'd be less stressful to being able to pre-listen to stuff you are bringing in? So, im wondering whether a 4 channel DJ mixer would help to smooth it all out? For transitioning, I think that a live loop from the outgoing track is smoother than the forced key change. This is all just for discussion, I'm not criticising in the slightest. I love it when you are just getting crazy with it!
7:30 - Do you usually pick the vocal + spot like that on stage? Or is this just an example to demonstrate here? seems like a lot of menu dicing on the spot 😯. Thanks for showing the chef's secrets😄
Great stuff. That said, I’d drop the OctaTrack for a mc 707 or 404 as both would give you access to a huge library of sounds and you can trigger clips… and do real-time effects stuff to. It’s probably cause I’ve never fallen for the OctaTrack though. I do own several Elektron products and enjoy them though….
instead of switching the key of the bassline before you bring the new set of chords in, have you ever tried leaving it? it creates a lot of dissonance but that tension is so cool to dance to. it also mirrors how DJs work (or used to work before you could change the key of a track whenever you want) where theres that moment of harmonic tension before the new track's bassline is brought in. might be fun to experiment with
You make me want to take tracks out of the box again. Tracks is an improv machine. I gotta ask, do you use presets for synth 1&2, or do you design your own patches in components? Dope video btw, Ricky 🎛️🎚️⚡
Here’s a question someone may have run into with this setup. Rick is adjusting swing on CT which is what I want to do. But when I go to swing, Circuit says “syn” in red indicating it’s synced with OT, and you can’t adjust swing. Does this mean you’re manually matching the tempo between OT and Circuit or is there a way to send clock and transport from OT but still have swing control on Circuit?
awesome work like always, im always jotting notes down when you do these videos. i would suggest tho, it might sound more natural if you try changing the key of your sequences after the sample is in. like maybe bring the new sample in, take out all the other melodic elements and drums for tension, change the key of the sequences (while theyre muted to the crowd), and then when you bring everything back it'll be in key. it might be a smoother experience. and its ok to have the sample playing in a different key than the previous sequences together as long as theres not too much sustained melodic content and theyre not clashing too hard. if you think of it with djing, its okay to be mixing tracks that arent in the same key, but it often depends on the content of each track and how much/what kind of melody is present. but with your samples i think it'll be easier since youre not dealing with fully mixed and arranged tracks, and your two "decks" are basically a bass line and a sample
Lovely chill house. What are your thoughts on the UA Max? It seems like a great end-of-chain option for a DAWless setup. All of the promo material shows it being used with guitars. Have you had any issues with the line-level signal going into it?
11:14 - "couldn't have done that better than myself" - does it himself

I'm fairly new to electronic music and I just wanted to say this channel is rad. All the best, from the UK!
Thanks for the kind words GWildcore!
Hello and welcome, from now on, you will have
No money,cos you blew it on hardware lol.
No…keep it simple, get to know what you’ve got
And remember, there are lots of free plugins.🙏🏼
I love that you were dancing Ricky, don’t see enough producers or djs dancing anymore, looks like you had fun and I love that💯
top shelf - one of the best videos you've done
Agreed
This is what I live for... Ricky's improv sets 🙌
I've watched loads of live dawless improv set tutorials, this is easily one of the best, if not the best!
Analog Kitchen is highly recommended, guy really knows his stuff.
just wow, three elements and super fun set. inspiration!
I love when you create happy accidents! the level of surprise and happiness on your face... Its extremely contageous! much love Ricky
This video right here is what's up. Packed with real live workflow information. Thanks Ricky!
Ricky this is so baller. Shows how much you can do with simple patterns.
Right?! The balance of simple but playable is what in trying to find
That Avalon is a killer. Sounds like a Detroit Juno in the end
Really fantastic work here. Great vibes, great ideas, great music.
Love the live jam sessions. Really genuine how you show what is jammin and also are not afraid to show any mistakes that happens. Another 🔥 video
Nothing will bring a group of people together like the impending doom of having to velcro a favorite peice of gear...
HAHA
Sounding lush. Love it!
Yo! Thanks for watching Surco, you're a huge inspiration to get this rig up and running!
@@RickyTinezreally sounds great. Hope to catch you improv live sometime soon!
Hey !
I dont comment often but it's the second time i come back to this video.
Love the vibe, love the workflow.
Your videos are amazing.
Love and passion from France
So useful yet chill, thanks for sharing the prep process!
Nice! Great to get to see the thought process. Also, my ear wanted hear that bass line match that second set of chords (6:13)on the 3rd and 4th bar.
This is by far one of your best videos. Very inspirational and extremely useful for learning and getting some ideas of my own. Well done Ricky and thanks for the content!
Your videos always inspire me! Thanks for that!
you are the best! Ricky for president!
yes, please
The level of mastery of the instruments you display feels on a par with any other virtuoso - plus it's a dope track!
Man, I like your vibe so much. Thank you!
Bruh..... if the whole world could listen to this video we wouldn't have to worry about wars :) Simply awesome .... :)
fuck wars make house
@@lxxwj Agree 100% !!
Loving the live set breakdown, so much great info in there ❤
it's alarmingly paradoxical how a set like this can make one feel so utterly worthless and disheartened at his/her own progress, yet equally as determined and excited to keep pushing ahead to attain this level of mastery. Thank you Ricky. You never cease to amaze and inspire.
Great stuff! Simple and effective setup. You could do a video talking about your approach to vocal samples and how you organize them for this kind of improv sets.
Ricky always knocking it out of the park with those thumping gnarly house tracks. Love it
Ricky that second track is in my top 5 ive heard from you. crazy stuff
so so dope. Inspiring honestly. You have me wanting to design and build my own live set up like this. Looks mad fun. Look forward to the next. Awesome stuff yo
I think this might be your best video! More of these please ❤
Man keep up the good work🔥, i'd love to see more video like this, with you just jaming and talking about what you do 🔥🔥🔥
That was great, thank you for sharing 👍
Yooo, track 2 was so chill, I could listen to that for hours!
I wish I could be at the show not only to hear the set again which is great but also to watch Ricky be super excited and proud when those off-the-cuff moments happen better than he expected! 😆Good luck Ricky!
This is fire my brother, good vibes on a Sunday night. Ur a scientist with it, stay swaggy. ♊
Opening that hold on the sample is a neat trick. Should work fine on my blackbox will try later 🙂 thanks for the chill beats and the glance into your process 👍
Thanks for letting us peak over your shoulder while you prep. It is helpful to hear your thinking behind transitions, which are tricky for me.

The man knows his instruments
Hey cheers lovedit. Would love some more of these walking us through the start to performance aspects of a Dawless performance...for beginners....
oof the dark reverb gets me everytime. Wonderful sesh thankyou
That was sooooo nice!!!!👌 More of these kinda videos please! Beautiful
Nah. Wait a minute.
I can do this...
But i feel / FELT like i need to transition Alot more to hold the audience attention.
What youve shown me is ... HOW to be patient and let it ride.
This is inspiring
I listened to the entire 25min... Good Job
Ou Yes Ou Yes, this is your best content , jamming house with hardware you enter in the zone and sound much better than doing the same thing on ableton 👌.
Great jam Ricky, really interesting workflow 👊
always a pleasure man!
Ricky! The man, hope to catch you live one day :) youre inspiring me to start to learn to play live - one day I will!
Another classic video
Where is the outro!!!! You leave it on fire man 🔥🔥Saludos desde Alicante, España y gracias por el trabajo que haces!
This was brilliant to watch
Best set I’ve seen from you Ricky! Infectious energy and joy as usual! What is the stomp box in the left?
Ace! Thanks Ricky. Really enjoyed it. Cheers. Lee
all it takes for a proper sunday eve; thx Rx
Awesome set. I do wish that Circuit synth was a bit more subtle sometimes. I have the OG and the Rhythm, I just love the interface but not crazy about the sounds

Yes dude! This is such a helpful type of video! Love it.
Impresionante secuencia de deep house.

3:05 changing pattern settings live takes some courage! love your setup man.
hahaha! Right? its super tricky

Great job and it looked fun, too!
Thanks for this video, I learned a TON of new tricks! 🙏
Come to New York, man! Sounds like a great set!
Пушка, брат. Качает! Люблю твой контент)))

We need more of these man!!! ❤️
What a great jam! 🔥
Love it!!!
im really digging the octatrack!
Ricky do you teach how to make this kind of house music with elektron gear? I have the digi trinity and using the octa as my mixer.
Great stuff. That said, I’d drop the OctaTrack for a mc 707 or 404 as both would give you access to a huge library of sounds and you can trigger clips… and do real-time effects stuff to. It’s probably cause I’ve never fallen for the OctaTrack though. I do own several Elektron products and enjoy them though….

Dope video btw, Ricky
🎛️🎚️⚡
no queue output? i.e. where you hear some stuff only on headphones to find the right chords, notes etc?
Bro where do you do sets?!? I'd love love to pull up to one some day.
Smooth as silk 😊✌️
Here’s a question someone may have run into with this setup. Rick is adjusting swing on CT which is what I want to do.

Does this mean you’re manually matching the tempo between OT and Circuit or is there a way to send clock and transport from OT but still have swing control on Circuit?
i Love your videos Ricky! I am just curious about what role each of the interfaces/instruments you have play. If anybody would be kind to explain.
Just noticed Ricky did a complete setup breakdown some videos ago. Gotta love this man!

Wow
9:20 is full vibes
you should let that ride.
pulse width. the best width.
Whats the settings of UAFX Max that you used in the end?
pls do more of this!
Is there anything out there that would make for a decent alternative to the Bassline?
Lovely chill house. What are your thoughts on the UA Max? It seems like a great end-of-chain option for a DAWless setup. All of the promo material shows it being used with guitars. Have you had any issues with the line-level signal going into it?
+1 want to now too, really interested by that pedal and the eh platform, seems he adopted it ! already have the Ua delay, would pair well 😮
Good stuff! I need to get back to my microhouse.
Hi, could you review yamaha seqtrak if you have a chance?
Do you have multiple cams and record on them all to edit later, or do you have a tech who toggles through the cameras live while recording?
