Hey man since you seem to know ableton pretty well, can you answer some novice questions I have, coming from FLstudio How do you move the loop and start markers in sampler at the same time? How do I move audio that is in Simpler/Sampler onto an audio track? How do I only record audio instead of arming two tracks and recording midi+audio? How do I record on input rather than recording via countdown?
I think a good daw must be one consuming the less possible time to an exercise of just recording some guitar and drum fills. Ableton becomes a headache for just doing that.
100% agree with you because of an experience during my recent playback show when the director wanted to practice the songs (with dancers) from certain specific points within the songs, which were *not* where I had made clips for session view, I wished I had prepared the show in Arrangement view instead
Hey bud, so I can drag my writen arrangement view songs to session, put them on a clip, they are for bars in arrangement, but when I put them on a clip, and now I know to click the clip twice and it brings up options to loop it, the bar is longer than 4 so there is a little dead space before it loops around. I have to shorten it manually, what am I missing? Ive used Ableton a couple years but need some back tracking since I mainly write in arrangement.
I 100% think that arrangement view will push you to finish songs. You build to the left (the finish line) vs building down (adding loops/layers). Making beats....session view is awesome. If you making full songs....give me arrangement view.
How would linear performance work with controllers as akai apc40.mk2, launchpad pro etc...is there a way to change the vertical to horizontal in these controllers? Psychologically would make more sense to me to have it horizontally
I don't suggest using grid based controllers in Arrangement View. Your only real option is custom MIDI assignments and alot of tape so you know what you're pressing. They're great in session view though!
Hi Will, I watched earnestly your videos about using your template to format my songs (done), and as individual ALS songs all work great! I couldn't figure out in your videos where to put MIDI tracks that have an AU plugin and I then play along with the tracks with MIDI controllers so I simply created 1 or 2 MIDI tracks inside the song group, assign a keyboard and it plays along great! But...Now, when I go to the set that combines your songs together, I made a 10 set list quickly, but as I played the MIDI controllers, ALL of the AU's in all of the songs played simultaneously, regardless what song was playing. Not desirable. What I'd like is that only the MIDI tracks in the actively playing group are activated for AU playback. Or, what am I missing?
Well, my workout is to extract the MIDI tracks from each song group that I'm using to play live parts on my controllers with, and each time just before a new song starts I have to mute the outgoing tracks and unmute the new ones. Typically either 1 or two. I'm sure that this isn't the right way, can I automate this process or improve it?
Will. God bless you. You’ve watched the whole of your Ableton series and managed to confidently adapt and build my own set. Can’t thank you enough brother. 🙌🏾
Ide lovvvvvvvve to use arrangement view - BUT - For example: In session view i’ll have a intro scene which has a loop at its completion, so when i’m ready to go into the verse i’ll then fire a scene which is a transition to the chorus scene ( in legato mode ) which contains a drum fill / smooth transition to the verse…works great. I can’t see a way to do that in Arrangement… Sure i can just go to chorus like you are doing in your videos - but with no fill or transition… Love to hear any ideas / work arounds if anyone has any. Having legato mode work in arrangement would be a game changer for me. 👍👍👍 *I’m firing all of this from the floor - computer is off stage fyi.
@@fromstudiotostage Are you using your mouse on stage to set up the loop start/end times as you go? Can only see a way to have one loop section set up at once in arrangement
@@fromstudiotostage Do you know a way to set multiple loop markers in arrangement view? For example, if I want to loop the intro to song 1 and loop the breakdown before the bridge in song 2, is there a way to set this without having to move the loop region on the fly?
@@youtube_user_number_one I either pre-program loops or use previous locator to trigger in real-time. Search the channel for loops and I've got a few videos showing how to setup multiple loops.

why are you constantly changing camera angles? it's info, not a stupid tv show! it makes it impossible for me to watch without being distracted. remake the video and i'll subscribe and give a thumbs up but this is a big thumbs down
jimmie999999999, please accept my dearest apologies for any inconvenience this video has caused you. I thought this was a stupid tv show, and clearly you've shown me the error of my ways. I hope you will accept my deepest and sincerest apology.

Fair point on linear performance vs live looping

Hey man
Do you have a video on how to use Ableton live with Push in a church setup?
I write in arrangement, I've dragged the tracks to clips in session but i can't get them to loop.......how?
How can set ableton live tracks view, start from left not from right in arrangement view..?
is there a way to move the track bar on the right side to the left side
(track bar= where your MIDI, AUDIO tracks are)

oh gosh....I know that feeling. I just wrapped a show that could not happen if it wasn't in arrangement view

The major limitation with arrangement view is you cannot loop MIDI clips in a live setting. Otherwise it is much better for a professional live set
i'd have to hear your context to know more but options-chase midi notes will probably solve what you're looking to do!
It’s not wrong! It’s a matter of preference.

I use chain selector when using virtual instruments

I do a similar thing, I’ll loop a section and when I’m done I disable the loop and move to the next section, or jump to another section.

@@NexusChurchBrisbane yes! Check out the channel for a few different videos walking through the process
How would I play one track after another on auto-pilot in arrangement view?
Example here: th-cam.com/video/wPJpaGpS54o/w-d-xo.html
check out all the tracks content on the channel. That's the native design of arrangement view, so they just flow into each other.
@@fromstudiotostage Yeah, I meant something else =) But got it working! Check: th-cam.com/video/63Umka6G06Y/w-d-xo.html
Too much talking about talking.
Thank you!
@@fromstudiotostage awesome channel tho 🤜
Ableton no video, no tempotrack no chordtrack no ARA . Cubase has it all.
Sounds like you’re happy with Cubase-I would keep using it!
Ableton does have video and tempo track just FYI
Ableton has terrible control layout in arrangement view . See Reaper , Cubase. The i/o , mute, solo fx much better.
I would suggest you use reaper and Cubase!
look at 20 people who use ableton and look at 20 people who use logic. Notice the differences.
Ableton people are happier and live longer-that's a scientific fact
I knew all this shit already so I wasn’t wrong
