    AFAIK best video on clip-based (audio AND midi) looping ! And this approach also really works for getting ideas into ableton quickly - wish I had seen this 10 years ago ...

    I swear the god I watched 3 full ableton live looping tutorial and I was thinking I'm too dumb for this shit until I saw yours. Explained what exactly I needed to know in 9 minutes and the others couldn't in 2+ hours of courses.
    Thanks!

      And i still didnt find a way to delete the last recorded clip via midi controller. Do you know a way? I only found a m4l device "zaps recording tools", but it s buggy for me.

      ​@@djGreenALERT how would you program a dummy clip that deletes the currently selected clip in the Track? Or that deletes the last recorded clip? Sorry, i dont understand :)

    This is what I've been looking for since the longest! I wanted to get into Ableton to do this and now that I've made the switch, I finally found it! I always wondered how I could loop like FKJ but with a keyboard instead of an APC. Thank you so much! Love, bro.

    I have been looking for this exact tutorial for such a long time. I’ve always had such a hard time trying to live loop with clips and I think you finally showed me the solution. Thank you so much for this video

  • @V4D2
    @V4D2 Před 4 lety +3

    i’ve lost count on how many times i have seen this video of yours.
    Very succinct..clear.. Hell, even the music piece u used is cool.
    thanks for this.
    i’m still struggling..with the timing to stop recording/looping, and also the bar quantization...but thank you, for this.
    this is a great way to get ideas recorded down..in multiple clips.
    i’m waiting on the next shipment of the DataLooper pedal to come out..So far it’s been the most comprehensive and useful pedal i’ve seen, for Ableton.
    The KMIs are great but i can’t choose between the 12step and the softstep..
    cheers from Portugal

    This is it. This is what I've been looking for...for I dare not say how long! Looping with multiple song sections and not just the same progression over and over. A\B'ing seems rare on hardware pedals but this is A to H oh Lordy!!!!

    Yes! I watched this video shortly after it was posted, but I didn't own Ableton yet. Just bought it over the holiday and searched and searched and searched for this video, but couldn't find it. CZcams randomly served it up to me after another video finished playing. Thank you, non-search algorithm! And thanks to you, Seed to Stage. This is one is going in my "favorites". Subscribed.

      I'm in my late 60's and loving the music making technology of today.
      I mess about with Midi keyboard guitar .... loops that I acquire loops that I make.
      I even tried singing on one track but I have a voice that well you can always have a listen.
      Best compliment I got was OMG you sound like a dying Dalik!

  • @FeralPyg
    @FeralPyg Před 6 lety +9

    Fantastic video. I’ve gone through it minute by minute to get it to work for me and my gear. An interesting option I’ve found is to select the option ‘record on new scene launch’ in the preferences. What this does is automatically start recording if you launch a new scene. So I midi mapped a foot controller button to ‘launch scene’. When I select (not launch) a new scene, when I press my ‘launch scene button’, an empty clip will start recording for the armed track. What this means is I only need to map 1 button to record rather than a button for every track launch - less tap dancing and more buttons left for engaging effects etc!!
    Early days yet so I’ll see how it works out.

    • @scrivmusic453

I would like to see the other one where you route your cue.

    I LOVE YOU! I'm using an APC40 and for the life of me couldn't figure out how to record audio clips with preset lengths when playing guitar or two handed keyboard parts outside of buying a push exclusively for that reason. This completely eliminates the need for that. Still blows my mind Ableton hasn't added that basic functionality.

    i was playing guitar earlier and was thinking, if only i had two loopers, then was searshing for multi track loopers, and finally it hit me in the face that i've been using ableton as my main recording interface but i never ever explored the clip side of it! The possibility are now endless in terms of looping crazy sounds and chords progression AND have the ability to all track and save it instead of grabbing the looper pedal and the always terrible software they have to transfer the tracks... oh man it's such a nightmare !!!
