    bonus tip i found after using this device for a while: since we're using ableton's sampler for each individual layer, you can actually use up to 127 different samples inside of one sampler, essentially making it work in a round-robin fashion. if you select each individual sample and distribute them equally by velocity inside the zones panel, and then add a velocity device in the layer before the sampler, and set the "out low, out hi, and random" parameters to 64, each note will trigger a random velocity, which in turn should trigger a different sample. it gives you some more freedom to not stick to just one sample per layer :) thanks for the tips as always, and much love

    Dude. I've been doing sound design for almost five years and this technique has just directly resulted in some of, if not _the_ coolest stuff I've ever made. After a long period of feeling creatively inadequate, this is genuinely an "a-ha" moment. From the bottom of my heart, thank you guys for doing what you do. For me, these videos are the definition of inspirational.

    Very nice! Instead of using the chord device, you could use the note routing tab in the drum rack to make all the pads respond to the same input note. I use the note routing tab alot to route pads for old drum machines.

    Wow. Super cool rack with a plethora of uses. I ended up loading guitar samples into each slot and tuning them into a chord in sampler, lowered the pitch randomness to 0, then resampled them and added additional processing and chopped them into a progression. Super super crazy rack, and I really love this channel. Please keep them coming!!!

    very nice! i got excited to make my own impactor rack :D and the demo in the end was HEAVENLY. i use ableton as my main DAW, and your argument that its modularity sets it apart from other DAWs is fair, but for example Bitwig's Grid and FL Studio's Patcher are options that are just as modular. Probably someone can do similar things in Reaper, too, if they aren't afraid of coding and menu diving, lol :-D

I like really a lot the fact that it's not only a "to sound like this do that" but you have a sort of ethical philosophy around that is similar to mine. It looks like you like a lot producing, making sounds and try to spread some creativity to others because you want to see people doing cool material to listen about. Keep being yourself dude, even if you reach good numbers with this videos keep the line please! 👁👄👁

    Sorry if you answered this many times before; Do you mind sharing what effect(s) is/are on the voice-over? who's the star of that vocal chain, which emulates that sick extraterrestrial vibe? im a big fan of the feel of theses videos, it's so out of this world, but cohesively so. Even the types of sounds that come from the the processes you've shown, are blissful and jarring at the same time, just like the overall production . you've made straight up masterpieces with this series. So even if you don't respond..Thank You!

    hey !! awesomevideo !! just wondering, around the time i duplicated my initial layer in the drum rack, the variation almost completely stopped working. i dont know if this is something to do with a bug in expression control? but the sample all of a sudden defaults to -48 st and just alternates between -48 to -47, each other macro only modulating by tiny 0.1% fragments at most. this could be me not correctly following the tut or something else. if someone else has had this issue + found a resolution let me know !

    I just came across the same issue at 9:26. Expression Control has a bug. If you leave it expanded, then copy the chain to a new drum pad, it will work. But if you collapse Expression control and copy to a new drum pad, it will unmap everything in the "mapping" area from the very first instrument rack. Annoying... maybe there is an update?
