you did great! nice editing, kept it interesting to follow along to. Looking forward to watching more

Wow, thanks! I’m into templates recently, but now thinking about customizing tracks’ default states. Thanks for inspiration!

Subbed - crazy value in this video and you're fun to watch. Good stuff

Thank you so much! I'm very new to Ableton and music production as a whole. Maybe now I can actually have a workflow and not be as overwhelmed with features ❤

I was so disorganized in the past but now I realize how much time I've wasted just setting stuff up while trying to create... thanks so much, this template is "just enough" without being over the top intense!

Thank you buddy! I'm new to working in DAW's in general and this really helped me to get started on new projects!

Excellent template man. Thanks for helping artists out.

Prediction: This channel is going to blow up...seriously. EXCELLENT educational material!

What a lovely video man. Thank you

I did learn and i'm very thankful for this!! been toying with ableton throughout the years and found that my writers block always got stuck with me building the format of each song. I never thought to make a template. I'm about to just that RN. TY

I really liked this template man! Will give it a go to get some inspiration from! Thanks!

ill be switching to ableton and this is exactly what i was looking for. have similar setup in my old daw and want to familiarize with ableton as quickly as possible.

New Ableton user here, longtime Logic user that decided to make a switch, the differences between the two are huge workflow-wise. So this video was great for me just getting started, I feel like learning to ride a bike all over again! 🤣 Any chance of going deeper into building this template up with another video? Like you I also want to have things neat and organized, have a "base" setup as a good starting point for each session. I liked the way you set things up, the thoughts on how and why. Anywho, great video! thanks a bunch 👍👍👍👍👍

Very helpful - ty!

I also setup kick and snare side-chain compressors on my groups, with input signals already setup

And this whole time, I've been adding/configuring channels one at a time for every project!!! 🤬 Thanks!!! This new workflow is SICK!!!

Extremely useful - I find it necessary to have an EQ pulled up automatically. I actually prefer the stock Ableton EQ so I can instantly see the frequency response whenever I click on a track

Used correctly the Fabfilter Pro-L can do things the ableton limiter can not compete with. The ableton limiter is only good for convenience and saving CPU power.

Brilliant. Surprised you don’t have more subs and likes. Thanks 🙏

Just a note... You must have had one of the more latency inducing styles (Modern, Aggressive, Bus) activated on Pro-L2 and maybe even 2x oversampling and True Peak limiting as well. Turn on "Transparent, Punchy or All Around" and you get ~10ms, which to me is totally fine to play with.

@TheRaveBarn

Жыл бұрын

Correct, the modes you mentioned are indeed around the 10ms range, I find that amount totally usable for general production, but I prefer having the absolute lowest latency possible while tracking. I usually switch to Pro-L once all the tracking is done.

Agreed. It is boring to dial up the EQ and Comp settings every time for every track, which takes more time than making music.😅

Nah, thank YOU, this was awesome.

If you have trouble finding a low-latency limiter just go pick up a clipper (g-clip, free clip, etc) and use that instead. As long as you don't push into it too much it will work similarly with 0 latency

I LOVE THIS. But I did get lost on one part. I set up those Drum Midi tracks, but how do you use them? I created this entire pattern but I can't drag a sample onto the midi. Ideally I'd want to easily swap out different samples but keep the same drum pattern. Wouldn't it be much easier to just use a Drum Rack instead of 4 midi tracks? Is there an easy solution that I'm just not seeing? Thank you!

@TheRaveBarn

You should be able to draft the sample right into the midi track, in the device section. I prefer not to use all-in-one drum racks as they can limit mixing flexibility.

@@cglessman another great tip: put a drumrack into the midi channel, put your 128 favorite drum sounds (i.e. all your claps) on the cells, then put a midi pitch device before the drumrack. now you switch through your drum sounds by changing the pitch.

So that theres already a group made when you gotta add more tracks ;)

cool vid, but I rarely find myself using templates even if its one I created. I prefer making custom audio fx racks, midi fx racks, and instrument racks instead. Each and every Track you make is going to be unique in the way you mix it, automate it, etc etc. I find making racks instead makes things more versatile. I also prefer to bus everything or use sends (same thing almost) and the bus channels/send channels are almost always unique for each track. Its good to know why you're doing something and how to do something instead of using a "hamburger helper" preset or template or whatever etc etc. Learn what the fx do and your music making process will be much faster and much less wasted time fooling around. another reason I'm not into templates is this... most producers tend to focus on only arrangement view or only session view. Personally I use both arrangement and session when I make tracks. I like having my parts layed out in session view into scenes because it makes it much easier to make remixes/edits and its awesome to have scenes if you're performing live

You need to address studio one, cubase and logic users upfront at the intro to these videos instead of saying nothing. 😮

Don’t yu love workarounds…. Ore creative DAWs just use hide show rather than having to create “unused”….real oversight from ableton

@TheRaveBarn

7 ай бұрын

I agree, major oversight from Ableton. Maybe Ableton 12 will have this, I don't see it in the release notes, but it might get implemented before the official release 🤞

when he said set volume fader to -12 I stopped watching. use gain on channels instead keep the faders at 0 or close to zero because the more you are far away from zero it will be harder to control the levels. its not linear guys. this is just incorrect. just sayingl.

@TheRaveBarn

10 ай бұрын

Incorrect? I think not. There are no rules in music, just preferences. Pro Tools for instance, gives users +12dB of fader to work with, while ableton only goes to +6. By setting the faders to -12dB, I now have +18dB to work with, is it a more coarse control at -12db? Yes, but it hasn't caused me an issues personally and I like the extra room to boost, this isn't a mixing template where +-0.5dB makes a huge difference, it's a production template for fast translation of ideas. Having to navigate to the channel effects and adjust a gain pot because the fader is out of room (for instance when working with a very quiet VST preset) is much slower than just boosting on a fader. I typically don't mix in Ableton anyway, Pro Tools is my preferred DAW for that use and my attention to gain staging is much more detailed in my mix template. I've had over 150 million streams with the faders defaulted to -12dB as set out in this video, so it don't think it's an issue.
