Welcome. ✌️🌊
I’m Chris Sayburn, a “bedroom” music producer / beat maker and songwriter. I love to learn, create, share, encourage and have a proper good laugh in the process! Many of my released beats (available on all streaming platforms) were formed or finished on one of my production livestreams!
I’m a Christian (a follower of Jesus Christ) and everyone is welcome here as you are.
I’m always happy to share about my faith if you want to know more - but seriously, you are welcome here regardless. 👊
Finally, I’m NeuroDivergent (ND) and production is such a beautiful creative outlet and focus.
Peace.

Stunning🎉
Thanks so much! 🙏
ah man! glad this popped up on my KZread. so refreshing! Great energy man! thank you bro! I'm dyslexic too man! i struggle learning music big time. so this helps :)
ah big love bro and thanks for taking time to comment. Ha! Dyslexics united. Keep going! :)
Is there a video or somewhere to get your Ableton template ? 🤔
there isn’t but i’ll look back at this and recreate it when I can 👌
@@commonbeats you so should I peeped some the plugins on some the chains (UAD and bx stuff) would love to see how you implement those esp since I have a ton of those vsts
@@commonbeats also you should post more breakdowns and tutorials! Your stuff is killer and super easy to follow a long and grasp
@@silentcxbin thank you for the content ideas! will be on these when I can :)
@@silentcxbin Genuinely appreciate this, it's such an encouragement!
Such a great tutorial! This actually made me going from getting tired of listening to the same stuff over and over again without finishing a song, to actually complete a whole track!
absolutely love this!! thanks for sharing!
This was awesome! Really shows how good sound selection and basic volume balancing can really go a long way. Sending love ❤️
ah bro! thank you! 🧡
❤️❤️❤️
🧡🧡🧡
that is lush
thanks so much!
Amazing Vocal Mate <3
thanks so much bro!
Hey Mate :) Just came across your channel surfin on Organic House, and just dropping to say amazing job on your channel, going to explore a bit more... Quick question to you, what do you think of your headphones, they are the DT 900 Pro right, want to buy new headphones, but not sure yet what to get.... Keep it up and thanks :)
ah thanks so much for taking time to comment and thank you, really appreciate the kind words! the current ones i’m using are DT1990 pro. tbh I liked my 990 pros just as much and a lot less expensive so worth trying both if you can. 👌
OMG thank you so much! always found it crazy that I had to arm evrytime just to hear and it slows me down. I am use to FL studio
pleasure mate! proper did my head in too and glad it was of help!
Hello! Thank you for this video! I am also musician, trying to figure out my perfect setup for streaming Instagram live including Roland SP 404MK2. So my quiestion is - maybe you have tryied and know the answer 😁 - if I connect MK2 to my ipad to go live on Instagram, is any sreaming app like OBS studio ets needed? Or the MK 2 do all the job? Thanks! 🙏🏻☀️☺️
Ah nice! To be honest, I've never tried it but thinking aloud if you can choose your sound input in insta live the 404mk2 acts as an audio interface so that's all good that side! OBS gives you flexibility, you can customise "scenes" add overlays and alerts and handle all your audio and video in once place so if your home, I wonder if that's the best option, however if you're out and about, if you can tether your phone internet connection to your ipad, could be fun going live in random places etc.! if insta let's you choose video input too, you may be able to use your phone as a camera too!? @BJamminSinceBirth is worth checking out too, he uses 404mk2 and ipad lots so prob has more wisdom than me on it! Let us know how you get on! :)
Thanks a lot for fast reply! 🙏🏻💚✨
adding the looper in the 4.04 update was a stroke of genius by Roland.
totally agree!
Just started the vod and already know it’s gonna be a banger 👀 Been a while since I’ve tuned in but I always remember the supportive words you gave me when I did. I don’t upload on my channel anymore but i still make music most days; really trying to learn and improve. I also have some exciting news that I think you’d be pleased with as your kind words played a part. Is it ok if I connect with you on socials/Instagram so I can update you on what’s happening?
so great to hear from you! and thank you for sharing this! also yes please do, my insta is chrissayburn. love this.
This is incredible but seems to have stopped working for live 12, have you had any luck?
it’s working fine for me in live 12 so worth having another go :)
@@commonbeats No luck for me, tried multiple attempts and different locations. I'm familiar with batch / cfg / ini files and this is essentially the same thing so I don't believe it's user error. I found a work around though, I just key mapped the arm record button and track select button to the same button. I.e; I press one and it switches to track 1 and arms it.
so strange as literally installed live 12 on my new system and had to do the same from scratch (following my instructions) and is working fine 🤷♂️
@@commonbeats I have it working on 12.0.2 ! so your file is fine
thank you I appreciate you sharing 👊 hopefully they got it sorted
cool to see you again ✌️🔥
ah thank you bro! 🙏
hello:-)
hello! hope you’re good! :)
Very cool. I do the same thing on my roland mv8800. I want a sp 404 tho
happy days! don’t think i’ve seen a mv8800 - will have to check that out!
@commonbeats it's basically it's bigger older brother
nice!
@@commonbeats rza used it famously if i recall. it would let you hook up a monitor and was like a freaking entire daw almost. crazy level roland stuff.
@owizlo yoo that’s fire! cant believe ive not heard it of before! hope you are well bro
Cheers Commonbeats
cheers bro!
So… Kontakt Crashed my whole computer 😂😂 I continued to stream so continue to next one with me 😂
commonbeats, I liked this video because it's awesome!
ah thanks so much!! 🔥
Could you explain what the eq is doing and your choice of frequency setting on the bottom row?
hey George, 60hz is sub/lower end of kick so bringing more bass out, 1k for a bit of mid range clarity, 6k for upper mids boost. I've not gone for very high freq as more lofi vibe. Hope this helps :)
NICE
Ah thank you so much!
❤❤❤❤
🧡
Fire
thank you 🙏
thanks for this!
no problem. thanks for taking time to say thanks!
Love it! Great to hear from you, amigo. God bless! 🙌
ah thanks bro! 🙏🙌
when did you go over 1k subs! way to go mate!!!! (and nice track!)
yeah was pretty recent! thanks so much mate!
There he is! Praying you are well and that God is blessing. ✌🏾-Pilgrim
ah bro!! 🧡🙏
Hey dude, weird question, whats that ableton theme called?? I NEED IT.
all good bro, it's an adaptation of Fearless Beats template :) audiohacks.store/products/fearless-ableton-themes?pr_prod_strat=e5_desc&pr_rec_id=12f5db1a7&pr_rec_pid=7202717597880&pr_ref_pid=6786502983864&pr_seq=uniform
We definitely need the breakdown video. I’m using a Mac Mini m2. SP-404MKII as my audio interface with an XLR Mic plugged in to the SP. I’m trying to achieve this exact setup and use OBS to stream.
will add it to the list!
Hi, can you arm tracks by this way while you are recording? I'm at a loss at what to do when I'm recording. Sorry for my English. Regards.
Hi there, i’m not quite sure what you mean but you can hold down shift and click multiple arm buttons to record more than one track at the same time if that’s what you mean? please do get back to me if you meant something different and will try help :)
@@commonbeats Thank you for a lot!!!
@@charly_giordano no problem! enjoy :)
@@commonbeats didn't even know we can do that ..nice!
Done - thanks my friend ... 🙏
pleasure 👊
@@commonbeats Just bought a Push 1 to see how I like it
@@dark-californianice!
i would pay for these drums they sound awesome.
ah love this! i’ll see if i still have them and send them over
Awsome 🤩🤩
appreciate that - thank you! 👊
Please help me. Suddenly I'm trying to record vocals and the vocal tracks recording all the other instruments. Everything that's already there is mixing onto the vocal track and ruining the vocal. Why is this happening and how do I stop it?
that’s strange, i’m not sure in truth but a few things to check - make sure just vocal track is armed - make sure the audio track is set to ext in > your mic channel - it might just be a glitch so worth restarting computer / audio interface and trying again - it almost sounds like re-sampling but can’t think why it would happen sorry not to be of any real help!
Easy Peasy - Works like a charm - Most definitely should be a setting in Live - There's a lot of feature asks out there, so hopefully for others this will make the cut soon. Ideally, we could arm a track for monitoring when selecting, NOT recording. This is a fab work around though - Thanks a ton for sharing. I know there's a lot of work in making a simple vid like this.
ah thanks so much for sharing! yeah it’s mind boggling that things like this are not simple toggle options in app!
❤❤❤
my sis! 👊🧡
love your sounds and the vibes!
ah thanks so much!!
Worked for me. Thank you so much
pleasure! thanks for sharing
Hello commonbeats Would it be possible to share the plugins and settings for these plugins that you are using? I am not a sound guy so i am unsure of the settings i am using, but would appreciate if you can give me a guide or something i can start with.
hey there! i’m away at the mo but please do remind me again I’ll get back to you! :)
dude, i laughed with you 100% of the times with the pitch trouble 😂 btw, first time here and really enjoyed ur content. u got the same vibe as kevin, from lotus tunes.
😂😂 the struggle is real 😂 ah welcome bro, and thanks so much! Kevin is such a legend so I’ll take that! love learning from him.
this not organic
thanks for the feedback :)
Nice video man, just wondering why your video in mono?
it was an error on my part 😭 gutted as it sounded great in stereo 😂
@@commonbeats no worries, you will make more videos, next time in stereo 😀👍
@olegmusic881 Hope so - i have so much to learn!! thanks for the encouragement :)
Trying hard to catch your live vids but I'm always somewhere else.. =// Better luck next time I guess!
Ah that’s so nice to hear thank you!! one day i’ll actually get a set day and time to stream!
i couldnt catch what sound you used for your main chords ? sounds great! nice video!
i’m away at the mo but i’ve made a note to get back to you! 👍
Love LotusTunes. And love Chill House
yeah he’s a top lad and what a genre! loving it too!
I love how PC users get a free options but we are stuck having to buy software to accomplish the simplest thing in OBS
yeah I hear you.
Sometimes, when you're learning the basics, even a small issue like this can be very frustrating and demotivating, and suddenly finding someone coming up with a solution, makes me come to life again. A basic thing!!! Thanks a lot!
exactly this! i’m the same so I’m proper glad this helped!! 🙏
Focus on the cam looks nice and gooey. What do you use to put together the two cam feeds live? When I use OBS I lose quality, so I’m wondering what ppl with good looking streams use
hey man, the key difference is probably lighting i use a key light. other than i just use obs too and do video capture devices in Obs (I have 2x usb to hdmi cheap convertors) i then arrange the size of each camera feed in obs too. i don’t use any filters etc.. i think I use 6000 for streaming video bitrate in obs settings I have 2 sony cameras (a6300) and sigma lenses (30 and 16mm) hope this helps!
Legend, very helpful. Thanks a mil for the transparency! I've an SP in the mail, so you'll see me around :D@@commonbeats
@@Tapepusher yes lad! I need to get on mine again! Enjoy :)
@@commonbeats would you know if it responds well to program changes. Like if I have an Elektron Analog Four mk2 send program changes can I have the SP change patterns?
@@Tapepusher to be honest i’m not sure mate. people like malo beats, spvidz, accurate beats, BKDTR theory, Bjamminsincebirth use other analog gear with theirs so worth having a look at their channels 👊
