Tip for reference tracks: if you have something on your master track DO NOT route reference tracks to master. Switch the routing to your hardware output 1/2.

@EDMProd 3 года назад

Very good tip! That will make using references muchhh easier when mastering

@robertgarvansnyder4665 3 года назад

That’s super handy.

@haunted1994 Год назад

It's better if you set a premaster where you route all your tracks/groups/etc and all your plugins and then you can set some analizer plugins on master, to check reference and your track.

I thought I knew my shortcuts, but I learned so much from this. I didn’t know that you can create your own shortcuts 🤯

@Dream.logic_ Год назад

Such a great video man! amazing content and you are an amazing teacher, keep it up!!

@MultiMam12345 2 года назад

Great set of tips! Get keyboard maestro and map every shortcut that requires 2/3 keys to press to f1,f2,f3 etc. Or map them to any single key presses. Add karabiner to use your modifier keys ( command, shift, control, option ) as f13,f14,f15,f16 on press and release. Or mouse clicks.

@spectralcodec 2 года назад

Wow the people that make this software must be really smart!

@yophosy5419 3 года назад

Great stuff - two esp wonderful are the premix comparison stuff and the xfer to session view although I could have done with the latter for the two tracks I have just created !!!

lol my sigh of relief within the first 2 mins of this video. For some reason I never knew a 100% consistent way to switch those views.

@robertgarvansnyder4665 3 года назад

Great video! PS CMD+SHIFT+I = I/O (not Insert)

@PMZpablo Год назад

great1 Thanks! By the way, there is a tab to transient like protools and logic on live?

@tristant9686 2 года назад

Why do you recommend turning off the compressor's autogain?

@slowdivisionmusic 2 года назад

Well done again for the space at the start I will do it also. I am not sure it is a good thing to erase the locator it is important for coherent automation in the chorus and stuff. Thanks again

@seangill2413 3 года назад

Are you using an external preamp? Vocals are sounding smooth fam. great video as well obviously.

@EDMProd 3 года назад

Yep, thanks! I'm using the Dynamite DM1 preamp to boost the level of my Rode Procaster + the onyx pre in my Mackie 1640i mixer

@dulcegabrielameridanavarro7764 Год назад

Hi! Do you know shortcuts for audio editing in Ableton in order to compete with Protools workflow? 😊

@lwpweb 2 года назад

somesting strange: on my mac the cmd grid off is not working for the selection of the starting point. The starting point is always falling onto grid while pressing cmd and only the end point can be set arbitrarily.

@justinmandar7193 2 года назад

Hey EDM Prod! Whenever I try to clear the names of the files like you do in the mixing view with CMD + R then SPACE, it is simply not working for me. It seems I have to do it one by one. Anything I am doing wrong? Thanks for the great content! Justin

@EDMProd 2 года назад

Hey Justin, Renaming clips is very temperamental, and it has changed a bit with some of the recent updates too. If the clips are the exact same length and you have NO empty space on the timeline highlighted, you can rename them with CMD+R then Space. If you want to rename your whole arrangement to get rid of all the names I would recommend highlighting everything, going into the clip view (Shit Tab) then right clicking where it says the amount of clips (e.g. 22 Clips), clicking rename then hitting Space. This will remove all the clip names too

@chillydoog 2 года назад

nice cans brev. whots the make of those?

@EDMProd 2 года назад

They are beyerdynamic dt 880 pros!

@chrispysaid Год назад

Cmd+3 sets the grid to triplet, no need to turn off grid to get a triplet swing.

@pirds102010 Год назад

what is command Option on windows? STRG + ?

@smokypaige4857 3 года назад

ABLETON IS AWESOME. WOW! THANKS MAN. QUICK QUESTION....HOW DO YOU GET THE TITLE OF THE EFFECT TO SHOW. MY REVERB/DELAY RETURNS SHOW BUT THE INDIVIDUAL TRACKS DO NOT.

@atkimusic 3 года назад

They all show in the chain. Unless you have a separate track/send for the fx they won't show their title in the mixer but instead in the chain of that track you're applying processing on.

@chrispysaid Год назад

Here's a workflow tip: Cmd+F, type what you're looking for. Stop hunting and clicking through folder hierarchies.

@beatsprodbycm9455 3 года назад

i Hope this video helps cause damn i been struggling lol

@EDMProd 3 года назад

What have you been struggling on mostly? Just workflow stuff?

@beatsprodbycm9455 3 года назад

@@EDMProd Yeah that and also getting past the loop/intro stage and actually making something full. Sometimes just seems daunting.

@curtisnewton4045 2 года назад

hahaha ... Ich HAVE to write it in your comments: I was betting, which Short-Cut is your most used :D And I was so unbelievable sure, that it HAS to be "CMD + Z" :D :D :D I named Tracks after this :D Its by far the most shortcut I used in my Life :D And now I'm really concerned aber this :D hahaha. And I never used "SHFT- TAB" ever in my life. And I think I spent nearly the last 25 Years in front of Ableton (more or less :) ) Great, how music AND the creators are different. I love it!! Great. I had to stop watching this Video and had to finish my project. Everybody knows this :D It's like a Junkie. But I will come back, Luca.. I like your thoughts and how you explain things. See you soon.

@EDMProd 2 года назад

Thanks for the comment! CMD-Z is definitely up there too, but to be honest I dont even realise myself SHIFT TAB-ing nowadays so its hard to tell haha. Glad you enjoyed!!

@jawadkazmi8856 2 года назад

It's not to like it's a lot to absorb. What we mean by "a lot" 💫🤔🥴💥🤣 to much information for 10Xs viewing. But thank you because it is quite useful 😆😆 keep the tutorials coming but Please just do a 5 minute or so vid on setting up a digital piano for old school writers like us) so we can just record 🎹 and layer after we understand how to record it and play back and hear it lol
