For some reason I thought you couldn't automate sends in dummy clips, so I spent a couple hours automating every relevant parameter of a reverb to a dummy clip before realizing how ridiculous it was, lol. This cleared things up. I am infinitely grateful for your generosity with this knowledge!
Amazing!! you are the best. I realize that for to do it with vst it is necesary to build an instrument rack with all the vst and then to do almost the same. Excelent!! Thank you so much, my cpu and i say thank you to you hahaha.
SUPER VIDEO FOR ME WHO IS LEARNING ABLETON . ALREADY SUBSCRIBED BUT AM NOW GOING TO CHECK OUT YOUR OTHER VIDEOS. JUST GOT OUT OF HOSPITAL NEXT 10 DAYS ARE FOR STUDY
Wow this is great. I am working on setting up my hybrid eurorack/Ableton rig. Mostly I want to use Live for FX and clock, so I will be going hard at this, and using Launchpad and LaunchControl. Thanks!
Amazing! I'm wondering if with dummy clips it's possible to do something slightly different: for each song in my set I have a different instrument rack in a different track. Can I use dummy clips to arm only one track per scene?
What is the logic behind having monitor set to IN on the AMP track once we've set up the PEDALBOARD track? Logically I would think that would mean that we're hearing both the amp sound pre-effects *and* the post-effects sound-which presumably we wouldn't want. I find this whole routing section of the track/channel controls really non-obvious.
I recently bought Live 11 Standard and realize that I need the suite 11 to get the guitar rack:/ Do you see it worth investing in suite 11 just for this or do you have any other good suggestions for a alternative?:) Thank you for all the great content you make!
Hi! I suggest you to wait a bit for any discount from Ableton, or for upgrade to 12. I did my way from 10 Lite to 10 Standard and to 11 Suite, and saved ... I don't remember how much :-) Maybe up to $200, maybe less. Whoa! Today is the last day of 20% discount. So, check it. p.s. I really wanted to upgrade to Suite, becase I needed synths and effects that included in it. Check comarison matrix.
It's 100% worth getting suite. Max for live, operator and wavetable make it worth it just with those three things. Suite is the complete package, you won't need anything else for a long time.
Very nice. This will certainly help my workflow for trailing effects chains. A affiliate link to a midi pedal board you recommend would also be helpful.
Great video, solved lots of my problems. I was wondering if there is a way to quickly save the plugins parameters to the envelope and not having to draw it all the time ?
I always inspiring by your videos. Thanks! I use almost the same concept of pedal-board, but instead of dummy clips I use effects grouped and macro map [on/off + dry/wet]. So by turning respective knob on the Push2 from zero I triggering ON the effect and control the dry/wet as well. Separating the AMP chain to other track and route it to pedal board track, great approach. You are a genius, man. But I confused regarding to the flow, is it normal to have pedal-board after amp+cabinet chain?
I have been playing around with dummy clips for a live performance set I am planning. Right now they have been super useful to create a step sequencer to chop live audio. There is no limit on their usage
If the effect responds to Program Change messages you can, but most don't. I ended up using effect racks and automating the chain of multiple instances to keep things linear. The same with instruments.
What's the benefit of dummy clips over just mapping your midi controller to device on/off? I would think that would be simpler, as it would end up working the same as a standard pedalboard, allowing the freedom to choose any combination of effects at any time, rather than needing dummy clips for each individual combination of effects you might want.
Sorry, I don't understand how is that better than having 6 tracks and arming the one you want to play in with Auto monitor? Is the goal to have only one track?
