I was totally WRONG about Ableton Live 12 MIDI features... 😳
Between nonsense patterns, randomly generated notes you can actually get something worth using with just a couple of simple to replicate steps. It's not that you can rely fully on them, but after some tweaks those patterns can become an infinite source of ideas 💎

The vocal chop method is amazing, I tried it wth different vocals and you will not actually get bad results, you only need to tweak a lil bit and you have amazing vocal chop. Thank you for this tip!

@Zdrewe 4 месяца назад

Glad you tried and like it! And yes, exactly - it won’t give you bad results, just like any of those tricks. You only need to tweak them a bit 😎

That bassline at 1:38 "Who's gonna take you home...!" I found ditching these tools and just jamming on a P Bass or a synth pad for a while gave me more satisfactory results. Tidy up the midi afterwards etc ...this sort of feature seems more for when you're really stuck in a rut and at a deadline.

@muziknjaro 2 месяца назад

Hey man, great video! I wanted to ask, do you know how to get rid of clicks after slicing it to new midi track?

@Zdrewe 2 месяца назад

If you slice to new track it will create an instrument rack for you with pre assigned knobs. One of the first ones (as I remember correctly) is responsible for attack time of all slices. Just adjust it a little bit 😉

@muziknjaro 2 месяца назад

@@Zdrewe I tried that first, didn't work, but seems like it/s just that one drum break from splice(giving me the clicks). Anyways, thanks for the answer :)

@kosmikmusa 4 месяца назад

The real power would be if Transformation and Generative Tools can be midi mapped. That way we could create endless music variation with bush of the button.

@Zdrewe 4 месяца назад

You can’t map them but… you can play with parameters and send midi signal to another channel while recording. This gives the similar results

Can notes be chopped in 12?

@Zdrewe 4 месяца назад

Sure thing, hold E and chop them and add Cmd to it to chop to grid

@evanseesred 4 месяца назад

Great demonstration and well explained! That said, I’m still not fully convinced of the utility these updates bring. I get that those are more interesting bass lines than holding down whole notes for a bar, but they’re nothing I wouldn’t come up with just playing a few takes myself.

@Zdrewe 4 месяца назад

I agree, playing things on your own will always be superior to generating patterns. On the other hand generation can save your nerves during those less productive days or simply just give you some happy accidents to work with further

@Zdrewe 3 месяца назад

Well, those are nowhere near AI and imagination is what actually make those generated patterns come to life. Don’t get me wrong, I’m still gonna defend playing (or drawing) stuff in but those generative tools are just like a modern version of sequencers which were also used by the greatest

Not really, as the results are curated by the user. If they lack creativity, they will get poor results...but they would get poor results whether or not they used these generators.

@me3tthebeat 4 месяца назад

@@humfreeeagreed my friend. I made a very similar comment in another video. Shitty ideas, shitty results. There's still not a substitute for a good producer with original ideas that can do sound selection, arranging, mixing and mastering. Just salty weak producers who think they'll get left behind this soon into the AI race.

@vin3421 4 месяца назад

Actually will bring more originality. You can adjust what you come up with, and then you still have to make it all work in a complete track and make it good…

@Zdrewe 4 месяца назад

I think guys above said enough but I especially like what @humfreee said. Hard to talk about killing originality by using randomness generators and then adjusting the results. I heard songs on top charts which are less original but made by pro musicians 😉
