Glad you think so! Thanks for watching. ☺️

I'm glad you liked it and that reverb clicked for you! Yeah, I tried to pack a lot into one video so that everyone from beginners to advanced could get something from it, but that meant there was a lot to absorb... 😅

Glad you think so! Thanks for watching. :)

Thank you! I haven't seen your name pop up on the course, but maybe I'll see you there soon? :)

@@matttinklermusicThe Live 12 course through PML.

Oh right! Awesome! I hope you're enjoying it. 😁

I have a whole video on automation that you can find on my channel if you'd like! ☺️

@@matttinklermusic ok, I will give it a try

Sorry you found this boring! I tried to condense as much info on drum rack as possible into an easy to follow video, and because it's such a deep instrument it just has to get a bit geeky. How would you like to see a video like this structured? :)

@@matttinklermusic Sorry I lost my temper, and thank you for responding constructively. I am super frustrated with Ableton as an organization. I watch these videos because Live’s documentation sucks. Live 12 comes with a ton of preset drum racks, and none of them explain how they work. When you add the macro controls on the top of the instrument pads on top of an effects bus that has numerous effects in it, some of which are subject to automation, you end up with four or five levels of complexity. It would be extremely useful on the preset drum racks to simply explain what each of the elements does, and how to figure out what’s going on. Almost all of the most important controls are hidden all the time. Ableton doesn’t even tell you how to access the hidden controls. Drum rack in Live 12 is a mystery wrapped in a riddle inside an enigma.

@@johnqpublic4662 No need to apologise! I 100% agree with your frustration about the lack of documentation. The fact that the user manual hasn't been updated for Live 12 yet is frankly unacceptable. Drum rack can be pretty confusing, especially with the macros on presets! Think of macros as just controls that the people who have designed the preset think are useful to be able to tweak. Sometimes they can be quite complicated in terms. of how they're mapped though, so as you say diving into the rack can be very confusing, especially for beginners! Because of this I really recommend moving to making your own drum racks and away from the preset instruments, so that you can get comfortable with the structure of the instrument and learn how you can edit the presets. If you have any specific questions, I'm happy to try and help! :)

@@matttinklermusic Thanks for the advice! I tried making my own, but gave up quickly, probably because they weren’t as loud and punchy, because the presets use things like Drum Buss. Basically, you need to be able to reverse engineer the presets to know what to do with your own drum rack!

You're so welcome! Thanks for watching. :)

Putting it on the list! 😁

Thank you! Really glad you like it! 😁

Thank you! So glad you enjoy the videos. :)

You're welcome! Thanks for watching. :)

I can't believe I missed such an opportunity... 😂

Kendrick is hereby disappointed But I do think such jokes can be more than just A minor risk for the brand image

True, although it really was just A minor oversight

Thank you so much! I'm really super glad you found the video useful. It's my pleasure to help out. :) Also, glad to hear the disclaimer about the audio crackles didn't go unnoticed either. 😅

Thank you David! Really appreciate that. :) Hope you're going well with your learnings!

You're welcome! Thanks for watching! 😁

Thank you so much and thanks for watching! 😁

Thanks David! :)

Great question! It's not possible to do this on a track by track basis, and rearranging return tracks is only available in Live 12. That said, if you have Live 12, all you need to do is just click and drag the return tracks into the order you want much like you would any other track. :)

Thanks for the reply.

Thanks Chris! 😁

Thanks man, I appreciate it!! 😁

Thank you! Yeah a fresh start can always be a really good thing at the right time in life. 😁

Thank you!! Yeah it really hit home when I realised that people who were subscribed to me and following me found it hard to find me because of the name, so I'm really excited for this name change! Most things have already been switched over, but now it's just a matter of switching up graphics and links everywhere. I'll get there though! Excited to have you back in the Coffee Crew soon! 🥳

Thank you! Feel free to send me an email to [email protected] :)

I'm so glad to hear this! Thanks for watching! :D

You're very welcome! Thank you for watching. 😁

You're welcome! I always enjoy going through release notes. 😁

It's going to take some getting used to 😅😢

Precisely one of the reasons for the name change!! 😂

This is a fantastic question! The details are still to be ironed out but the idea is that Realms will be re-launched under the new artist project, giving me the opportunity to create a really cohesively branded project. I'm actually so excited! 😁 What will happen to the current material hasn't been decided quite yet though...

@@matttinklermusic Awesome. I'm signed up on Realms also..✌️❤️

Thank you! Yep, I went ahead and set up [email protected] Definitely much better than a Gmail address! 😁

There will be some teething issues, I'm sure, but hopefully it'll all work out for the better! 😁

In a sense! It really is more of a name change than an entire rebrand. Everything about the 'brand' is staying the same, it's really just the name that's changing! ☺️

@@matttinklermusic depends how you define rebranding! Your Live tutorials on KZbin are great. Good to hear you’re sticking with that!

For sure! Thanks so much for the kind words. Plenty more tutorials to come! ☺️

You're so welcome! Thanks for watching. 😁

Thank you for watching! Yep, that link would have died just within the last few days. I'm about to go through a bit of a name change and website update. I've updated the link now though if you want more info! 😁

Totally agree, it's such an arbitrary limitation.

I really don't know who made this decision. It's horrible.

I recorded this video in my old studio in Melbourne during winter. Australia's building standards are really poor, with very little insulation, and the only heating available in this room was a little electric heater (which is expensive to run). It was probably about 8-10 degrees Celsius in the room when I recorded this video. 😂

You're welcome! Thanks for watching. :)

@@matttinklermusic i will check your content , good to have a new abletoner to listen to

I agree, this would be a really useful feature. You can grab two or more clips on different tracks as long as they're in the same time region, but I agree this would be a fantastic addition.

@@matttinklermusic I wouldn't even call it a feature, every other daw and linear video app under the sun has had this since dinosaurs roamed the earth...even Mac Finder lets you grab non-contiguous items in a list. And it not only can't do it, it hacks and mangles other regions if you try. It's like having a gas car with no petrol cap and it just keeps sloshing out and Ableton just keep ignoring it while they're busy putting fairy lights on the roof. That and the inability to nudge regions by a preset amount ie tick, 1/8 bar etc...mind-blowing.

Yeah it is very weird that it doesn't exist in Live yet. You can definitely nudge clips though! Just select the clip, set your grid to the desired length and use the arrow keys to nudge. :)

It's the bandwidth for the filter! A higher value is a wider bandwidth, and a lower value is a narrower one. I typically just click and drag the filter on the graph though. :)

I haven't had performance issues on my M series Macs, so I'm really curious as to the issues you're experiencing?

@@matttinklermusic random CPU spikes, even in empty projects. Consider yourself lucky/fortunate. It’s not a “me” issue, as a search on Google for “M series Ableton problems” will show enough people with issue.

@@matttinklermusic it's common, at least with the M3 Macs. The CPU spikes randomly in Ableton where an empty project will use up to 80% or more of the CPU, spiking in waves/cycle. It's the way that Ableton is using the 2 cores. Doesn't happen all the time but enough to make one not want to use the program. Considering FL Studio, Studio One and even Logic don't do it says to me its a coding issue. I expected to have such grand experience when I got my M3 mac MBP. Definitely not the case with Ableton.

@@matttinklermusic There is major latency and phase problems in 12.0.5, its almost unusable since they did that update for me

@geebee44 I genuinely haven't had this happen, so that's really interesting to hear that so many people are having issues. Hopefully they get fixed! :)

11 Suite is perfectly capable and fantastic!! Definitely no need to upgrade if you're not missing the new features. :)
