16 Bad Music Habits You NEED To Unlearn

[@miyaguin]

Listening to the loop fewer times is such a game changer! I learned this by watching Disclosure’s streams, Guy adds or tweaks a lot of stuff before playing the track again. And MOST IMPORTANTLY do not leave it playing while preset scrolling or experimenting with effects

[@WillHatton]

Absolutely! So much could be said for just limiting the effects of fatigue and keeping it fresh! Damn, I miss those Disclosure streams, we all learnt a tonne!

[@diegothepokemontrainer]

I need to implement some of these tips asap!

[@Interface3072]

Great list, thanks for sharing - I took plenty of notes!

[@WillHatton]

Happy to help!

[@mlamulinzimande]

How the hell did I not know the cntrl + shift + d shortcut 😂 you just changed my life

[@WillHatton]

I'm here for when you need me most, haha. Happy to help!

[@smackdammit4266]

And I've been looking for that one

[@lilwombat]

You don't have to select all the channels when you do it btw just the amount of time

[@WillHatton]

@@lilwombat what!? Okay... yep, I just learnt something too! Thank you!!

[@lilwombat]

@@WillHatton you're welcome. Ctrl+ i is useful too to just insert a blank space with that amount of time. Ctrl+shift+u is a favourite in the piano roll because I almost never want to perfectly quantise anything so I used to manually move notes. 60%-80% usually is enough

[@jeremiahpierson6553]

instantly saved this video. Thanks for putting this one together!

[@WillHatton]

Glad it helped!

[@isolineuk9329]

Ooo boy - some of these look great; been using Ableton for years and still learnt a few bits - thank you!

[@WillHatton]

My pleasure, there's still so much to learn even after all these years! That's what keeps it exciting!

[@ThomAdams]

Happy to help!

[@Paul-gp5om]

thanks bro. really helpful stuff. peace x

[@WillHatton]

Glad you dug it! My pleasure!

[@thecalver]

There’s defo a fine line between a useful template and something that restricts how you create - I found anyways

[@WillHatton]

Agreed! And, through limitations/restrictions you can also unlock creativity. It's all a fine line you should experiment with :)

[@RVDENT]

You should do tutorial vids on these up and coming genres dude. I saw you did a drift phonk one a while back. We got Brazilian Phonk, KrushKlub, Slide Funk; there's definitely a lack of people who know what they are doing making material on this stuff (I think I might know the reason why tho🤣🤣

[@WillHatton]

Hmm, maybe you’ve inspired an idea for a future episode or two… 👀

[@kimiuk]

oml how did i go 5 years not knowing cntrl shift d im embarrased of my self!

[@WillHatton]

Complete rundown of shortcuts in the description!

[@kimiuk]

@@WillHatton you absolute legend will

[@djbaghdaddy]

Man I need to get Ableton 12, still using 10 and it feels archaic compared to 12

[@aloha2713]

Can you dive deeper into these templates and what they should have?

[@Artek604]

BINGO here! :D

[@WillHatton]

Roll up, roll up!

[@YouNeedToKnowTV]

I don’t like the idea that i should be time efficient while creating music

[@WillHatton]

It's okay, these aren't the 16 commandments of music production, they're just little ideas. Take what you need and have fun :)

[@Timmywasgeht]

Im guilty

[@WillHatton]

Walk the plank...
