[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Thanks so much for watching my video! Get some sweet dubstep beats rolling...!

[@riptidezim6151]

thank you!....the pack wont work ):

[@tomsitzman3125]

So did we

[@elishelly3969]

First off i just wanted to thank you for these videos, you really go in depth and help me understand how to start my music production journey! I have a question though, how come you started off in session view in this video as opposed to arrangement view?

[@jaylevy7642]

Been going to shows and festivals for 3 years and I can honestly say I’m at the point where listing only does such justice I feel like my creative mind has brought me to this point where it’s my turn to make the music I listen 2 everyday for all you dreamers and visionary’s out there fucking send it go for it and don’t look back it will take time patience and effort but if it brings you joy that’s all just part of the journey I hope someone readings this is the next headliner at lost lands for years to come keep pushing and keep dreaming from yours truly |scuZZy |

[@barzo22]

feel the same way

[@barzo22]

curious how you’ve progressed

[@jaylevy7642]

Would love to send you a mix

[@DUBLDENM]

Finally getting into production at 36 years old and wishing I'd started at 16. No regrets though, most fun I've eve had!

[@lordandroiddystopia2691]

Fuckkkkkk bro…. Yeah. I just ordered my midi earlier. Went to my first rave and then my first festival this year and probably been to 20 shows total since July now…. Seen hundreds of bands live before in all genres but this and this culture was something that I never knew I needed, and fell madly in love immediately. Seeing a few artists out there like Crankdat, celestial void, sippy, Sullivan king, Vastive behind the booth camera view in various posts on insta generates this INSANE feeling in me that I’ve never felt before. I’ve always felt music but instruments never spoke to me… but watching those people do their thing, I feel it throughout my body. It’s crazy that this is a feeling and it feels like the absolute greatest feeling in the world doing what they do. I have to learn to focus. I have to learn to give myself grace. I have to learn to not get so distracted to avoid what I know I want to learn and need to learn, but am too overwhelmed to do so. I have to do this for me and maybe this will be my calling to greatness. What better lifestyle than to impact crowds of people giving them the absolute best time of their lives that no one will forget? This just hits me hard Thank you for your comment friend. I hope you’re well out there

[@alexshabu4540]

At last, I found a video that actually taught me something great.

[@jakebricker697]

Love the video. For anyone wondering you have to hold click and press tab to move the the clips to arrangement view from the session view.

[@ellradio04]

13:47 to Change it into the Arrangement View press 'Tab', not 'Shift(he says)'. Just for the beginners who are watching this!! (This teacher is the best, I couldn't find a better one yet)

[@arlenerivera5570]

I've literally been stuck on that part too for the past hour lol

[@colbycascio2055]

wowww what last touch was perfect

[@Studio215official]

Finally! A dubstep drums tutorial that actually shows you how to make the pattern and semi-master it! Thanks!!!

[@jayc4019]

I just followed the whole video and was able to make the exact beat you made perfectly. And im using Live light 9. There were a few things you did that I had to find some work arounds with the older version but its still all possible. Thanks man

[@TRUE_GR1T]

hey I'm still using live 9 standard, were you able to "assign track color to clips" ? I don't see it as an option, wondering if it is only on newer versions.

[@montemary]

I am using your videos to teach my students how to use Ableton! I love your videos the most! I'll let you know their feedback, too. :)

[@thelessworld]

This kind of tutorial videos are pure gold, you can almost get from nowhere to anywhere by learning online free just by youtube videos... I can't say enough "thank you" to these vids :)

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

@@thelessworld Wicked! :D

[@marenol9587]

Yo this was actually a fantastic video, I learnt a lot more coming here than I originally expected

[@eskaytwo]

Great tutorial. I loved the early dubstep scene, great explanation of how it works. Also love the Celestial t-shirt!

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Awesome, thank you!

[@youssefromero156]

I just started learning Ableton and I think that out of many different youtubers I've watched, your videos are the easiest to understand and dopest! Keep up the great work

[@mantismuzik7493]

This worked awesome on ableton 11. I also didnt have your loops but was able to find some that were just as good from cymatics.

[@jeremiahwhitmore1693]

dude you've helped me so much with daws and just making music in general. Once I get more comfortable with the basics like using custom loops and mixing them into a nice arrangement with a drum beat I've made, I'm planning on trying to make my own sounds to use in songs. But I need to get more comfortable with the basics first. Thank you for taking your time and helping people out because you do an excellent job at it.

[@jordancarlin7754]

Im Working on a project for SAE Institute and it really helped

[@spawnmonkee8358]

thanks for video. still relevant for the new people just now starting!

[@narkyu3014]

The way you say p is just gorgeous.

[@haydenpostans9290]

Thank you so much this video helped a lot. I got a bit caught up when you were switching views 13:48 and you said shift and I was so confused but I knew that it was tab you were meant to say. This is a really good video and it’s the only one I could understand. Thankyou

[@lunhmusic8321]

if you are watching this while using Ableton 11. They changed the "commit" button for grooves to a small arrow above the "groove" part in the clip. If that makes any sense. The bottom line is they changed it....took me a solid minute to figure out how to do it lol. oh. very helpful video too!

[@DoctorDaulisTV]

I actually love how you explained some of the controls. Very nice and awesome for beginners!

[@slowriterband]

Just learned so much that I didn't know from this. Thank you!

[@bubabubu6088]

this is one killer beat.

I honestly can't believe I just made this. Thank you so much for your help, I can't wait to continue forward.

[@unixkid3000]

This was extremely helpful. So many other videos skip over basic info that newbie's like me can't move forward without. You rock.

[@ruhvelife2761]

Thanks for the tips, bro!

Great video, thanks so much!

[@tresvantd]

Dude this helped so much on my starting journey with making dubstep in Ableton It’s not many videos out there that’ll give you steps and thoroughly explain them. I’ll never forget this when I make it big...Thank you.

This was very specific, and that's exactly what I needed! I really appreciate this help.

[@coltonharmon9806]

I thought I had a decent beat going. Found this video, and now it actually sounds good! Is there a part 2 as to how to create the growls and such? (Like the audio sample you threw in just to see what it all sounds like)

Great video! Im guessing I need to know and understand music theory before I actually get into this! Finding a rhythm with snares, kicks, hats, and etc!

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

You don't need too much music theory knowledge, but the more you gain the better!

@Collective Intelligence for some reason it auto corrected to viewany i meant from session view to arrangment view whenever i click the the kick hold shift than click the highhat it works but it wont let me move it around again so far youve been awesome i subbed

awesome beats dude

Cool🤗

Very nice tutorial thanks a lot! you have a perfect tempo to explain :) Do you can maybe product a tutorial how to use the waveforms of osc. in the synths for the basslines with dirty drop sounds? :3 Thanks for future

[@zainsyed4078]

Great video and step-by-step guide to making a solid beat. Thanks!! I didn't read through all the comments, so forgive me if it's already been asked but, is it possible to create this entire drum setup (with kick, snare, hat1, hat2) using simpler for each sample instead of a drum rack? i just wondered if there was a difference or what do you think?

[@chris12333130]

I'm following everything you're doing and for some reason when I double click to put in a note for the Hat1 it duplicates in other parts of the grid messing everything up. Please advise

[@devon.spooner]

So much knowledge packed into one video! Thank you, I’ve watched 10-20 vids on the subject and have learned the most here 🙌🏽🙏🏽

[@peacefrog3]

Thanks for all of your tutorials so far! However you may or may not be aware but the Groove feature is not available for Ableton Live 10 Lite. Just worth noting for other beginners to the software like myself. Still, lots of helpful information in this video as usual!

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Hey peacefrog, thanks for that.

[@DanDaDannyz]

I was able to get the grooves to work somewhat. I just couldn't edit them. But what I did is when you click in the clip, you can still see a spot for groove. Just click the hot-swap button, which should pull up some various grooves. I'm using Live Lite 10 and was able to find the one he used in this tutorial, and then you can hit commit to have the groove applied. I just couldn't modify the velocity.

[@tbg6nb]

I can't get swing to randomize the velocity...quantize etc changes but velocity remains the same for all notes no matter what value for it I set. Any ideas (Ableton 10, Mac OS) ?

[@adamberinger3922]

Hi, thanks for the tutorial, it really helped me to get back into the groove again! By the way, I think the link to the sample pack isn't working anymore..? It says "no thanks, continue to checkout". The link is broken

[@thynumber1fan]

After clicking "free download", it prompts me to a message that says, "No thanks, continue to checkout". It appears as a hyperlink, but when I click on it, it is unresponsive. Is there another place to download the sample pack?

[@rabbsfootyrules]

[@suri-man]

Just a little tip for other users for viewing the videos. I always download the tutorials, with this site: onlinevideoconverter.com Than use pot player to view them ( download: potplayer.daum.net/ ) I have configured pot player that double clicking means skip backwards a few seconds. Which is very handy, if you quickly want to repeat a part which was going to fast. And I have activated view thumbnails while scrolling timeline. After using VLC for many years I switch recently to Pot Player, because of the thumbnails, something what's not possible with VLC. And I'm very happy I did, Pot Player is much more flexible than VLC and has a more modern interface.
