Ableton Shaper as Step Sequencer (Ableton Tutorial)

[@jparty]

Dude you're a wizard. This is bringing more and more 'modular/eurorack' feel to ableton!

[@audioreakt]

thanks mate, yeah indeed !

[@konzekuenze]

WOW... Never thought about this before. Great explanation and example as always. ♥️♥️♥️

[@audioreakt]

Cheers 🙏!

[@tarmekmusic]

my friend, I didn't even know I had this native plugin in ableton thank you very much, every video of yours is an inspiration to me!

[@audioreakt]

Haha there is so much stuff, especially with Ableton pack and max for live stuff

[@HHDbeats]

As soon as that bass sound came in my mate went 'Ah Ah Ahhhhhhh PUMP IT LOUUUDERR' hahaha aside from that.. great tutorial, thanks!

[@audioreakt]

haha nice one ! cheers

[@SamMcEwin]

Man! You’ve outdone yourself. Amazing tip. Thanks for sharing. I love that baseline too, sounded great with and without the modulation. Also 808 bonus points for making this video exactly 8:08 long. Roland should send you a t-shirt or something. :)

[@audioreakt]

Thanks man, on my KZbin it is showing 8:09 but wasn't planed haha

[@fernandoeidenschink8149]

I love your teaching Videos you are the beste of teaching Ableton ❤❤❤

[@audioreakt]

Thanks mate I apreciate !

WHAT IS THIS SORCERY! Dude! Every video of yours is so inspiring and so informative! Thanks for that!

[@audioreakt]

Haha I am glad you think so ! Cheers !

I'm new to this but your explanations make it easy to understand. Thank you

[@audioreakt]

Thanks man, glad you think so !

[@Pedrolitooo]

Gotta try that right now !

[@audioreakt]

Have fun ! 🤘

[@jean-marcdecanter7719]

WoW ! this is pure dope as always.. Thanks a lot for sharing with us ! You're a king of techno !

[@audioreakt]

Thanks mate, glad you liked it !

[@Chik0r0]

Thank you so much! I found Vital's LFO very useful to do this kind of thing but I didn't know Ableton had a stock plugin that did the same :) cheers!

[@audioreakt]

You're welcome ! Yeah couple of synth propose that indeed !

[@frank_mm]

So great as usual !!

[@audioreakt]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@peterandrasszikora636]

Great!:) Can we do the linear pitch modulation in a controlled way, keeping it in some scale?

[@audioreakt]

no I dont think

[@jonathanahn7979]

let go of the idea of scales in techno. that will open up much more sonic possibilities for you to play with :)

[@cncrtbttr9883]

that's awesome mate!

[@audioreakt]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@nativitymusic]

Very cool! Can't wait to implement this in my workflow/template =)

[@audioreakt]

Have fun !

[@nativitymusic]

@@audioreakt most def. just picked up your hypnotic techno template. going to use this later today!

[@audioreakt]

@@nativitymusic thanks for the support 🙏

[@live_for_dixit]

Again a genius move

[@audioreakt]

Thanks mate !

[@robertoalaniac5303]

Amazing stuff! The parameter sequencer I never saw ^^

[@audioreakt]

Same 😅

[@benjaminalfred4383]

Such good stuff every time!

[@audioreakt]

thanks mate, glad you think so !

[@jsonslim]

Thanks! I found this device thanks to you. But I also noticed some limitations in it. For example when you chsnge the speed knob like 1/2 and you have 8 beats in it, then the half of the beats are cut, so it modulates only with first 4 beats. And do you know similar devices but using faders instrad of curves, like in mono sequencer?

[@audioreakt]

yes I know the problem, but couldn't find other solution. then in term of sequencer you have Rozzer which is a free maxforlive sequencer

[@jsonslim]

@@audioreakt I also found max device called - StepOne which is perfect for automation like this :)

[@etiennetao]

This is great, thanks for sharing !

[@audioreakt]

My pleasure! Cheers !

[@oscarpol8583]

Thanks!

[@audioreakt]

You're welcome !

[@LatomSixtySix]

That last synth sounds amazing. Do you have a rack for that? 7:25

[@audioreakt]

not but its a simple patch with two sinewave. you can copy the patch from the video I think.

[@redbirdsaraceno]

Great demo

[@audioreakt]

Thank you 🙏

[@Underview]

That baseline sure is violent.

[@audioreakt]

Haha cheers !

[@besz99]

Thank you!

[@audioreakt]

You're welcome!

[@Ash-ls3kv]

What sound did you use as I can’t get a sound anything like this? It’s an amazing sound

[@audioreakt]

something like this ? : kzbin.infoYLr5T5lrvMs

[@ai-niinja]

Awesome!

[@audioreakt]

Thank you !

Can I have some private lessons from you ? Seriously you're a master

[@audioreakt]

I would love to but don't have the time for it right now...

[@javfstrackt8244]

Hello there. Thanks for the video! From where can i download the shaper ?

[@audioreakt]

It's by default in Ableton

[@javfstrackt8244]

@@audioreakt i get it, i dont know why it wasnt in the max for live folder

[@Nopermit]

I just bought you preset packs can I use them in my production or is it illegal to use them

[@audioreakt]

Hey, first thanks for the support ! Yes of course you can use them freely in your production !

[@UnderTaker-pz1kx]

Did you know if you double click a point it turns in to circle and acts like sustain ? It can be very confusing if you don't know and double click it by mistake. Strangely it is not mentioned in user manual.

[@audioreakt]

I didn't know, it is very strange and act very strangely indeed, thanks for letting me know

[@UnderTaker-pz1kx]

@@audioreakt it basically freezes modulation until end of the duty cycle. In other words, like a sustain.

@@audioreakt Do you live off music production? Could be an interesting Video, talking about how someone can make money off this hobby. Not that what we do, is about money, but still :)

[@ginotubbo1531]

since there's no vertical gridding it's not always useful as a sequencer

[@audioreakt]

in the case you want to do stuff out of the scale and use linear pitch it's perfect...the only setback is that drawing on this is a night mare

[@ginotubbo1531]

@@audioreakt I'm thinking about shaping devices in ios apps (e.g. drambo) in which you can draw forms in an insanely easy way and you have the choice of horizontal and vertical adjustable grids for quantising if you want... no idea of how difficult would be for developers to add similar features in LIVE 11, but it would be nice!!!
