It's stupid, that's what it is! But I love it too.

@brokenupbeat i spent about 3-4 years writing this in renoise

[@acialist]

And to think, I've been doing stuff like this _manually_

[@NedRush]

You still can. There is no correct way except your way.

[@therhetorician4836]

Acialist how do you add your effects... one at a time? I do it manually also, trying to find another way to add the effects like appregiator, bit crush etc etc without going clip by clip by clip lol

[@timnordberg7204]

record the midi outputs of every channel and get you a man who can do both

[@ThisIsNotASafeSpace]

yup. imma need a tutorial or midi file pls bc...

[@stefanosalerno7442]

Same !

[@tomiekk6255]

"Simpler reminds me of simpler times, when breakcore was not simpler" xD love this

[@KINZOisHERE]

I was actually looking for someone who uses the arpegiator for breakcore, and with this tutorial I realized how little I know Ableton, thank u sir. Respect

[@sethlace6636]

Ned: "Aren't you glad you came to watch this... on a monday." Me: "It is literally monday." and on that day, it truly was a monday.

[@STIENSKISELECTA]

and here i am watching on a Monday lol

[@colemanhamilton2955]

Monday here too!

[@turk-money]

These are without a doubt the best Ableton tutorials I've found on KZbin. Your methods are creative, well detailed, and simple enough for a newbie to learn. Furthermore, you really are a very engaging host. Your'e funny when you need to be, instructive when you need to be. You possess fantastic instincts and have a true mastery of this material. Keep up the awesome work & thank you.

I have never heard more touching wedding vows. And I agree.

[@ijazzmunki]

Agreed!

[@samdrone4125]

[@ShaneNewville]

These are fun to watch and im learning so much. The way it just cuts off at the end. Perfection

[@v--vcultgirl2174]

I genuinely love watching this process

[@p-tay5915]

Wow man....awesome. Just what I needed to make my breaks even more mental!!

[@judgementhorse]

This is an awesome video man, you've really given me a lot of different ways to look at chopping up samples!

[@MrOuija-rr8kq]

I’m happy you are doing what you’re doing

[@curtgavin7845]

This has shown me an awesome way to pump out some mangled drum loops, am on my fourth bounce and trawling through! Thank you kindly

[@IronPepito]

Wow... a brand new world in my sequencer ! Thanks a lot for the video, i believe i'm gonna stick with that for hours and hours

[@BoyBlanket]

just finished watching this and gawd dayum! as someone who has never seen any of your videos and just barely knows the fundamentals of ableton this video blows my mind because now i see what the daw is capable of! thank you for the inspiration!

[@samdrone4125]

right on time again ned. i love you

[@simon-fh1en]

tanto tiempo perdido tratando de hacer esto solo y este hombre me hizo todo el trabajo super expedito

[@thewolfgirlliberation]

i love that you left the sample sources visible at the top of Ableton . well done my dude

[@Diane-od6gs]

such a generative approach !! i love it !! thank you !!!!

[@atomaalatonal]

thats madness :D. could listen to it all day. on second thought...i listen to it all day

[@allanpage]

This was incredible.

[@MrNinefinger]

I am deffinitly going to try this! Thanks for this great tut, you gotta make more like this! You got an extra sub.!

[@xyxyndr]

This is brilliant!

[@Brandonvilches0721]

probably the best breakcore tutorial out for abelton.

[@f67739]

love this video ned been looking for a good venetian snares style breakcore sequencing tutorial

[@wildcatproductions637]

sounds wild love it never made a breakcoe beat going to open up ableton now great channel

[@rpcheesman]

"It's silly, but I love it". Brilliant description.

[@kuphead]

love this

[@manslaughterinc.9135]

I've been looking for a way to make breakcore using VCV and I think you've just given me my solution.

[@debmaster]

Thanks dude, it's perfect

[@petitfantome777]

lol the amount of information after six minutes... love it its time i learn about a few of these effects

[@2granular853]

Sick! You are genius! Thanks!

[@alexwalker9017]

I live for this

[@Pheekofc]

I can watch this multiple times, learn a thing or 2 and laugh hard with all the commentary :D I'm a fan for sure

[@FSwiftDJ]

Top quality Ned, the think break is kind like the amen luv it, but one of the best that was used in rave scene was Shadows j hip this house, used in Pennywise, What have you done, Six days by Jimmy j cru T (Kniteforce) list goes on, it just sits brilliantly under the amen like tribal fill break, your Ableton skills are next level Bruv!!!

[@sweetsweetmeat]

You had me laughing so hard almost immediately, what you created pretty much sounds like Chocolate Wheelchair era Venetian Snares.

[@neillvontally_]

wowwowowow thanks for sharing this

[@Littledaisypusher]

This was super cool

[@alejandrosandoval5207]

Geez this is so good

[@norochmusic]

i bloody love this, definitely going to have a go at it, put my ohmicide distortion on it will sound great!

[@Moneypizzle]

Very cool stuff!

[@VINCEdubstepdnb]

You deserve a lot more subscribers.

[@Ferrichrome]

[@bernadotte913]

[@mybiggrin]

Last min & a half had me laughing haha amazing. And fantastic mucking as always.

[@philippesarlet4407]

Thank you so much for this vidéo....

[@cxthxrsis3571]

This will come in handy next week for college

[@djtomoy]

Reminds me of that time I fell down the stairs carrying a large box of cutlery

[@jamesbrooks256]

You’re incredible

[@parapadirapa]

On the last 1.30m Ned got his speech into breakcore as well!

[@parapadirapa]

Big ups Ned super cool stuff

[@EpsteezyFoSheezy]

When you repitched the Alice Cooper break it got extremely Dev/Null for a second there. Digging how easily you can build algorithms to scrub through samples on Ableton.

[@jh1989oham]

excellente

[@pl33]

Yes, but can you dance to it?

[@CuriousPassenger]

How often do you dance to Venetian Snares?

[@pl33]

@@CuriousPassenger the real question is when do i not dance to Venetian snares

[@xxxnsfw]

i think its more of a shuttering on the floor

[@svenrawandreloaded]

@@pl33 Hoe scaring 101

[@cms3816]

with enough determination you can dance to anything

[@BoyBlanket]

you should do that thing where your mouse arrow is highlighted because there sooo much going on haha quality content though!

[@WesleyLutz3D]

@17:56 I forgot I was listening to a tutorial and thought I was listening to an actual drop

[@ANDYWOUNDSABRXS]

love your vids, Im the guy who wanted to steal your music an youy said just rip it, This vid is amazing, but man, i used the wrong beats and it sounds like shit. but you gave me the tools to tweak it. love it mate. cheers from Ballarat

[@Thom.1502]

I just thought to myself "Why on earth did I not think about using the arpeggiator for beat creation"? Cheers again for the Vid Ned.

[@timurfr8197]

love you

[@realityxdream]

when he starts talking about the velocity and how it effects the beat it literally sounds like rocket science

[@floriporiofficial]

this is genius

[@perforations6234]

I just understood like 10% of all this, guess I need to take a go with ableton ;) Take a listen at Igorr, I think what they do is a bit similar, that's what I want to reach also, but more controlled

[@johnnyspaceout9928]

Sick

Back of the net matey. Subbed!

[@aleixgimeno3442]

awesome :o

[@SuperBen421]

Ned I love you

[@DModeSounds]

THANKS for sharing!! good way for people that doesnt want to move to trackers, OT or others and stay into LIVE, trying step by step and everything fine until I use the midi velocity for trigger the instrument racks. I have random volumes on some trigs (or something is wrong hehe :).

[@brightonbackgammon7802]

Allo mate.. same problem here. Pls let us know what the solution is dude?

[@brightonbackgammon7802]

Double check Vol < Vel is set to 0 for all samples

[@lake11266]

this is science

[@grimezupt]

14:08 heavenly, i need to sample this bit

[@wax83]

This is so unveiling it's almost dissapointing. (Just kidding you're awesome.)

[@NedRush]

This is not how to make Breakcore, just a silly way to fly drum loops around.

[@wax83]

@@NedRush Thats exactly how one would make breakcore imo! XDD
