[@nicolasnicolas3889]

I'm a newbie, I was using Reaper as it's brilliant but so many of the tutorials in certain genres were done in Ableton and so I downloaded the trial version last week and wow, it's so cool how it works, the way you can put patterns together and see the song and arrange it like Lego music, I hope that it changes my life in a similar way, I would like just to get one tune on a playlist, anything after that is just a bonus, thanks for you video I'll check out some more and have a great day! ;D

Just beginning with Ableton's and DAWs in general. I must shout it out: Ethan YOU ROCK!! Your videos are a breath of fresh air in a polluted landscape of tuts and traps. (tutorials and dead ends). Somehow you include an encyclopedia of information in each video, but it is not overwhelming to the senses. And the pace at which you fly encourages us to come up to speed by drafting behind your wings of expertise. Thank GOD I found you here. Much appreciated, dude!!

[@MarkBarlow]

Sometimes when meeting your heroes you walk away disappointed by their character, but this dude has been a hero to me and consistently astounds me by his character. Ethan produced my first record, "Soul Hymns" and he's an absolute wizard & so genuinely kind. I hope all y'all take his course, there's soooo much gold in it that'll improve your creative process forever. ILY ETHAN

[@bears1804]

YO, MARK! Huge fan here!!! You’ve deeply inspired me to begin producing the music (for Jesus OFC!) I’ve been singing in my head for years! How DOPE to come across the guy that produced music for you!

[@DippsBhamrah]

Your intro is exactly my life and career. Ableton Live made me so confident that I can be a full time musician and media entity that I quit my full time job 12 year ago. It not an overstatement to say that downloading and realising how I can/could/would use the program made me into the artist I never thought I’d be. Just wanted to share as your intro hit me in the feels 👍🏽

[@CompleteProducer]

wow that's incredible!

[@zenguy7711]

I'm just coming up to speed in Ableton (@76 years old), this is by far and away the best instructive video I've seen, every tip is useful for me! Now I'm off to begin sidechaining my hardware synths that are layered with audio clips. Thank you!

[@chrispoweer]

[@Etakit]

Lots of solid tips here! I'd highly recommend utilizing hotkeys, like cmd + A to select all (all of your effects for instance), cmd + F to find (for effects, instruments, etc.)

[@CompleteProducer]

absolutely!

[@Listentobentone]

Been using Live since 04. Good stuff here! My best tips- keep a folder of your favorite presets and instruments. Learn your hot keys. Both those things will increase the speed of your work flow dramatically.

[@MrPajmej]

I am new in Ableton after more than 10 years in Logic. Your channel is in my top 3 learning sources! Like your way of explaining things. Thanks!

[@meilstone]

Great tips, two more important topics to add: 1. Do proper gain staging at the beginning and when adding new audio tracks/clips 2. Save clips (.alc file) from session view (similar to saving fx chains), this saves all the clip settings and effects as well as the midi information

[@CompleteProducer]

Oh nice I didn't know about that second one. I also STILL don't know what gain staging is LOL but I'll have to do some research. I'm over here getting schooled.

[@meilstone]

@@CompleteProducer Gain staging just means adjusting the input levels on each track to be the same value (e.g. -12 or -6 dB peak) so you establish a common ground before touching the faders. In Ableton, you can use the stock utility plugin for that or you can adjust the gain of audio clips. If you play live synths, you can adjust the synth's volume knob as well. Just make sure all peaks are about the same value. Once all that is done, you start balancing track volumes using the faders. That way, each track has some headroom and fader adjustments become more predictable as their positions actually represent the mix. Ideally, you can then add effects that add gain (e.g. distortion plugins) and create buses, etc. without having to worry about clipping at any stage. All in all, it makes your mix sound as clean (i.e. transparent) as it can be.

[@Superanima7]

Sample offset in the envelope/ automation layer in the clip view. It is badass with beat warp you can literally manipulate the wave in time. Change an audio file like it’s MIDI, also if you name a section a tempo name followed by BPM it will change to that bpm automatically. I dig the video! Been using live since 4

[@cellojoe]

These are great tips. Thanks for the reminders and the instructions

[@Soldiernate]

Finally a clean simple description of that side chain compression....thanks Ethan!

[@DJPastaYaY]

Really great tips. I find sidechaining to be especially useful!

[@androssomusic]

Good tips bro! As an experienced producer, mixing is something every producer should be capable of. If you can't mix, then you are technically not a producer, just someone who arranges sound. To be a producer is to produce a finished product. That means being responsible for creative output, arrangement and mixing. Mastering should also be something producers should learn as it is a vital step to finishing a project. It's not mandatory, but it is beneficial considering the expense of mastering in the long run.

[@androssomusic]

And also, it is important to let producers, especially those in the beginner phase, know that they should be really careful with multi-band compressing as it can turn into a habit to just slap plugins like OTT on everything, expecting it to sound good. OTT is a powerful plugin, but really you should only use it if it's necessary (unless it is your artistic vision of course)

[@songwriter3085]

spend 3 months with FL studio and i feel that FL studio cant help me when i come to more advanced. Today, i change to Ableton, your channel helps me a lot

[@djphinesse]

I knew a lot of this but it was still great how you presented it! I’m really getting into send and returns instead of using insert effects and my production sounds so much more professional. Returns on my electro drums have given them life.

[@ambastious]

Instead of using delay and dialing everything in, you can also use abletons new "align delay", which is purposely made for this effect and save some clicks :)

[@bismodi]

After years of mixing videos - this one provides the best value to anyone

[@hpnascimento95]

The first tip is so silly, but so important at the same time. When I started, I also made the mistake of saving all my sessions in the same project folder, and it took me a while to understand how the hierarchy works within Ableton.

[@CompleteProducer]

Same, lol! I had a folder on my desktop with like 200 sessions in it.

[@CompleteProducer]

happy to hear that you got something out of the video! keep it up!

[@yoelwww]

Instead of using sends and returns for vocals in Ableton you can create an audio effect rack with a wet and dry chain so you can control the wet signal independently of the dry signal. The only disadvantage of this is the ability to share the same rack to many vocals which you can do if you group all the vocals and place the rack on the group.

[@CompleteProducer]

that's true! other people have been commenting the same thing and it's something i have yet to dive into but I'm curious about implementing into my workflow. thanks for the suggestion!

[@matthewhayes3969]

The free TAL reverb plugin has separate dry and wet sliders. Super easy to use

[@rickmassimo6192]

@@CompleteProducer Can't you put an audio effect rack on a return track? Also, I've found the other thing to look into tweaking on OTT is the Amount knob. Also also, thanks for making this!

[@thetylersherman]

Do this all the time if I want to pre-mix before I hit my master sends, especially with room reverb and subtle widening effects.

[@brettinabox5607]

I watched this and the intro to Ableton video. You are such a good teacher to explain what and why on everything. So nice when we understand more to customize going in.

[@deedubya1267]

Great video! I learned a couple things I will definitely implement. (Like I never collect and save haha) I would have liked to see one of the tips talk more about gain staging as that is another thing that will take beginner producers to the next level. After OTT you said you may need to turn the sound down, but I think a proper explanation for why this is important is really in order. ESPECIALLY if this is aimed at newer producers. Knowing if things are sounding better or just louder is the key to the mixes we have all been chasing! Much love everyone and go make some music! Have fun!

[@CompleteProducer]

I will definitely keep this in mind moving forward. I appreciate the feedback! I’m going to have more in depth videos in the future too, so stay tuned!

[@schqrr]

facts 🔥

[@leandrobremer-music]

just a quick side chaining tip: in order to get a more pleasant result, try ducking only the main frequencies instead of the full sound of an instrument e.g. if the kick hits its loudest at 60hz you duck 60hz on the bass guitar whenever the kick hits. That way the bass guitar still sounds loud but it opens "space" for the kick :)

[@ChannelTomsMusic]

[@jackthompson7977]

Tip #4: It can get a bit messy using lots of return tracks for parallel processing like reverb sends. The same parallel processing can be achieved with an Audio Effect rack with one chain as the dry signal and another chain with the effects. Audio effects/instrument racks are underused for how helpful the are.

[@CompleteProducer]

Yeah that’s a great tip!

[@teagancombest6049]

Racks are like my entire production style lol. I go to "this needs a rack" so fast. Its so nice to be able to do parallel processing on the same track. Some rack tips: Make 2/3 tracks with EQ3s, and seperate the bass and mids or highs in your sample so you can apply different effects to different frequencies, mono the bass, etc. Midi racks that share the same midi effects like an arpeggiator are very fun to play with, also utilize "zones" for randonmess and glitch effects or to create your own multi-instrument keyboard.

[@fullthrottlemowing]

Lots of good information. Taking some back to production immediately. I have so many notes on the wall of things to remember to do and now I have more.

OTT tip is worth watching the video! never could understand what the fuss was about with it. NOW I get it.

[@aerov2484]

Yeah you don't know how to use OTT...

[@CompleteProducer]

🤡

[@aerov2484]

@@CompleteProducer OTT is a preset that uses multiband compression and expansion to achieve a constant level across the 3 bands that it divides the frequency spectrum into, helping you to raise the RMS level of a sound close to the maximum it can be. Those grey areas that you “like to click on” are the expansion ratio and threshold settings. You are not making the compressor “not hold on for too long” you are basically turning the expansion off by turning its ratio down to nothing. The expansion RAISES the level of the frequencies of the selected band when they go BELOW its threshold while the compressor LOWERS the level of the frequencies of the selected band when they go ABOVE its threshold. (Expansion is the left side brackets and compression is the right side brackets.) So the goal is to raise when it’s too low and lower when it’s too high, eventually resulting in the level of that band being stuck between two points they can’t move below or above. See that black space in between those “brackets” in the middle section ? That’s the sweet spot where the level of that band should be at to trigger both the expansion and the compression. You can move the threshold of both the expansion and compression, actually you HAVE to move the threshold of the expansion and compression in order for OTT to work how it was intended to work. When you drag the compression “brackets” to the right to “turn the mids and highs up”, you are raising the threshold of the compressor, resulting in less compression letting more of the mids and highs through. The change in gain that makes your mids and highs go up, is the output levels that have been raised (+10,3db for the highs and + 5,7db for the mids) to compensate for the volume you’re suppose to lose DUE to the compression. So what you’re basically doing here buddy, isn’t “chef’s kiss” but you’re kinda ruining the preset. Your main issue is that your level going INTO OTT is way above what it was designed to take. This is just basic gain staging really. You need the lower the level of the sound going into OTT so the mid band actually is BETWEEN the expansion and compression bracket and then adapt the threshold of the the expansion and compression of the two other bands. This is why it sounded “weird” when you put it on in the first place. So yeah, you’re compressing the mids somewhat because of how loud you’re running into it, but really I can promise you and everyone reading this, that the results you’re getting are a coincidence at best, and that you don’t know how to use OTT.

[@CompleteProducer]

that's too complex for my tiny brain hahah

[@mariooo88]

@@CompleteProducer It's very useful for example if you have a bass with important mids but you need to sidechain the low end to the kick. That way you don't lose the bass mids when the kick plays (if you're sidechaining on kick). But it can be used for many other things. In short words, when an instrument covers a wide range of frequencies but you need to get rid, in some particular beats, only of certain frequencies and leave the others up. Mid-side instead is simply removing or boosting certain frequencies only in the center or side of the panorama. These 2 are more or less useful depending on the musical genre. In some genres they are a must, in other genres they can be totally ignored.
