How to make a DJ Set or a Mixtape on Ableton Live. Clean & Easy

[@AmineEdge]

If I can add something here, at 8:00 when you put a yellow market at bar 113 because the kick is not in phase of the 113th bar. first we need to know something important, what are those tracks ? Where are they coming from? if the tracks are recent, coming from beatport, or your own track, it means they have a fixed bpm. if they are old school track, they might have a tricky bpm with some numbers after the dot. and maybe will have to add many yellow marker. disco songs and vinyl rip needs many of those yellow marks. That being said, let say that your track here is a brand new track. as we can see on the left bottom corner, the original BPM of your track is 124.00 bpm, automatically detected by Ableton Live. The question is, why is a recent track, that has a fixed BPM, is not in phrase at bar 113 (and so on)... ? it's because Ableton detection is not 100% accurate. but then you gonna say: yeah but it's still written 124.00 so it should be fine right? And I will tell you: no my friend, the BPM that Ableton has detected for your track is 124.00 BPM but after those 2 zeroes there are some invisible numbers... so in fact, Ableton is a bit wrong... in fact, ableton has detected that your track is 124.000056456 etc.... numbers that we cant see, cant change. So here is a easier solution that you have to do to all your tracks: Step 1: Clic on the 1:1 yellow mark, the first and only yellow mark. (this is to be sure u have selected this point) (make sure there is no other yellow marks, ONLY ONE) Step 2: now that this point is selected, you are able to manually change the bpm of the track. Step 3: go at the end of the track and zoom in to see how messy it is. Step 4: Clic on "Seg. BPM" on the lest side of the wav form. Step 5: type your fixed BPM, in this case it's 124, clic enter, and see the magic happening of your wavform being in place perfectly. Do this to every track, have a quick verification with the metronome, and let's go Have a good mix :)

[@arthurian2928]

Trying to get to grips with Ableton and found this really clear and useful. Spent ages trying to work out how to fade out the base! Now I know how to.

[@magicandy2003]

Same with me, This video was very useful

[@nyingjea6837]

[@supremebeme]

exactly what i needed. straight to the point

[@robs1979]

Thank you....this has been the best video I have seen on making a DJ mix!!!!

[@willflo7486]

its not a dj mix....... it is how a producer would make a live set of his own produced music ableton is not dj software and using it to make a mix is lying about your ability to mix on actually dj hardware or software

[@robs1979]

@@willflo7486 Thansk for explaining negative Nancy! I’m well aware it’s not an actual DJ mix but it’s still a very good instructional video.

[@Ni234]

Bro can u do the part 2 series of the laptop for music production that u did 3months ago it was really helpfull ..

[@amarjeetpooni8021]

Dj Deep Bhamra, you are the best! Really appreciate your precious time and hard work!

[@drina_paris]

[@rayshumway247]

[@tjhenryclassicgarage90s]

[@bendavidmusic]

[@alexhardy6804]

Great vid, I am a longtime vinyl DJ finally jumping into making Ableton mixes and this was very helpful to get me off the ground

[@fredamn76]

I cannot find the fade option. I use Ableton live 11 trial. Any idea what i do wrong? 14:06

[@SwampWater]

Really helpful tutorial. Very clear, and delivered with a smile! Thank you :)

[@JeBuurman-d2y]

Thank you! I got a question: I'm making a long mix of 15+ songs. When listening back to the result, I hear good but sometimes not so good mixes. If I then make some adjustments at the beginning of the mix, I have to remix also the songs after it all over again. Is there any way to 'group' or to 'fix' these good mixes/songs together? Do you know the function to do that? Thank you in advance.

[@n.y.k.bacademy3340]

Well explained. Thanks Can you teach me how to use mic on rekorbox ddj 400 please

[@ThelittleMedusaonyoutube]

Awesome Deep. Thank you

[@lateralshiftmusic]

Very very helpful my dude :) I'm gonna try make a DJ mix now!

[@petrukkonstantin6427]

Thanks man, a really helpful tutorial without any unnecessary info, just all that really matters

[@kvs1031]

Hello do you plane to do any follow up videos on Rekordbox 6 ? and how to properly use the Creative plan ? backing up your Collection and playlist to DropBox ? Pioneer DJ doesn't give any information on how to reconnect the Creative plan to Dropbox. Thanks

[@DanMunteanuOne]

I've really enjoyed your video and I've learned how to use basic Ableton functions really fast. Ramp Up! Thanks, man, much appreciated.

[@demetriuscorbin6395]

Does abelton allow you to assign track numbers to a DJ continuous mix with out separating the mix into indivual tracks ? My goal is to be able to export it as one long continuous mix, but also be able to jump to different tracks.(like a WPL file)

[@JWapologist]

Hi Deep, can you please invite DJ Jasmeet to make another video with you. I loved watching the obs tutorial from last year

[@SanLoot]

Thank you for this great video

[@carlos_mann]

How can I adjust two tracks that are different tempos, without affecting the overall project tempo?

[@seanantony598]

Acting skills 👌... nice video macha...

[@djdeepbhamra]

Hahaha. 😅 Thanks !

[@NARXOVERHERE]

díd you try listen again the export file ?? does its volume low and the waveform is so thin ?? . i think it has something to do in the Mixing and headroom . idk but could you teach us how to make a high quality sound mixset ?? . plus , there are no videos that show the proper way to make a dj mixes

[@djchucky88]

Here in 2024. Thank you for the detailed walk through!!!

[@tavinco]

Great tutorial! I understand the principle but I can’t crossfade between traks … I’m using Ableton live 11 ( free trial) and I’m not sure why I can’t activate the “mixer” please advise if is part of any pack … Thanks

[@abrahamsagar2629]

Thanks for this video it's really worth for me who want to become a dj and creat my own style of music 🙏

[@prashrrix_1185]

[@rachidow2125]

you can automate the BPM on the masterchannel. It´s really good. I never change the main project BPM. Good turtorial!

[@ShayDeCastro]

I do the same - just so much easier that way and you can do it quickly at the end

[@luisanafelipe9051]

Finally thank you very much

[@Noshialimusic]

But agar koi live mein song change krne ko bole to kaise karenge brother ? While performance

[@chorze]

one of the songs i tried to mix starts sounding bad on the heavy parts (the wave is basicly a black bar) i tryed turning down gain and compressing but it doesnt help. i have no idea what the problem might be. the mp3 sounds fine when i play it outside of ableton. what could the problem be?

[@CarlosCortez-oy3mf]

Where you get your music.

[@hijiss4u]

Can you do a video of how to use ableton with rekordbox to do a live setup using DDJ 400 ? Also mention which are the extra control surfaces needed to do such a setup 😇😇😇

can u share me a dance Bollywood cub track set pls list of song pls

[@viralganatra17]

Awesome 👌

[@MIBLD]

Really Good Video Lesson, But I do have a question, how do you do this .. when you have one song ( Say at ) 120BPM and you are Mixing up to 130BPM but you are using 4 song step up to get there, I see here all the songs are the same BPM, but some DJ's Mix Scale up BPM, and Scale down BPM, how do you stair step / scale up and down, from like Tech to R&B to Pop to Hip-Hop, with a Range of BPM's, Can you take a moment and show / create a video to show us that? Not everyone Mix at 125-126, there are killer songs at lower and hight BPM's...

[@vivekkmusic]

Hey there, so here he was using warp mode so that every song he warps would be adjusted to the BPM of the Ableton Session, here it was 120, however, if you don't want to use the warp mode you could automate the BPM of the Session and adjust it accordingly. Hope this helps!

[@celinaquadros796]

Hi Deep can you recommend me a good laptop and a Bluetooth speaker.

[@varaddnaik]

Sir Will you plz make a video of How to get a Dj licence?

[@djgilevans]

You can use the tempo automation.

[@Hong-dh3wt]

Hey bro, can you please do a video for Logic Pro X?

[@sirmaurofficial9445]

What if two tracks from different BPM like one from 125 and the other one from 130 BPM

Please make a vdeo for fl studio 20 sir

[@sumitromandal6173]

Hello sir,hope you're doing fine.....thnx for the video.....can you make a video on EQ mixing in and mixing out of songs in a dj set? It would mean a lot

[@willflo7486]

Eq mixing in and out of songs would be done in actuall dj software like traktor or rekordbox this video is a lie from the start it is not how any self respecting dj would ever mix music and also takes more time than recording a regular dj mix would

[@sahilll7739]

Sir from where did u learn dj... ☺️

[@willflo7486]

right this is the biggest lie i have ever seen he is not making a dj mix

Bro iam from Andhrapradesh

[@kingkaddouri]

So what do I do if I'd like to change the BPM throughout the mix for specific tracks? It seems if I do this the whole mix is effected.

[@pulkitkohli1993]

You can unwarp the song you want the specific bpm for

This vdo is muting in between

[@Anmoljainn]

Lol what’s the point of “showing the skills”when you’re just hitting the play button ?

[@djdeepbhamra]

Guess what. All skills that you may have cannot be shown to a client via a video or an audio 😅 it's only to satisfy their demands. You may be the best performing artist on stage. But if on the day of the event the setting is not perfect for whatever reason. The event won't go as intended. . Also the dj set you send to the client is a depiction of what you can do. Like builders make a scaled model of a building before they actually build it. You show the investors or clients what you can do. And they give you the contract trusting you will deliver what you promise. similarly, The example dj set is like the 1st impression, it is only to set an expectation. It's your responsibility to kill it on the day of the performance and live up to the set expectation. :)

[@willflo7486]

@@djdeepbhamra its lying about your ability this isn't a dj mix

[@DistortedSoul2010]

17 mins in and still not finished mixing track one into track 2. Get some actual decks and a mixer folks and right now you’d be three or four songs into your mix.

[@Malcolm_Way]

In Reality it doesn't work if bpm is different of 2 tracks. Life sucks.

[@kumamtv]

Help me with a shout-out please... thanks

[@69_MK]

its not wrap its WARP 😂😂😂

[@erabhipandey92]

No bro its warp

[@willflo7486]

How can we take all the required skills of a real dj and throw them out the window ... I know trash the dj software and use ableton so those listening have no idea i don't actually know how to mix two tracks together............ If this was a video on how to arrange a live set of your own produced music I would be fine with this but it isn't, this lying about your ability to mix

[@JayRitter-q3g]

As a DJ, producer, and label owner, I'd 100% blacklist anyone who submitted a faked mix made this way.
