[@andycordy5190]

Totally! I am rubbish at rhythmic ideas, they always come down to the same groove clichés! This is fabulous. I missed a few details so this is one to go back to again and again. Many thanks!

[@RyderGemini]

This video just shifted gears for me, gracias

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

Great to hear!

[@wonktootie]

Thank you! Couldn't figure out how to make the traps stop looping until you explained it!

[@brennanaman1]

A-maiiii-zing!! Thanks for another great clip!!

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

My pleasure!

[@Joey_Tai]

Hi LNA! That was really great described by you. I understood how the follow actions work now. Your arrangement with the strings and drums was very innovative. I liked it. Thank you. I left a subscription.

[@4m0nr3]

You've just opened an new dimension in my composing!!!!!😮 😮😮

[@martinsouthall]

Awesome. Been a Live user since 7, but I’d never really looked into follow actions. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

Happy this helped!

[@fahimdawer]

I learned a lot from you during the course of few years.....including this one setting different tempo for different scenes before whenever I apply "follow" the next scene was always following the tempo of the previous scene but now I realized that I was using follow for clip and not for scene....😅😅 God bless you and stay happy

[@DopeDoo]

Good content as always!

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

Glad you enjoyed it ☺️

Finally a video discussing Follow actions🙌

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

yay!

[@jazzsong8566]

You are amazing. Every video of yours is a source of inspiration for me 💚 Did you know that LNA is the abbreviation for Low Noise Amplifier? 😍

[@wandisilemela9867]

Love your work🇿🇦🔥🔥

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

Thank you 🙌

[@allancerf9038]

Very interesting. Outside of live performance where the 'chance' element is desirable, in 'fixed' finished compositions I think it's mainly another great way to 'stumble' into something that might work. I'd pit 'chance' vs. the gold standard which is, in arrangement view, using the loop braces and your ears to find selections that sound amazing.

[@djterhinator]

Something completely new & unexpected. Ableton never seizes to amaze me! 😱🤓

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

It’s awesome right?! 😃

[@succanproduce]

Cool

[@Songwriterbehindthecurtain]

[@davilicious75]

[@neoconnor4395]

[@Songwriterbehindthecurtain]

@@LNADoesAudioStuff did you checked out my question 🙋‍♂️ for music 🎼 yet?

[@glyndwr15]

I love Ableton

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

me too

[@JackOnSkates]

I didn't even notice how much easier follow actions have become after the update! I should try to utilize it more.

[@LNADoesAudioStuff]

Yess they are awesome! 😎

[@sargamstudio6816]

Is it possible to have the current waveform playing always in the display in the wafeform edit pan below?

[@erikm5753]

How is this done with different tracks with different midi clips? Do they have to be bounced down to audio first? Or do follow actions for the scene and only have one mini clip in that scene as I don’t see a way to stack mini clips in one track if they are different sounds, etc….?

[@Songwriterbehindthecurtain]

Does segue counts on a album 💿 and also on song structure aka song writing ✍️ process what happens when I skip ⏭ the track one time I skip sanctify and played deeper but then I hear 👂 the ending of the first track and then the beginning of the 2nd track but my cousin Stephanie boyfriend Danny Crooke said don’t skip ⏭ the track when it’s segue just play the whole entire track what’s your honest opinion about this LNA does audio stuff?

[@stefankarl4059]

I don't see numbers next to my Scenes in the Master, so I don't have a number to cleck to access the scene follow option.. any tips on how to get there? Would appreciate the help

[@stefankarl4059]

I'm using Live 10 Suite

[@Songwriterbehindthecurtain]

Does an album 💿 count having 6 or more songs aka that is above 6 tracks and also more than 30 minutes to count as a album 💿?
