In this video I demonstrate how you can use Ableton's included midi arpeggiator to create quick granular glitches in real-time. For more videos check my channel / ryandmca or check out my site at www.rm-sounds.com

At first I was like.. pretty average tutorial video.. but then when you demoed it with your track i was like (this guy is awesome). really nice tutorial and I like how you had the Picture in picture, very good for me and anyone else to understand how strong a controller can be. :)

No tutorials up on that topic, but there are lots of ways to go about it. Heavy use of reverb (with a long decay) is one way, time-stretching clips can be fun (try doubling a clip's length to the maximum of 999 and setting the warp mode to texture), granular sampling is good (max4live Granulator), etc. One technique I'm using a lot right now is 100% Feedback loops using Filter Delay. Set different delay times and drop them on return tracks to send audio to them and grab short bits to loop.

@JayCapistrano not sure if i understand your question, but if you are asking about how to create really short percussion noises you can use a sampler and adjust your volume envelope. set the sustain to 0 and decay to taste.

Hey buddy! I haven't listened to tons of Proem honestly, so I don't have much to say about his techniques, but I remember a while back on a forum or somewhere he was mentioning he really enjoys working with drum synth plugins like µtonic and Tattoo. Might be a good place to start. A quick listen sounds like he just synthesizes a lot of his drum sounds then runs them through a bunch of FX tweaking knobs in real-time. Delays, filters, bitcrushers, distortion, reverb, etc. Maybe some glitch FX too.

Try creating a midi clip that triggers every single note in a drum rack at the same time. Then drop an arpeggiator on set to Random mode, and turn the hold switch on. This will then trigger one random note at a time at the rate you determine in the arpeggiator. Instant vsnares. Not much groove though. You could also draw in notes for drum rack pads that don't have any samples to incorporate some random "rests" into your pattern.

@bogabeat the midi effects rack is not at all necessary. i just like using racks to visually isolate the parameters (macros) i want to work with. i use an akai apc40 and it automaps out to ableton's devices. using a rack makes it easier to map the correct parameters out to the eight knobs on the apc. i could have just used midi mapping and selected the parameters i wanted but like i said i just find this cleaner visually.

Try a free plug in called LIVEcut - it's a small but very powerful generator of glitch, pitch anomalies, stutter back n forth, bit crush and comb filter. the algorithms are a geeky copy of aphex, squarepusher, coldcut etc etc .

@bartoszodrzywolek9 жыл бұрын
Great work! I'm really into these glitchy beats. I am just starting with Ableton (and electronic generally), and I was wondering if you know if AKAI LPD 8 will be able to do the same function as your APC-40 - I mean, can I turn on and off the arpeggiator mapping the on/off to button to a pad on LPD-8? Or does the pads only work for drums, sounds, etc?
@quietusq4899 жыл бұрын
Yes, you could map it to almost any midi controller. You just need to map your AKAI LPD 8 to whatever set up you need. Pads are a binary on/off, so you will only be able to set the arpeggiator to then. Map the knobs to the gate / rates.
@AudikaLive9 жыл бұрын
If you've only got binary pads, and you want to "jam" with something like this using your controller, the other option (although a little unnecessary) is to set up multiple instances of the arpeggiator on one instrument track, with different sync rates (various milliseconds, or in terms of beat division). Map the on off of each to a different pad. Keep in mind that if you have something set to say 50ms, and then you activate another instance at the same time of say 20, it's going to do the second arpeggiation on top of the original 50, and it's going to get a little cluttered. There is always more than one way to skin a cat, even if you only have a spoon.

ya beat repeat is a good way to do this (set to "Insert") but unfortunately you are stuck with only time-synced repeats (1/4, 1/8, 1/16, etc.) but still very useful.

Ambience is easy thanks to granular synthesis, but those drum samples, I just can't get them to sound clicky/techy/glitchy or whatever the adjective is lol.
