[@SoloSo]

Ryan .. you are the MAN!!! Comprehensive - easy to understand tutorial on slicing and dicing with Ableton!!!! Awesome job my man!!!

[@voicedrifter]

That's Live's Arrangement View. It can be accessed by hitting the TAB button or clicking the button located in the top right hand corner underneath the CPU meter.

[@PocketRizzlas]

best ableton tip ive received in ages. thanks man :)

[@dondoggywest]

thanks for the tutorials! you must be exited for the new slice to midi track options in live 9 aswell! :)

[@SunlightOfTheSpirit]

Hey man, excellent teaching skills. I have followed two of your tuts as I don't have Sampler yet. I noticed your warp settings default to warp off and re pitch. How can I set mine up to similar?

[@voicedrifter]

@bonedogist you using Live 8?

[@GibsonSpecialist]

how do i get ableton to be setup like that? where the audio is at the top where you inserted it

[@bonedogist]

i dont have "the slice to midi" option i have crop sample and manage sample file nothing in between??):

Me too man

I'm very new to abelton. Having an issue folioing this tutorial. I've opened a session at default (120) tempo. When I grab my very first break and drop it in to the arrange screen, the Global tempo changes. In my case it changes to 86.1 . I guess Live is changing to the tempo it thinks the break is at. But in this tutorial, the Global tempo never changes(from 138) after the break is dropped in. My question is was the tempo predetermined so that Live would match it perfectly?... Or can this be changed in preferences i.e. dropping in a sample does not change the Global tempo. Hope I'm being clear.... HELP!!!!!!!! thx

[@MellyBoiBeats]

I figured it out.

[@glassboxdorito]

can you remember how you did this? Having the same problem

[@MellyBoiBeats]

tom dawson I believe I went into preferences and turned off warp long samples automatically..... lemme check..

[@glassboxdorito]

did you figure out how to do this yet? thanks man

[@DECOY0000]

Melvin Henderson were you able to figure out how to make it work at any bpm?

[@guitaryoder1]

I have ableton 8 suite but I do NOT have a slice to MIDI track option. It doesn't matter where I click, it doesn't matter if I right click or left click. I do not have a Slice option.

[@AS-uq2po]

Me neither buy i have 10 lite

[@ppopp661]

Thanks for this....breakcore madness here i come!!!

[@prabh6620]

haha this is actually pretty good ;) good job on the explanation

[@voicedrifter]

On a Mac you hold down CMD while dragging to do both, I assume that's either CTRL or ALT on the PC.

[@kabirphillip8284]

i realize it is kinda off topic but do anyone know a good place to watch newly released tv shows online?

[@cristianotroy3675]

@Kabir Phillip i use Flixzone. You can find it by googling =)

[@josh410420]

Sublime's cover of Scarlet Begonias huh ;)

[@oosurf08oo]

YO!! When he says "I am transposed way up" and he is playing the upper squares in the matrix.. .HOW DO YOU CONTROL THAT!?!?!?

[@alexthedub]

Dude that's SO cool. I nearly jizzed in my pants when I saw that diagonal thing

[@jerze6000]

it doesnt show slice to midi track when i right click it

[@AS-uq2po]

Me too man

[@voicedrifter]

@CalmToronto sorry maybe should have specified in the video this is from my personal breaks collection. you gotta find your own ;)

[@stavsounds]

thanks!

[@smartjackasswisdom1467]

You sound like tai López :)

[@shizzyshawn412]

you can't right click on a mac!

[@yungchopsticks]

Shawn Manuel I hope you're joking

[@ea5e95]

Excellent video; even for a PC user, domo~

[@YoungNino2017]

i can get the midi to slice the way everyone says to... then it's all choppy in playback and worthless... id be better off cutting up the audio file.... what is going on?

[@ryanblaine9977]

might have to do with the warp settings you have on, i usually go with the "complex" setting

[@Tapepusher]

bummer..

[@voicedrifter]
