Made in Ableton Live: Tom Cosm on creating dynamic arrangements, bass sound design, and more

[@TomCosmNZ]

Thankyou Ableton for the opportunity to explode my brain to the public (once again!)

[@tristate0mind]

Shout out TOM cOSm! You deserve this throne overwhelmingly!! Keep on going next lvl. U have been such a huge inspiration M8

[@Vzdrjni]

great tune, mister!

[@georgecooke2271]

Shoutout for Tom from NZ, legendary producer - glad to see you on the main channel Tom!

[@semsmeb9745]

This is the same track as in your daily decibel videos, is it not?

[@DjFreefall]

Tom is a LEGEND. He has videos online that he's created and posted over 10 years ago utilizing production techniques and concepts that most people still haven't grasped yet. Makes me happy to see the Ableton Live team bringing him back on for more of these.

[@Mussi93]

@Polo Polo He's easy to understand, but definitely not basic. Every time I watch him, I think "Oh, didn't even think of using this plugin in this way.", which happens less with other producers. He's one of the most creative guys on KZbin and thinks outside the box. Just look at his Ableton sets.

[@Yolcizer]

@Polo Polo post some of your production videos please so we can all be enlightened.

[@armignac]

@Polo Polo Of course his tutorial productions are basics so people like you can understand them...

[@dryzeromusic]

This is solid gold stuff. Tom was always a great teacher.

[@strictlyguitar]

This is the best Ableton tutorial I've seen in a long time. It's so good to watch someone create a track and learn all the shortcuts they use. I've picked up so many great ideas from this. More please!

[@Austin-fr8fn]

Love the speed at which he does and explains things

[@andrewcrawford5121]

Yah him and mr bill are the goats for that fs

[@sammmartinn]

Nice profile

[@sonofcrooks]

Watching all of Toms Ableton courses when I was younger really kick started my creative journey.

[@rubbaclaymo2822]

love to see Tom in this professional tidy setup. been teaching me odd ableton things for years

[@ilyrican]

The sheer amount of knowledge in this video is priceless. Thank you for putting it out for free on youtube

[@BenFreeQ]

Tom is a proper talented guy, learned a lot from him in different scenarios

[@xsixsoundschool]

since 15 years ago learned a lot from Tom Cosm , thanks man

[@deafprof]

Me too!

[@hollunderboy]

Tom has been my goto master for more than 10 years. SO thankful for all that incredible input!

[@scottp8575]

Watching all of these Ableton workflows in the context of building a piece is really valuable for learning regardless of what kind of music you want to make. This really is a wonderful example of how quickly and seamlessly devices and effect chains can be hooked together and automated as well as how easily samples can be integrated and warped to fit in to your piece.

[@SonicJunkie]

Always the best tutorials from Tom. Thank you

[@doruksayar]

I've been watching Tom for years! Great stuff as always.

[@adambonini3129]

Tom is a treasure. Such a generous teacher.

[@Tony-oj8ti]

@tom cosm You've evolved so much. Used to make some shitty tracks in Ableton back in 2012 and learn from you. Appreciate you still being around and continuing to excel.

[@MusicotherapyOfficial]

I remember to watch one of your videos back in 2015 or so, and I’m glad to watch it over and over again and now thanks to your teaching I’m able to creat some good music for the beautiful people!

[@pkmehard9565]

Amazing, thanks for this! I think I'm gonna rewatch this in half speed 🙈

[@Sinsin20tre]

tomcosm you are a legend! my ableton mentor since my beginning

[@nullvids]

Tom has, and continues to teach me so much about production. Something to learn from him no matter how experienced you are.

[@markscott684]

[@vdub4216]

Great to see Tom again! My very first KZbin instructor!

[@karlklee9418]

I love how much he is motivating me to sit in front of Ableton and DO IT! Thank you!

[@armondhammerhead9278]

This is the kind of stuff that will sell Ableton Live....Great job

[@ralphcrouch461]

Tom, I’ve always dug your music, played it in many sets back in the day. Having just got into production myself, I found this video incredibly helpful, thanks for sharing your abilities and knowledge with us, friend! 🙏

[@RGM]

Thanks Tom....this is my first experience of seeing you in action and I have learned so much in just 40 mins. Keep up the great work.

[@schulenheimer]

Brillant as always. Thank you, Tom. Thanks Ableton.

[@strayburn9595]

Wowza - mastermind on the loose! That was amazing.

[@Fideito455]

Este es por lejos el video más simple y mejor explicado que encontré en unos 3 años de usar Ableton Live. Gracias Tom!

[@devillosaurus]

Thanks as always Tom. such a lovely teacher with so much to share

[@GDMartin]

bruh - i love the aesthetic and how professional Ableton's marketing strategy is visually. combine that with actual real quality teachings that are digestible ; its no comparison. more please

[@emmas.h386]

I learnt so much from this! Thanks for explaining every shortcut as you go 👌

[@lesmatheson6001]

I worked the whole thing like a Padewan, one step at a time. Very educational, thanks!

[@diverbrent]

so simple, so brilliant, thanks for your wicked work!

[@DUHRIZEO]

That ctrl U to snap the audio transients was something brand new to me. Thanks a ton.

[@Violant3]

wow what a beautiful scenery, I would have lots of inspiration to create music just looking at that window

[@neonlooiz]

This video is so incredibly helpful, thank you so much Tommmm

[@uk.leonardosants]

From Cosm. Thank you for your simple and efficient explanations.

[@magnoyotoff]

This is pure gold, thank you so much!

[@dreamaera]

Love your work as always, the spatial harmonics got me

[@ivanfare]

Amazing Bro , thanks , you can feel the flow !

[@udomatthiasdrums5322]

love your work over many years!!

[@umanoid1523]

Always a great tutorial from Tom Cosm. I learned something new about building a bass immediately. I often build my basses with a sub and and more of a mid range bass but I don’t roll off the low end on the midrange and group them, then glue them together by adding harmonics. I also dont do call and response in my bass line. Going to have to try this method now see if i get a cleaner bass sound.

[@dandawson1982]

Man I’ve come full circle. I basically learned Ableton from Tom wayyy back when he released his start to finish courses!

[@AlecStansfieldMusic]

Superb! I learned sooooo much from this - thanks!

[@TetherSound]

Tom you are the man thank you and thanks to Ableton

[@Lordxfx]

Just glad to see the old goat again!

[@CyrusSmith66]

Tom, this is much to fast, but so amazing. 🙂I am from Germany and it is difficult to understand, because your speed is incredible. Without the focus in music, I will learn in a 1/4 speed playback, what you are doing. Thank you so much

[@BOOMBABY2020]

blown away by this

[@panterro]

Great session! Pleasure to watch…

[@LK-zd2mc]

[@jllj6503]

Ohh i remember years ago when i bought Tom cosm's dvd Ableton learning series. Drove me nearly nuts trying to follow his 200mph teaching method. Hated it.

[@notsnob]

Love you Tom !!! 🙌

[@cilafr]

Thank you Tom for all those practical techniques. Actually I think this can apply to any genres. Watching at that kind of video I realize that everything is possible in Ableton Live and moreover you can do it in an easy way ! For sure I don't regret my licence purchase :D :D :D

[@nsjx]

Tom bangs out a full track while I eat my lentils. ...Ever so delectable. Thanks for the insights buddy. If beggars can be choosers, I'd love a couple more of these spread across multiple styles. Yeah, Ableton did a great job with many of the racks/packs available in 11

[@maggowitschwittbronsky8222]

[@jabengolledge552]

Fricken Epic Tom, always wanted to do your original course a decade ago.. also enjoyed seeing you perform around Bellingen back in the day. I’d love to see a tute like this but on old school Glitch Hop/ Funky Dubstep if you ever have time. Always really loved your work Brother! Thanks so much for doing what you do 🔉🎶🤩🙏🦋🍄

[@wolfgang4468]

Another proof that in reality you don't need ANY external plugin-as opposed to the dozens and dozens I use to buy just because they are on sale ...
