That "here we is.... Ableton." Was hilarious to me 😂

[@davedery06]

WOW FANCY!!! Its my 2nd time watching it to understand. Will do a consultation for sure

[@AbimelecMusicProduction]

This is all 🔥🔥🔥 Is there a link to find where to buy Leonard’s Freeze setup ? I looked on multitracks and through his IG and couldn’t find it!

[@zboy_hanna]

This is crazy informative!!

[@princetagg]

This is such a brilliant video. Thanks yank man.

[@OfficialYankNation]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@Habitation2023]

Warren this is content people should pay for!

[@OfficialYankNation]

💯✊🏽 just letting people see what they could possibly be doing as well. I have Consultations available as well.

Heyooooo chill!!!

[@stefanramlal547]

@@OfficialYankNationhow can we get in touch with you for consultations? Messaged on Instagram recently but got no response so just wondering.

[@fidelonuselogu8874]

Bro if you don’t want it don’t spoil it for others

[@jbeltranny]

Hey Warren. Great video as always!! So are you using an external Vocoder pedal or is the vocoder another plugin within Ableton?

[@OfficialYankNation]

External vocoder called Electro Harmonix V256

[@victoriyebutemeh]

Hi Warren, great stuff!!! I have a question though: Is it possible to have stacks done with instrument racks rather than omnisphere? I'm also looking forward to parts 2 and 3🎉

[@OfficialYankNation]

For sure 💯

[@AundreHamilton]

Warren! Hailings from Jamaica! Bro you don't know how much I appreciate you for this. When I watched the first one, I was like to my band, "Family, I got a new setup coming .😎" So they all waiting to see what’s next. Told them about your video too. I got a few questions though. Hopefully it’s not too much. 1. Did you set this up all on your own, both Ableton and TouchOSC? 2. I am assuming you created a custom layout for TouchOSC, right? I literally bought it after watching your first video. 3. ⁠Did any other videos accompany you with setting everything up? 4. ⁠Is Session view better than Arrangement view for this kind of setup? I mostly use Arrangement view. 5. ⁠Lastly, what view do you control the songs from? I currently control them in Arrangement View with midi or key mapping. But with so many things already map on your setup, do you still control the verse, chorus, repeat from session view? I just subscribed and am looking forward to your responses and the new video!

[@OfficialYankNation]

Aundre! Thanks for the love brother. I will try to answer all your questions in order lol. 1. I did set this up on my own. 2. I did create a custom template that i actually give away in my consultations. 3. Yes there were many videos on KZbin that helped me get started with setting this up but this has also been a 15+ year journey of learning Ableton and TouchOSC so i don’t remember every video i watched lol. 4. For what I’m doing, session View is the best way to running my setup for Keyboard Rig. 5. We have a separate computer that is running stems at my church. I only use my laptop to run my keys rig.

[@AundreHamilton]

​@@OfficialYankNationSo much value came from this response, you don't even know! 😅 Thank you Warren. As for consultation... I'd love to do one with you, but that price is hitting hard! Haha. Right now I can't afford it, but hopefully I can in the near future! Blessings bro!

[@Crow-df9qs]

This is awesome!!! I don’t think I quite caught how the empty instrument chains in the KEYS 1 MIDI channel were able to determine what MIDI got sent to each instrument channel though. Was there a way within each instrument channel (piano, pads, pulses) to choose MIDI from only certain chains that I missed? (I.e. Piano channel only receives MIDI when the Piano chain is selected etc.)

[@OfficialYankNation]

Yes that is correct. Sorry if i skipped that part. Once you’ve setup the master midi channel with the chain selector, you can choose on the instrument channel which chain under the “Keys 1 Midi” channel the instrument receives

[@Crow-df9qs]

Ah gotcha, I see now! Thank you for this kind of in-depth content! Truly game changing.

[@TerranceNock]

Serious question. How did you even figure all of this out? Like how did you know this was possible! I just want to latch! That’s all!!

[@antgeeze7129]

Great work man🎉

[@kingfridayx241]

finding the answers to my questions...

[@nelormblewusi1390]

11:15 bro i had a whole day with this video and i still dont know how you routed the chain selector to Keys,Pads and Synth . God of Abraham,helppppp,mercyyyyyy😭🙏. How did you do it?

[@simbaking6338]

Did you figure all this ouy by yourself?....Awesome tutorial...Do you ever try Gig Performer? I assume you used to use Mainstage....also whats your laptop specs if you dont mind sharing.

Great video Warren!!! what do we need to do to get to see what sounds you’re using? Which God do I need to pray to 😫😭!?

[@victoriyebutemeh]

Hi Warren. I've tried looking all over the internet for where I could buy the Freeze rack Leonard built, but each time, I'm lead back to his MultiTracks page, and it's just synths there. Can I please get the link so I could buy it?

[@OfficialYankNation]

Unfortunately, i don’t believe he sell it anymore. Sorry 😢

[@victoriyebutemeh]

@@OfficialYankNation yikes, well that sucks🫠. Thank you!!!!! I guess I'll have to try reverse engineering it from what I see in the video

[@elioncampbell5745]

What’s your computer specs and do you keep your sound plugins on the system or hard drive

[@OfficialYankNation]

I have a 2023 MacBook Pro now. M2 max 32 gigs of ram and 1TB ssd storage. In this video i was using a 2020 M1Pro 16 gigs of ram and 512 storage. I had to keep my sounds on a external hard drive using that one because it was overloading the computer

[@elioncampbell5745]

@@OfficialYankNation Thanks man! Can you recommend the hard drive you used?

@@elioncampbell5745 It’s a Samsung Extreme ssd 2TB

[@Chadman_aye]

Thank you for sharing this fam. Blessings

[@Brandon_Conquers]

So is each "stack" a separate instrument rack

[@OfficialYankNation]

No sir so i can create a multi patch in one instance of omnisphere and use Key Switches to select what sounds i want to use at a time.

[@Brandon_Conquers]

Ok after I watched John mike video on omnisphere I understood thanks for your insight

[@TerranceNock]

@@Brandon_Conquerssend me the video title

[@shekinahantoine777]

What plugin are you using for the vocoder?

[@OfficialYankNation]

I actually named them in the video

[@shekinahantoine777]

No I mean the actual vocoder itself, aside from the effects plugin bro

[@nelormblewusi1390]

Hi brother,could i ask what plugins do you use? I use kontakt synthage and nord piano strings maped out through external instruments. And how do you deal with the problem of volume,my audio engineers have pumped me put to the max but i still end up being burried. I line my sound out through scarlett 3rd gen

[@OfficialYankNation]

So we use a program called Dante at out church which is an audio over Ethernet network. Some time it can be how you’re EQ’d that can get you buried in a mix too. A lot of us don’t like a lot of “mid” tone in our piano sound but that’s actually where most of the voice of the sound lives

[@nelormblewusi1390]

@OfficialYankNation Dante....let me show this to my audio engineer,couldn't have said it better brother . Could I know what in ears you use?
