My Ableton Live Touring Rig 2024 - DEEP DIVE

[@maniraissdana6334]

you didn't introduce your USB HUB boy there, It's like the heart of your rig and I would desperately need to know what it is!!! 😅😅

[@jaynerio]

I need to know this too!!

[@Saruri]

That motion pad on the Gaia 2 is lit, I'd love a go on that.🔥🔥I'd also love a deep-dive lesson on how to do all the program/patch changes in Ableton, that's so cool to use for live performances. 😍💜I like the idea of using the middle row of the midi twister for the in-ears!! Lots of nice tips in here, Rach, thankssss 💜

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

Cool yeh thanks Saruri so glad you like it 💜 xxx

[@thisisxonyx]

Honestly - I've been missing your videos!!! 😭😭😭

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

aww 🥰 xxx

[@TheAkashicRecordSchool]

Incredible tutorial and I have loads of insights! Absolute golden that you are sharing this so openly!

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

aw thanks so much xxx

[@AQAMARINA]

Rachel how do u manage to play daylight gigs on your Push 2? the other day got surprised i was not able to see any of my clips, even less possible to play instruments on it.

[@MrBonesawisready]

Does anybody know how the presets are programmed to change with each scene change?

RKC, you are simply amazing!!

[@torsten23]

Uh, I would love to see you live in Germany?!

[@НовыеЗвёзды-ш5э]

Thank you so much for the cool video! Tell me, do you control reverb and delay using the Akai controller, and where does the reverb effect itself come from? from the boss ve 500?

[@gertlungmaskin1210]

Buy a Fender to Mary Spender!

[@everydaymilk_]

I’m curious for a live looping set up like this, what are you sending to FOH? Is it just a stereo out from your audio interface or do you split it up at all so they can do some live mixing on individual instruments?

[@mastmusician]

In Rachel’s performance course she recommends splitting stereo mixes out to FOH, dependent on how many outputs your interface has

[@marcinpietrowski8775]

If this is a touring rig, isn't it a huge headache to connect everything back every time?

[@daddydanny5588]

Cant u do all that stuff using ableton only

[@beatbuildersstudio]

Love the video. Thanks for going behind the scenes.

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

thank YOU for sharing the love 💜xxx

[@jukesasaurusrex]

Thank you so much for sharing your live set , very informative ❤🙌

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

so glad you like it thank you xxx

[@DJDiskmachine]

Always amazed and inspired when you share your setup, really cool! 🤩

[@JustinThomasProducer]

Hi Rachel, When are you performing live in Miami? Im using The Fantom 7 as my master synth to control Ableton and my hardware synths, Hydrasynth , Minilogue XD , JD- Xi. Then the Electron Model Cycle and the Electribe 2 for more percussive texture . I also play my Shecter 4 String Bass thru the JD- Xi . Then the RC - 505 .My question to you is with my set up would you use Ableton for Audio loops or the RC 505? Then how do you isolate tracks to send to the RC 505 from Ableton to the Fantom to the 505 ? Im using the Fantom 7 as my Audio interface. I 'm a huge fan and think you are all that and more. XOXO Thank you 😊 😊

[@tommy.countach]

great video! thanks! as a fellow live looping performer, i am often facing the question how to get my equipment save for air travel. how do you approach that?

[@SanderDuijff]

Hi Rachel, ever thought about special drumtrack? Greetings from Holland,Sander drummer

[@marknhopgood]

I'm working on my live set. So your set up is inspirational. My artist name is Mairk and I usually perform in Folkestone or Cardiff every month.

[@JeremyGreysmark]

I had loads of driver issues with various interfaces, especially with Motu and sometimes ven Universal Audio. RME in my job delivers consistently the best results in terms of stability and quality of conversion. The driver software support is amazing across their entire range even of older devices. In cannot recommend them enough in a professional environment.

[@stuartjameswright]

I needed to hear this. I’ll stop beating myself up about not being able to create all my loops live now. ;-)

[@felipepinaud]

Hey RCK do you use dummy clips to trigger different sounds each scene with Akai LPD8? Could you enlight us please?

[@boygood]

Why you chose Push 2, not Push 3 for live performance?

[@wilkopiano]

Cause push3 is overpriced and ableton messed up not really adding any value cause when it comes down to it, a push3 standalone computer still never runs your 3rd party VSTs and who creates an entire set just using stock ableton plugins? No one! Either she returned the demo model, or had to sell a lot of stuff to finance the incredibly expensive new studio costs. To be honest you’d be better off with a smaller footprint apc64 if you are just triggering or a cheaper and smaller apcmini mk2

[@danblossom7885]

Very inspiring! Other than freeing up CPU why not use the effects built into Ableton on vocals as opposed to the Boss pedal? That's what we are considering at the moment. How to control all the effects in Ableton for vocals and then send to the PA without any latency or feedback problems. I'm completely sold on and inspired by all the effects that come with Ableton Live 12 Suite. The Boss pedal is also under consideration

[@mimidhof2179]

By looking your video I had a trading scam commercial at the opening... maybe not your choice of advertising.

[@rolandambience]

is it possible to buy youre course of ableton learning with ideal?

[@712Jefferson]

Just curious.... You literally did the promo demo for the Push 3. Why are you still using the 2?

[@roland_trescher]

Hey Rachel, what an amazing set up. Can you or anyone else here, explain briefly what the staircase mode approach excateley is and how you do it to move from song to song using the Push only. I did not get it right form your video. Thx for your support.

[@birdsiview6845]

You make it look easy, and that makes you brilliant! Just remembering everything you’ve set up regarding control changes in itself , it just shows how much time and dedication you have put into your set up. You would make the likes of Madonna jealous. And she should be, because you are more talented. Keep up the hard work, and keep your soul and hold onto it tight.

[@KozmykJ]

I got an LPD8 after seeing you using one, some years back. I modded the pads to Up the sensitivity. Useful little tools they are for sure.

[@denardimusic]

Excelente, muchas gracias por esta masterclase. Tus instrumentos y tus presentaciones son superprofesionales, felicidades, necesitas seguramente gente que te ayude con el equipo, mucho tiempo para armarlo y mucha energía para que todo salga bien. Yo estoy constantemente pensando como eleborar un live-show y también de que modo, muchos de tus consejos me han ayudado para ir dandole forma. Algún día me animaré a hacerlo, por lo pronto solo en el estudio. Lo que haces es muy musical y me encanta esa mixtura entre, maquinas, loops, música orgánica, canto! Completísima. Te sigo!

[@waterthroughyouropenhands]

4 years ago, your vids on the mc-707 helped convince me to buy one and now, I am looking at the Gaia 2 tbh

[@Michel-r6m]

The Gaia isn't an upgrade to your KingKorg imho.

[@Luap-ls3ix]

I just don’t think I could ever remember all the parts to even 2 songs, let alone an entire set. Super impressive workflow 👌🏼

[@BeCinema]

When a woman is fed up with trying to rely on others she ends up succeeding on her own. Just her and God.

[@ScottsSynthStuff]

Brilliant. Great overview.

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

thanks for the kind words xxx

[@adbmusicify]

when you fly to gigs, do you have a more condensed set up? or do you check a large fly case and do carry on?

[@progwaver]

interesting I thought your now on Push 3 hehe ? But still Push 2.. why ?

[@Charlie-Oooooo]

WOW Rachel.!!! You have built the dream rig setup for any 1st rate synth/keyboard/vocalist superstar! And from an outsider looking in, it seems you've also found the perfect balance between solo performance, live looping and... mixing in lush studio productions in the moment, as desired; All centered around Ableton Live and a suite of top rate tools that really deliver some super sweet sounds. I don't know what is more impressive - that you were able to edit it all down to a 20 min clip, or that my brain was able to understand 90 percent of it. 😄 Brilliant! Just Brilliant! And inspirational.!!! Thank you! 💯🤩❤️ 🤘😎🤘

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

aww thank you so chuffed you think that xxx

[@retromakiha]

Please start your next video with “Hey. Rachel K Collier HEUUR” otherwise nice informative vid.

[@FernandoDCDuarte]

Great share! It's impressive the amount of work creating a working setup like this is. Plus, it's always great to see a RKC video 😊

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

aw lush thanks for the love xxx

[@MrBonesawisready]

Does anybody know how the presets are programmed to change with each scene change?

[@jackmercer4244]

Nice to hear the word Rig. I hate the word Kit.

[@anthonystevens8683]

Another top video Rachel. It's one thing having the gift of sound that you clearly have but setting up a touring rig that does not require a complete re-home this is very impressive. A very well presented and produced video as always. While I can appreciate your talent I'm not even close to your abilities but I love to listen and learn. Many thanks for sharing.

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

aw thank you for your kind words so glad you like it 💜 xxx

[@AManCalledBiggles]

You need software to close your laptop lid and still use Ableton? My first port of call would be to check the laptop power settings for something along the lines of "choose what to do when I close the lid" and set to "nothing" so your laptop is still on just lid closed? Maybe I'm just too oldschool and that feature has been taken away now 🤣

[@AManCalledBiggles]

Oooooooh - It's an Apple product 🤣 no wonder you need to buy software to get it to do what you want 😂 for Windows OS see above 😜

[@JesseKalapa]

why push 2 not push 3?

[@MaxPatissier]

glad you are using the SE-02... very good machine. Thank you for your time...

[@siaseeds8950]

Why not push 3 tho?

[@flourescentinflux]

This is an amazing breakdown. Very enlightening and Informative. Thank you so much. Would likely try your course on live performance

[@jamesaita]

Great video, awesome setup! Super inspiring. Keep these ones coming - it’s very hard to figure out a good live rig! These videos are my faves. Thank you so much. (Also I took your live performance and production courses and loved them). More of these please! 🙏

[@d-ditto9900]

That was a really good insight into your set up. I've been trying to figure out how I want to set my gear up to work in a live enviroment. It may mean looking into a couple more bits of hardware, but I probably need to get writing some new material especially as I'm going to be totally changing my music genre. 👍🏻😁

[@researchintospeed]

Great rig run down! Can we go a step further and see a run through of the set up and pack down including cases/bags etc.?

[@MrBonesawisready]

Does anybody know how the presets are programmed to change with each scene change?

So cool and compact ! - the sequences are into ableton or you just use into Push itself for it ?

[@RachelKCollierRKC]

Push is controlling everything that is in Ableton but I don't use the computer keyboard or mouse xxx

[@ACCOUNTANTB]

@RachelKCollierRKC hello. I heard Push 3 is kind of standalone and you can record / load all your clips / scenes and build a track on it with its own sequencer ..sort of...but anyways ..it's so cool you can create some great stuff as you do with so minimalistic set.. I have a mess DAWLESS herr and it's so hard to be melodic and good
