Beautiful, and, five years on, still oh so relevant! Thank you for sharing.

[@leesimz_]

This is how youtube should be , experimentation, see what happens.. Not prepped, primed and filmed. The user is here to see the full process , not the polished end article... Big up John.. Keep em coming like this so everyone can see the exact process.. Nothing works every single time like they make you believe on youtube, experiment , sample, fool around , have fun .

[@343labs]

Thanks, glad you liked it!

[@vihaanayaan2186]

i know Im pretty off topic but does anyone know of a good website to watch newly released tv shows online ?

[@Eternaldrumscapes]

This video makes me think about switching from FL studio to Ableton! Thanks for the great video

[@ChazSeamus28]

thank you.. max for live is amazing

[@SeattleDjs]

So glad I found this.

[@richarquis]

Is this the same John Selway who released some tracks with BT back in the mid 90's? Those tracks I bought on vinyl 22-23 years ago? If so, cheers dude! Those records were staples in my dj sets back when I had hair and could stay awake past midnight.

[@343labs]

Yes it is the same John Selway. We love his music too! :)

[@richarquis]

@@343labs Cool! Glad to see he's still active. Cheers.

[@melvinblackburn7444]

[@onderstroom]

Great workflow…much appreciate!

[@georgeluna6217]

Nice video thanks! Can you set the range of midi notes more precise so the random moves into a specific range?

[@ThomasUeber]

A great tutorial, thank you John. Now I want to try the Mono Sequencer with Sonic Charge Microtonic!! 🙌🏼

[@343labs]

Go for it!

[@skelhain]

Thanks for diving into this underrated inspiration source! May I ask how you would record the output of the Mono Sequencer to another midi track to pick cool patterns from?

[@edleroy7593]

You're so right ! Keep up.

[@343labs]

[@ashokflash]

[@jimifive3454]

Does it work w live 10as well as live 9 ?

[@jimbo2471]

Thank you so much! I'm so happy to found that video since I'm stucking now for like 3 weeks in this circle where I open ableton, make a quick and dirty 4/4 kick, make hats and after im loosing motivation because I don't rly know what to do and when I want to try something it doesn't come in the way I like it. I'm sure this will help me so much to get something nice done. Thaaaaanks!!!

[@343labs]

Should be in your max for live packs (creative tools pack)

[@solokalandadze5167]

Cannot download from the provided link in the description. Does the download still work?

[@343labs]

Yes it works. If not, I would get in contact with Ableton directly.

[@jonlewis3838]

Any third party plugins similar to this?

[@johnnyallenaah]

Where can I download the mono sequencer, can’t find it anywhere ?

[@lf653]

I've got the same problem, is mono sequencer still running? (11 suite)

[@addictedtocraic]

In the video John mentioned the M4L Essentials pack from the 4L site.

[@ThreeBeingOne]

Where is this device located? Have suite full.

[@343labs]

Should be in your max for live packs (creative tools pack)

[@fakshen1973]

Anything like a euclidean generator in Max? They can be pretty fun in modular.

[@richarquis]

Coldcut's "MidiVolve" Ableton pack has one. I'm a noob with it, so I can't speak for how it works yet (I'm still getting to grips with other functions before I start worrying about things like that) but it is in there. Coldcut themselves have put up some youtube tutorials/walkthroughs on the device. Here's the Euclidean generator clip. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3rXh3iQmcSFpdk

[@fredericpasco2863]

realy good way (4 me) to create , xperiment always , with kisses from Paris ,sunny today.....

[@neworldemancer]

So, is it mono?!!🤣🤣

[@neworldemancer]

Sure, kidding. John super entertaining!

[@MaestroDNB]

Don't use mono sequencer - it bugs out and doesn't save the patterns you made. Big waste of time and pain in the ass. Ableton shouldn't make broken plugins available for download
