Had to take it down for a minute! Will post the new link when it is up...

Back up now! Sorry about that...

Let me know what you think

very nice tut mate. thank you!! love to see you explaining everything you do and why. perhaps give us a small clip of a tune with the kick in use though? or maybe thats coming up in later videos.

keep at em!!

Nice logo you got there
Great vid man! Keep em coming!

Am having a bit of a YouTube problem.. Don't know if anybody can help

Yesterday I put some annotations on the video to tell people to subscribe to receive the samples I used in the video but they haven't appeared yet..

Does YouTube take aages to get them up or have I messed up some how? I clicked "Save" and "Publish" when I had made them.

I've never used that kick before mate.. Made just for the tutorial and I will be building a short song over the course of a few videos in the tutorial

Oh cheers man, some bloke knocked it up for me - He was pretty cool actually

not sure about the annottaions thing, mine pop up as soon as i click publish. keep the ableton tuts coming though cause they help me understand it more ((ableton)

Ps. Just give the annotation thing some time...If it doesn't pop-up within the next 2hrs, then try again! YouTube can be very weird at times

Cheers guys, I did it again and they have gone up now!

Yeah Rando, snare video will be up today or tomorrow - Be my first subscriber and they will be thrust your way!

When I get into the bass stuff, that's when I'll be mainly showing you some good Ableton specific tips and shortcuts

very nice tutorial, i actually work in very similar way

looking forward for the next one

Samples sent!

My second video is up now and a couple more already recording and edited

It is about snares - Have a watch!

Is that EQ on ableton additive? those boosts sounded really awkward at times; not slating your videos, I know nothing about Ableton so thought i'd ask!


Videos are well done (better than mine hah!) not too comfortable with your techniques but sure some people will be!

nice keep em going

I don't know man, I checked yours out and I was pretty impressed!

Yeah it is additive .. It's going to be a pretty aggressive sound once I get a bit further along it so I prefer additive EQ just because it adds bits of grit that you wouldn't normally get. Ya know.. Maybe not proper practice but I like the results!

After this I'll be doing more ambient type tutorials so everything will be subtractive for sure..

Fo' sure I dig it! Big ups man !

Let's see what we have here; a drum processing tutorial by a skilled producer on Ableton? Me gusta!

Perfect tutorial, mate. Appreciate this a lot

Subbed!

Very detailed tutorials, but they were straight to the point!

Very Good!

Thanks for the compliments and again am really glad they're going down well..

Hats video will be up maybe.. Monday or Tuesday. It is ready for upload now but don't want to post them TOOO often, haha.
