Arpeggio Drums in Live 12.1 Suite

Hello everyone. Stick an Arpeggiator on your Drum Rack and have a very nice time. You will need Live 12.1 Suite to play this set cause I dived into the Library for sounds, but if you don't have Suite then you can still do it with Live Intro. Hope you enjoy. Download attached.

Vsnares beats teaser

Hello everyone. I've been practising for what I think could be a funny "Venetian Snares Beats" in Ableton video. Here's something I did tonight as a starter that's suitably bonkers. Download attached. See you again soon.

Rach

Hello everyone. I'm very determined to do a Sergei Rachmaninoff beats in Ableton video but it'll take some time, but I think this Live set is a good starting point. Start the clip and listen to the flurries of notes. Hope you enjoy. See you soon.

Meld Beats

Hello everyone. Here is a drum rack idea using Meld for everything. I started on the drums but quickly tried adding bass and other bits. I thought it would make for a fun livestream next week to make beats using only Meld. Like this post of you think I should do that. Download attached. See you soon.

Auto Shift Everything Livestream Project and Samples

Hello everyone. Here is the project file and samples from the stream I just did. Now to hit Youtube studio and edit out that painful first hour. Lesson learnt. Don't render Blender files and livestream at the same time. See you again soon. Download link below.

SketchWithCameraTracking

Hello everyone. Funky patch in Max 9. These are concepts for future videos I'll do when Max 9 is bundled in Live 12, then I can put them in Max For Live and make them do other things, but if you have Max 9 you can check it out anyway. Download attached. See you soon.

NedBass!

Hello everyone. Here is a fun bass synth I am prototyping. It makes Booty Bass Grooves. Each aspect of the synth has its own sequencer. At the moment it can only do one scale which is C Dorian but I'll add more soon. For now its just a funky silly bassline generator. Download attached. See you soon.

Random Step Mapper

Hello everyone. Here is a Max For Live Modulator/Mapper idea I had. Its a sequencer where the sliders set the probability that a mapping change will happen, and when it does, its random, cause I love random. Here it's just moving the filter. I supposed its a chance based sample and hold sequencer that you can map. Hope that makes sense. Download attached. See you soon.

SketchSynth Max For Live Audio Visual Drawing Groovebox idea.

Hello everyone. I've been giving jit.gl.sketch a go in Jitter and made this cute little patch that draws and makes acid rave at the same time. Each kick draws a cube. Each snare draws a sphere, and each hi hat draws a circle. The bassline is drawing the wire frame. You can use the colour swatches to set the background and drawing colour. Download attached. Hope you enjoy. See you soon.

Stream rescheduled to Monday December 2nd

Hello everyone. I am moving tonight's livestream to next Monday. Gives you an extra weekend to send me in some more samples.

If you missed the post about samples you can read it again here. 2024-11-28 12:14:02 +0000 UTC View Post

Livestream this Thursday 8pm UK

Hello everyone. Join me for this Livestream on Thursday where I will Auto Shift everything in Live 12.1. See you then.

Samples please!

Hello everyone. I have an idea for a video and I’d like your help. I’d like you to send me samples of musical things, or anything really, preferably monophonic so nothing with chords, but instead something that has some texture and some melodious content. Maybe a sample of a flute, or a squeaky door, or something you made on your mono synth, maybe it’s just you whistling or singing someth...

How to Launch Clips in Ableton Live.

You might think you know, but maybe there's more to know. Download attached. See you again soon.

Exploring Max 9 Max Project

Hello everyone. Here is the Max 9 Project from the livestream I just did. If you have Max 9 you should be able to open it with all the assets in there. See you again soon.

Ned Rush Livestream Exploring Max 9

Tonight I will open Max 9 and look at the new things and make some music and visuals.

More Max 9 stuff

Hello everyone. Here is a jam I did today exploring more of the new Jitter FX in Max 9, if any of you have upgraded. I probably won't start diving deep until perhaps Max 9 is part of Live 12 Suite, maybe the odd video along the way, also there's a lot to explore. Anyway patch attached. See you later.

Build an XY Pad in Max For Live.

It's really rather easy. Download attached. See you again soon.

Geometry in Max 9

Hello everyone. If you have Max 9 you might enjoy this. Am trying out the new Geometry objects along with some old favourites. Looks odd. Download attached. See you again soon.

Ooops

Hello everyone. Tonight's bedtime jam is called Ooops. Download attached. See you soon.

Complex Performance Effects

Hello everyone. This is a great video. You're going to love it. Download attached.

Hope you enjoy.

Apple Pay poking it's Apple in.

Hello everyone. Soon Patreon and indeed creators on Patreon will have to start paying fees for members who join using Apple Pay via the Patreon iOS app. This will take me a while to wrap my head around, and won't impact current members (I believe). However I may have to take a route to have a second pricing for each tier for people who chose to join via the Patreon app with Apple Pay as their p...

Max 9 is out. Who is upgrading?

Auto Shift Orchestra

Hello everyone. Here's a big one take wonder from me, exploring Auto Shifter but using loads controlled by different midi bits to make some sort of mad orchestra. Download attached. Hope you enjoy.

Acoustic Snares with Collision

Hello everyone. Here is a video on how to make half decent sounding acoustic snares using Collision. Obviously a great sounding acoustic snare is a very nuanced thing, but these results are pretty close with enough tweakage. Download attached. See you again soon.

Livestream for your tracks.

Hello everyone. Here is the link for the livestream where we will listen to the tracks you made using the samples I posted in September. I've decided it would be best for me if you could send me your Soundcloud links as a DM on here, that way I'll know for certain where they have come from. See you then. I'm looking forward to it. WE WILL HAVE A NICE TIME

Move Livestream Sets

Hello everyone. Here are the sets I made on the Move in the livestream but here as one Ableton project. Turns out exporting them was harder than I thought despite them appearing in Ableton almost instantly, so I had to import them into a new set and do collect all and save, which was still pretty painless. Remember, if you don't have a Move you can still open these in Live. Download attached. S...

Sample September Track Livestream Reminder

Hello everyone. Don't forget the livestream this time next week where I will play tracks you've made using the samples I posted in September. Send me Soundcloud links in a DM here, or in a comment to this post, or send to me on Discord, and I will try and keep on top of all that. If you really can't use Soundcloud then send me a Google Drive link or Dropbox, or even just the file itself and I'l...

Ableton Move Livestream Tuesday 15th October 8pm UK

Hello everyone. I will livestream with the new Ableton Move next Tuesday ay 8pm UK. Hopefully by then I may have learnt enough about how it works to show off what it can do, and maybe what its not supposed to do, so do come and hit the chat with some questions. I'll try and cover as much as possible.
