Re: APC40 In Production and Arrangement

I've seen some mappings that utilize external midi editors that could literally controll every parameter in Ableton but sadly I don't remember any.

APC40 In Production and Arrangement

Hey guys, Before someone freaks, yes I did look around and use the DSF google, and there is a lot of APC40 info out there, but mostly re: live setups, or general APC40 capabilities that are not specific or example driven.

Re: MIDI Pattern for Complex Basslines

IMO those complex lines like Skrillex are a bunch of patterns resampled together. It's not just one pattern in FL Studio. Skrew what do you mean exactly?

Re: mixdown as you go or when your finished?

IMO the mix down should be something that you are doing as you go along, and constantly tweaking and re-tweaking.
