this shit really helps translate the weird ideas you may have in your head into a tune.

I plan to go real haywire with this shit

bump

oh man. live just keeps me awed. never bored with this program. learned about unlinked envelopes yesterday. wow.

i also imagine this could be really helpful in programming some drum breaks. get your drum loop, create a few more loops with each as starting at a different hit in the pattern, the follow action on random? this is borderline generative music but sounds. gonna give it a shot when i go home.

86, whats up man? i see you postin a lot of GHF a lot too. much love to ya..

also, just tried it with the break technique, and wow. it is fucking SICKK! only if the resolution could be smaller, like 1/32, that could create for some serious pwnage.

ok, so i did a little work around for getting the 32 notes. i took all the clips, warped them them to half of their original tempo (from 100BPM to 50BM). experiment with warping style, repitch sounds like some twisted ADHD jungle. Im recording a long clip and them i am going to extract the breaks that i like. quick and dirty method.

obviously you can tweak from here ad infinitum. i have some clips warped double, some halved, some transposed, some not, some clips follow every 8th note etc, some every 16th, etc. possibilites are endless.

whats good , GHF fam!

I wanna start doing many, many patterns on the d-rums (as long as CPU holds up) ...cuz I right I'm only dealing with four. I wanna get like 16 going and do what you talking about right there.

or maybe get it going with vocals

this way you can fire off segments of the loop in a "slicing" manner but the loop will continue after triggering the sample. However, since triggering random clips for fun might make the beat be several steps off time, the first clip has a larger quantization so it can automatically be launched back in time with everything else.

satish i dont quite see what you are saying? isnt it set to global quantization so it should automatically be in time?

also, another merk technique: load up vocal with technique i mentiontion earlier, change warp to tempo, map tempo so a know kn your MIDI, destroy.

i was able to make a step filter, and a wobble set of dummy clips

included is also barebones dummy clips with follow actions ready to go. All you need to do is :
1.unzip them into your library
2.Drag desired .als into the project (you will see the clips)
3. Route the audio from the track you want to be affected, by either sends or direct routing

If you used my step filter, dub machine, or wobble machine, this as far as you need to go but if you want to change it then

4. open up the audio effect rack and drag an effect into each chain. the dummy clips cycle through those chains when you hit play.

Don't sleep on this! you will be glad you didn't....

didnt realize this was posted. gonna check it out. I'm trying to get this dummy clips thing underway and I feel like an idiot

thanks for the bump, i was thinking of making a new post specifically on Legato mode and basslines...i think i still might.

so much is possible with follow actions....it makes my head hurt

please do!

Cheers for this HD

Only had abelton a few weeks, really getting into it. Cubase feels so clunky and hard work even now...

Might even dump cubase, ill get £400 or so for it...

Cheers again for this tutorial.

self contained custom audio rack + dummy clips.

put in your library and drag to a new track.

Send your desired track to a return channel, then send that return channel to the track with the dummy clips. Click "IN" on the monitor settings.

You will need the Tal Dub delay 2, but you could easily swap it out for something else. Same thing goes with the loop i used for the dummy clips, if its not included you can use any loop at all...doesn't matter

the dummy clips have follow actions so when you hit play, the dub fuckery begins....
mess with the macros to change the dubness.

have fun...but experiment with it...swap the effects....change the follow action timing...etc

This seems to be down - any chance of the reup ?

Can host if you like.

Many thanks.
