Song :: Dark

I sat on this song a long time.
Made real progress for a month, and then sat on it for awhile.

Today, I am forcing myself to be done with this and move on.
I think I was getting to micro-focused on parts of this song.

There is a lot of stuff in this song, that I like, and a few thing that I wish I could do again. oh well, right?

I could not get the sounds dialed in fully for what I wanted at the end of the song. The last little melody that starts on a string patch, and moves to a combination of sounds.

Ableton Collections

Discovered a new thing this morning in Ableton. Collections.

So when I hovered aroudn the word, a little 'edit' button became visible.



Of course I clicked it.
This lead me to a series of colors, that I enabled.


I then surfed around to a plugin, and was able to add a color to it by right clicking on that plugin. I went back, and right click on the color, or 'Ctrl + R' let me rename it.

Demo :: Circus Clowns

 Posted the latest on a new song I am working on still. I actually came up with the riff during one of the silly debates this fall in the US.


Take a listen and let me know your thoughts

In this episode of Figure It Out, I show the EASIEST way for me to sample using the Time Warp function in Ableton Live and how I chop samples using the slice to new midi function in Ableton Live.

Thanks for this. Was helpful and gave me some new ways to look at ableton and music writing.

Song :: I Recognize Her

There is not much to this one. Was exploring some elements with Massive. Maschine, and then finally Ableton. This is another thing that I sat on forever, so really just want to be done with it I think.
