Great tutorial! Seriously considering switching to ableton for mixing NGL... Can we get a copy of the beat repeat chain please ?🙏🏻 😫 🥰

U can also go hybrid right? like 2 tracks for ableton and the rest on USB? or?

This was a really dope tutorial! I’d love to see you & Nik hop back on again and talk about how y’all synced up those MIDI/OSC signals with the video triggers. Was the whole Outer Edges show programmed and played on that one razer laptop? Or did you have different machines that ran certain parts? Also, if a laptop crapped out on you, did you have any backups setup?

Hi, thanks! And no, there's an individual copied chain on all four channels. Nothing goes through the master in this set-up!

great video thanks! always wanted to know how you use ableton for djing! but what i noticed working with mastered songs in ableton (may it be for mashups or just doing edits of a production) is that when you turn on warping, most of the algorithms do something with the transients, so the track starts clipping and therefore loses quality. how do you care about this problem??

Hey Martjn! Really enjoyed this one. I’m so used to my own way of doing things that your total outside perspective was very refreshing. Repurposing unused loop markers etc as a way to make notes is genius! You mentioned that the “load everything first” method can stifle improvisation. I think I can help with that. This brief video (8 mins) outlines a “load on the fly” method that is much closer to a traditional DJ setup and allows one to use search tags etc. like Rekordbox. https://vimeo.com/29932560 If you ever wanna talk ableton DJ stuff hit me up. Been my primary DAW since version 4 and I’ve sold tens of thousands of templates since I made the first ever commercial Ableton DJ template in 2006. Lots of love!

One Question. Are the beat repeats on the Master Channel?

Yo Martijn, this tutorial is clutch and such a rare look inside something that is a HUGE question mark. No names are always trying to make a killing off of people with what they think it is and will take mad cash to show, and it always is so complicated and not worth the investment. This is perfect, and you are a King for letting this out. THANK YOU! I am proud to be in on this Patreon. It just keeps exceeding my expectations. Thanks again.
