Want a cleaner, faster Ableton workflow—and a live rig that just works? In this 1:1 session we’ll shape your exact setup: from hands-free looping and advanced routing to sound design, mixing, and export. I’ll help you build (or refine) a performance-ready template so you can focus on music, not menus.
What we can cover
Live set architecture: vertical vs. horizontal, scene design, “Loop Without Looping” method
Routing & busing: complex sends, returns, cue/mix, resampling, stems
Live looping: native Looper, follow actions, clip envelopes, scene automation
Max for Live & BINK Looper: setup, safety nets, performance macros
MIDI & control: Push mapping, foot controllers, global quantization, capture MIDI
Latency & stability: buffer size, warp modes, CPU optimization, fail-safes
Sound design & FX chains: racks, macros, sidechain, creative delays & reverbs
Sampling & beat work: Drum Rack, Simpler/Sampler, multisampling workflows
Mixing/mastering for release & YouTube: gain staging, loudness targets, export presets
Show prep: click/guide routing, multiple outputs, backups, tech rider
