Thanks for this mate. I just picked this up on black friday and i'm loving it so far with ableton. You're giving us a complete rundown for free. Gotta respect that.

Just the perfect amount of dry humour and effects to match.

Really good tutorial guys, I'll be checking out part 2 now!

[Captskeeter]

Man, All of the information like how to set up the buttons to play clips and in general how to get started you say will be talked about in a bit but is never talked about. This is a good video I am sure for people who know how to set this up and are in the industry but sadly I am not that person and I am having a difficult time finding videos on how to do that. Any links to some very basic videos on assigning clips to screens or tracks and explaining the set up would be greatly appreciated.

You glossed over fixed length record--it's an amazing feature!!!

In chord mode, if you save a couple chords and then you change the scale of the notes on the left, do the saved chords change to the new scale or the stay the same as they were saved?

Great video, my only complaint is you made me make my mind up even before I got to the part I really am interested in the step sequencer mode, a great tutorial/user guide but damn you that is going to cost me money!!!! :)

Going to watch Pt 2 now.

Hello! Is it possibile to change the track in which I use chord in standalone mode or is it locked to track 1? I’m not able to use chord on other 3 tracks 😅

[bolidrecords]

Very good and really complet notice ! thx for all ! But the setting is very difficult for me, could you help me ? my need is to use it like a push. Is it possible to combine Sequencer and note at the same time ? do you have a tuto for that, or a tips ? :) Thx a lot !!

[dvnc-music]

I have a question about the chord mode, what is the range of notes displayed on the grid when you are in the chord mode, is it 5 octaves? or in other words can you only use the notes within 5 octaves when you are building a chord? or can you use other notes by using the octave change button while still building the chord?

[FunnFoto]

Cool stuff. I think you could have made them shorter and with more dial in. Thanks for the useful info. Subbed.
