This is excellent, bro. All of my tracks to date are more of a progressive, melodic house if you will. I’ve always been interested in producing techno and this is a great start. I haven’t browsed through the rest of your vids yet and I’m hoping there is more techno related ones amongst them. Great work and thanks for this concise information without the typical blabbering.

[Dj.itzikharel]

Great video only began using Ableton the last week and found your videos super helpful, you can maybe explain maybe more detail some things would be perfect and when your adjusting like release and decay and what not try zoom in, I usually have Ableton opened trying to copy what you do! Love the techno videos and maybe if you could some more Ableton samples too overall great video 👍

Really simply put and easy to follow, thanks

Still using Ableton then ey?! It's good to watch you do this even though I get totally lost as you move very quickly through the program. I have realised from watching this how important it is to get a good beat/ rhythm going before doing anything else. I have been a bit focused on the chords and melody I suppose. It's also amazing to me not only are there the completely different ways that DAWs operate, within each program there are several ways of doing the same thing such as laying down a beat. I have been trying to replicate how FL does a beat by opening the instruments on a piano roll in the audio bar at the bottom and doing it from there. I had been tending to use the session view in Ableton. You make it look so easy on here but I have gone back to FL since watching a vid you did recently. Hope you are well and thanks for Posting.

Could you slow down a bit in the tutorial, especially in the high hats section at 13:23? You've totally skipped explaining where to find the 1-shot panel for the high hats. I was following along nicely until this part, it got a bit rushed and unclear. It's frustrating to have to search online for this information and sift through a plethora of forums that don't lead to the answers I'm looking for.. all of that could be avoided by simply and clearly stating where you found these things.

Is there any more Techno tutorial in Collective Intelligence? ???

[powerfuldags]

So what the purpose of grouping the percussion? Do you loop that or delete it

[xMartoo]

Could you do a video for a bassline that would go with this beat?

[si_monster]

the kick samples of mine don't fill out the grid? How? It is not a problems in terms of sound, but it does not look nice

[BlazeTsteel]

I love that knocking sound, but cant find any sample like that, help! :D

[adambrensen]

Anyone know why you'd use samples rather than work with a drum kit and record midi to trigger the sounds?

[nekter]

this isn't really techno (its tech house) good video!
