How a default template will improve your workflow (free template)

Having a default template set up and ready to go will drastically improve your workflow. You'll save time, energy and will be more capable of focusing on what truly matters: Making music. I'm going to walk you through my Ableton Live 11 default template that I use for all genres (mainly House & Techno) and give you an in-depth overview and explanation of every individual track and effect. This video is beginner friendly and easy to follow. Enjoy!

Ich habe heute in der Nacht daran gedacht, ob ich Kevin frage, ob er uns sein Workflow zeigt. Ich schalte meinen Rechner ein und ... Oh Wunder. Das Viedeo ist wie bestellt da. Besten Dank!!!😁😁😁

For beginner - intermediate producers, templates are a god send! I've been producing for nearly 15 years, for the first 10 or so of those, I was a template stan. I still use one, but it is a lot more streamlined/minimal than what I used to do. No more pre-fab midi/automation.

There's something about the feeling of an actually blank slate that I would say really stimulates me to be creative, rather than going through the motions. Certain things, like audio-routing or recording chains being effectively automated, send/return tracks being set up, the technical mumbo jumbo that you are going to do anyway in every track, all of that stuff is still templated out. But I would say once you are at a 10+ years skillset level (and by 10 years I mean 10 years of good practice, of thinking about production/getting faster in the daw for all 10 of those years) you can create things so fast that you are actually LIMITED when presented with a more finished template.

Food for thought :)

In my 8 years of music production, I have NEVER seen such an effective sidechain method & I thank you for it. I just tested it now on one of my tracks & I already have a much cleaner & stable mix.

This is great! Do you have a more updated template in Ableton 11?

Thank you for the Template! I found myself turning down each layer 6db to give the Master some headroom for the Mastering Processors. 🙏
