not really about ableton, but opz synth sample exporting is shit, so here's how you do it I've been fine exporting at C3... but do what you need to. Sample must be mono, 16bit and 6 seconds long. AIFF format. Fill it with silence if need be, otherwise you get sample bleed from other stuff. Seems easier to do the exporting from something like Audacity? So far that's worked best This youtube vid is very useful. He mentions an online tool, but the original author seems to have moved on from the OP-Z, and isn't maintaining it anymore - so it might not exist when you read this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xu1IEC9C7oc
not really about Ableton, but this guy explains modes quite nicely http://www.ethanhein.com/wp/2011/the-major-scale-modes/ Play the white keys from X to X as a scale- starting at C - IONIAN -standard major starting at D - DORIAN - funk/jazz starting at E - PHRYGIAN - flamenco-y, adagio in g, middle eastern/jewish starting at F- LYDIAN - otherworldly/dreamy starting at G- MIXOLYDIAN - blues/rock - end of hey jude (nahhhh nahh), sweet home alabama! starting at A - AEOLIAN (OR NATURAL A MINOR) - standard minor - sad starting at B - LOCRIAN - dark/strange, unstable not used often http://www.ethanhein.com/wp/2010/scales-and-emotions/
Envelope follower is a Max 4 Live device. It takes an incoming signal, which can then be remapped onto another parameter. A nice way to use it, is to have two chains - one with NO effects, just a clean chain and the other should be the Envelope Follower grouped with a compressor (in front of it) and use the sidechain function to route the signal to a parameter on the same track. The Envelope follower group can be muted, so we just hear the result of the now automated "clean" chain.
