Synthshit

Use case example, on the OP-1, you record something at 64bpm. But you then change the tape speed to playback a bit slower, say 50bpm. You like this feel, you even want the pitch shift. In Ableton, set the project bpm to 50. Import your stem/clips whatever you want to call them. In the track parameters, enable "warp" and set the bpm to the original tempo - in our case 64. Set the warp type to repitch & ta-da you have a similar effect. The reverse should apply for speeding up!

 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.

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/

 another non-Ableton post, but it's the close enough.. get the paths of all the songs, by highlighting them in Windows Explorer, hold left-shift and right click them...it should give you a "copy path" option. Paste this into a text editor and then put all of the paths in one line, with a space between them. Basically go to the start of each line of the pasted text, hit backspace once and then space once (it will make sense). Select all of that once done and copy it. Next launch Anaconda, type demucs  paste your stuff and then  -d cuda hit enter It will tell you where the splits are going..

 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

Follow actions on clips are a super powerful way to control or automate the flow of your playing clips and scenes. You might have to click the little arrow/triangle next to the word "Clip" to see the follow options. Click the Follow Action button so it's activated and orange. The modes are mostly fairly self explanatory. It's worth noting that in Ableton 11 you can have two follow actions that can be chosen at random with a % slider. Pret-ty cool! The ones that might need explanation or expanding -  "Jump" lets you specify a scene number to go to - eg 1-6 as shown "Any" and "Other" are similar but Other will try to pick a clip different to itself, as long as it isn't "alone". See clips 5 & 6 above - they are isolated from clips 1,2 & 3, by having an empty space at scene 4. So if they are both set to "other", they will only choose between themselves (5 & 6).

Add a glue compressor to a track- Click the arrow button shown below if you can't see the Side Chain option. Select the appropriate channel. Full Gain will get you ducking. Tweak the other bits to your liking! A "cleaner/better" way to do side chaining however, is to copy the piano roll from your ducking channel - eg. the kicks. onto a cleaner signal -eg. an Operator, set to a simple Triangle wave. The kicks will have all sorts of different attacks & decays, as well as noise in general, so using a seperate ducking channel, which you can just set to mute once it's all setup, is much cleaner.
