He said if you pitch it up you get a major feel if you pitch it down you get minor feel. False if its in minor no matter where you move it its the same minor feel just in a different key.
I use Ableton 11 Live Suite but in some occasions depending on what type of music I wanna make, but Ableton does have superior sound selection and loops,effects for EDM and for new mellow vanilla R&b. FL Studio is better for mixing,has infinite ways of making a beat loud,adding plugins is easier,etc but yeah I still give FL the edge.
But sound design wise, and EDM isn’t too different from other generic genres, editing the tracks instead of making patterns and going into patterns interface and to the mixing interface, it has a straightforward way not like ableton where u can do whatever u want
@@busyworksbeats Anytime bro! I got a few tracks I made on Ableton I just need soneone to play some keys on it not because I dont know how to play them but because I dont have the sounds for it.
Pro tip, if your going to duplicate your drum loop for a longer pattern with a change up at the end for your drums, I suggest you change the loop length in the clip section to 4 bars so it’s less tedious 👍🏽.
Just became a believer after a year on Reason! Ableton totally made me stop overthinking stuff and just trust intuition. I'm currently trying to score Cubase for a Mac with the M1 chip sooooooo....if anyone wants to be my friend.... 😂 Nah seriously, about is dope! Especially when I get my MPC involved.
I believe that you can press command and hover/click over a note on the MIDI editor, and a number will pop up. The number represents the velocity, and you can enter a number and that will be the velocity for that note and every note after. Make sure you are not in draw mode. I have been using Ableton for a 6 months and I find it more creative than FL. In FL there is so much graphics and that to me is distracting. I have improved my music so much since switching to Ableton.
@@Sundji As Busy said, FL has VSTs that use graphical interfaces. Their whole arrangement view is much "nicer" due to all of the extra graphics. In FL, there is a separate mixer, piano roll, pattern editor, etc, unlike Ableton that just has everything "built in". The mixer, For example has no nice looking slider, and no nice looking side chain in and outs, it is just a rectangle with a blue value, Compared to FL. The piano roll is BARE compared to FLs. No extra tools (select, paint, magic paint, delete etc), either.
@@MidnightCamomile oh I get what you mean. I think that's exactly why I couldn't figure out how to use ableton. Everything was so basic and visually doesn't help me understand what's going.
@@Sundji yea. for me, that is better, because i can be more creative in my music easier, cuz' there is nothing distracting me. it comes down to personal opinion.
I have all of these DAWs and only use maybe 2 of them. Some of them have a real hard learning curve to them. The tip is to go into them like you don't know anything, that way you don't have to compare.
I use ableton, recently got FL studio to learn it. So I like both atm. As for drums, I know there is the drum rack but I don’t know anyone who uses it. Much easier to just drag kick snare etc to their own midi or audio track. Cmd G if you want to group them. If you have a one shot audio sample but want to use piano roll create a midi track and double click the audio. Busy works is a great teacher and I’d be lost in FL without him
The funniest thing about people who don't use ableton is saying all of the stuff it doesn't do....but it actually does if u actually knew how to use it.
@@busyworksbeats ableton isn't intuitive because u learned on FL studio...ableton is basic and easy....I came from an mpc background and it was the 1st daw I learned...I actually followed the included lessons and it was easy to learn....I hate every other software because of the learning curve....I get it🤣🤣🤣🤣
I've been using FL studio since I was 20 in 2004, so almost 20 yrs. 🤦🏾♂️ I'm old. But the thought of learning another DAW is 🤯 scary. I'll feel like it's taking me too long to figure out things I already k ow if I were using fruity loops
Hey Carlin! Finding a lot value here as a newb; thank you! Question, and, again, I'm a newb so bare with me; why did you dial up this piece in the Arrangement view and not the Session view?
Man you work Albeton way better than you said! Lol I've been rocking with you probably since you started and I've been able to transfer some or most of you FL tutorials over to my MPC Key 61 and my MPC One! The piano roll is similar in my opinion. The one thing I struggle with "still" is finding the samples key or notes it's in. You did that too fast and too easy.
Does anyone know how to slow down a beat mid way through the progression of the beat? I know in FL we can do that but I still haven't found a way to slow down a beat for an outro if it makes sense. Anyone know?
Does anybody know where I can get ol skool type of R&B guitar loops? Looking for R Kelly,The Dream,Dwele,Erykah Badu,Raphael Saadiq type of playing style...somebody help a Chad out lol
@@busyworksbeats Sample chopping and warping samples to the beat is much easier and superior in Ableton. Ableton is easy to learn once you understand its user interface.

Your smoking fl is the worst for mixing and I'm a fl user. I watched some vids on ableton and it handles audio significantly better even against fl 21

At First its strange coming from FL but with time Ableton becomes so superior in my opinion to any daw

Unclick the fold button to see your notes
Killing me with these thumbnails 😂😂
Haha I gotta practice thumbnails like I practice beats hah
2:10 cool I didn't know how to convert from major to minor and viceversa great stuff man keep doing it

I just wish the DAW makers (All of them) would make things more intuitive. Sub menus and right click and commands are what make learning so difficult.

Bro I just switched from ableton to fl and I’m loving it
Ableton is best DAW no doubt 💯
FL Studio Way better
For Djays
@joey4track Agreed! FL is a suppressive DAW to me. Ableton is WAY more creative.
OPINION
Ableton is overrated. I love and own both but FL studio is quicker and more creative for me.

Nice video, I was very close to switching to ableton live 8 once, and then I discovered cakewalk by bandlab

Ableton yay! Watch the homie on Splice channel, he's legit
Nm, you know what you're doing, thanks for the video man!
I have struggled with every DAW I have tried except for FL Studio. Ableton, Pro Tools, Garage Band, Logic...
Ableton live 11 is my fav software ever
He cares about your kids guys, more than you do
powerful daw not many people mess with is waveform (but is what i learned on)
❤
I'm sticking with FL Studio. I've been using it since Version 9.0
please make more videos with ableton (specially warping youtube sample that is soooo haaaard to set it on one bpm)
NIce Video u COuld just HOld Shift when u are on warp mode and drag the pattern on the right corner and will strech/tempo the audio also
25:05 you can loop a midi by draggin the end
Evyerytime I buy a midi controller or interface they all come with ableton live lite I even have a push I'll never ever leave FL gang
Ableton just doesn’t work with the way my mind works.

You can right click the bpm and create an automation clip on your master bus

@@bboymac84 Thanks bro will check it out
U literally had the answer😂😂😂😂😂😂go to their music.

@@djdrwatson it’s not bad for midi too, because it deals with sounds as tracks u can be little bit free to do everything you want

@@flowkid76 because u don’t know how to use it
I gainstage better in ableton than fl
Exactly! Same here! I find that mixing and mastering in Ableton is very intuitive and easy to navigate.
Had Ableton then deleted it that software is a pain to my eyes. Plus there piano roll is like blahhhh
Can do themes
