- Here's my cool idea to create an awesome Chords-Automator in Ableton live 9. Without the use of Max devices
With Noam Yadgar
*Edit: You can also put the velocity randomizer in each chain to create deeper results!

the arp strum killed it mate. awesome content
Great video!
This is dope
Great idea! Thanks for sharing this. Random and velocity humanize the progression for good. Different timing note start would also add a more human feel to it
You’re welcome! I think putting the arppegiator in “random” can definitely create this effect... although I admit that my approach here is not specifically for humanizing the loop, but actually take advantage of the random (and somewhat chaotic, unexpected) capabilities of a computer
Great vid live is deep lots you can do hope I can scratch the surface .
wow thats an awesome idea. Thanks!
DJ Yukie You’re welcome, I’m glad you find it helpful!
Always!@@Tune4media
Wow amazing. I have been stuck on trying to create chords and this literally just saved my life. I was looking into creating Dirty chords effect rack for neo-soul and RnB type beats. Any tips on the how-to?
Thank you!
My suggestion is to listen to a lot of neo-soul and (and I guess modern RnB)
as far as I'm familiar, electric pianos (like fender Rhodes and Wurlies) are dominating the sound of the harmonic aspect of these genres, in neo-soul, I hear a lot of sweet bandpass filtering, some vinyl cracking (or tape saturation) effects, distortion and sometimes even LFO over the pitch, to make it sound like an old tape. Of course, it's not enough, the chords themselves are derived from jazz, personally, I hear a lot of X7b9 or (triton sub) on a dominant chord, Xm7add9 is extremely common in neo-soul. Try to focus and learn some jazz harmony, among with a subject called 'voicing', it will help you with this chunky warm neo-soul harmony. Hope this helps :)
Genius. How would you go about staggering the note start randomly as someone else suggested? Is there a function for that in Ableton?
Thank you (since this video the Chords-Automator went through some cool upgrades) I think I'll try to come up with an M4L device or even an upgrade to the M4L version of the Chords-Automator that will allow this behaviour. but for the 'none-max4live version' (this one), maybe you can achieve this using the Arpeggiator, set to a random, fast, single time and maybe a long release for the synth (it's not the most optimal, as I've said, maybe I'll make m4l device to do that) thank you for your suggestion!
@@Tune4media Top man. Thanks, a Max For Live tutorial would also be highly appreciated.
@@Johnnyjawbone also, you might find some of my Max tutorials that I already have on this channel useful :)
