    4 years into using Ableton and I never knew that you could do parallel effects using the effects rack without creating a wall of sends and returns. Thanks Reid - just one of the many gems in this tutorial.

    • @offchristianamr
      @offchristianamr 2 года назад +1

      I noticed that too lol. It's probably a slap back delay, which is a single echo that plays after a very short duration. It can mimic, for example, the sound of singing in an auditorium. You can make one by putting in a delay, setting the feedback all the way down to 0% so it just echos once, and setting the delay time to like 40ms. Adjust filtering to taste.

      Hi there. Thanks for the comment. As with many features in Live (and in music-making in general), sometimes the same effect can be achieved by different methods. But, sometimes people choose to use a parallel chain because it opens up possibilities for adding other effects which can be easily controlled all at once with the one track. If you're just using the one effect, there probably isn't a big difference. Hope this helps!

  • @shane5003
    @shane5003 2 года назад

    7:50 - warped and unwarped null if same tempo and no pitch change. The Fourier transform on complex and complex Pro imposes a slight phase shift so those won't null but beats most certainly does. I'm wondering then, why are you unwarping saying that it makes an audio quality difference? I have noticed some slight oddities with warped clips cross fading and no tempo or pitch variation and in one of the non-spectral warping modes. Haven't seen this to be repeatable though and it was mostly related to timing as I recall. Is this why you have unwarped them ?

    • @trecksbeats5850
      @trecksbeats5850 Год назад

      unwarping the vocals makes a load of difference, brother. it's actually night and day if you work with vocals a lot. everything sounds better and magically feels more natural. there really is no warp setting that feels natural or as natural compared to unwarping the vocal. it used to drive me mad and unwarping the vocal makes working with vocals in ableton worth it imo

    15:25 that is not expansion. That is upward compression. A similar process goes on if you throw in drum buss and then turn the transients knob to the right. You're holding up the reverb tails, releases, noise floor etc. If you were doing downward expansion it would be a similar process to turning the transients knob in drum bus to the left. Additionally, if you were expanding multiband across all those bands that heavily you would evaporate everything quiet in your signal. It would be similar to doing a nonlinear phase crossover across three bands and then throwing a gate on each one with about a -40 dB threshold given the settings you're playing with here. The whole point of OTT is to flatten out the spectrum. This is done by simultaneous multiband downward and upward compression per band, heavily. That said, use Duda's. It's free, and has better crossovers.
