This is such a welcome new workflow feature and one that will most definitely help so many people with songwriting and trying out different ideas so much faster without loosing oneself between changing notes and going too much on a tangent of feeling potentially uninspired. Thank you so much Ableton for designing this so well.
dunno why but at 1:00 the instructor explains to hold down alt or option and press on a key in the piano roll. On my windows device it is ctrl, not alt. Just in case people were having the same issue
Same here.
This is the feature i look forward to the most. Hope the push 3 standalone Version/integration is well made
ahaha ... No
Yeeeah nope. Push Standalone has got the instruments but pretty much everything else is the same.
Tethered Push will of course integrate as a controller but I am really disappointed these generators aren't included. It would make P3S a blast to use LIVE.
Goddam it Ableton, get your product people to work together. Push Standalone not being a first class citizen at a $3k pricetag is ludicrous.
Zero communication about Live and Push's relationship moving forward. I know Standalone and Live are inherently distinct, but what is the strategy? How should my expectations be set?
@@bloopbleepnothinghere that's a great point...i have the P3S & haven't even thought of the fact that they haven't mentioned anything new/updated for the push...
Me too @ableton listen to us P3 users
None of those generators are integrated into any Push version right now. You can't map any of the parameters yet...
It’s the ultimate music making tool 🎉❤ congrats to the whole team 😊
Amazing, can't wait until it's weekend!
Cool! Ableton Team, Thank you so much!⚡
Incredible work, thank you
another amazing feature, awsome!
Paradise on Music Production Thanks for this amazing stuff! It’s very helpful for beginner producers without any music theory! ♥️ I am just love it! Can’t wait for the another upcoming updates! ♥️
Live 12 hype!
I might not use this feature, but I enjoy learning the logic behind these generating rules.
This Update is a blast!
Please make the MIDI generator controls MIDI mappable...
This!
Amazing feature! Can you please tell us when this is coming to push standalone?
I need to upgrade ASAP!!
Live 12 is so great❤
Fantastic!!!
Dear Ableton team, thank you so much for creating these wonderful videos and for producing a great software. I've been a paying customer since 2007 and I'm sure many in this chat have been paying customers for years too. I am also sure that you are reaching many potential future customers as well. These videos should support the sale of your products and not be another source of making money with advertising incentives. So please stop forcing us to watch advertisements from other companies/businesses on this channel. Please do not make yourself appear greedy.
Using Ableton live I composed you the saddest sounding violin music to go along with this comment.
Ableton Suite has an $800 price tag and you’re still wondering whether they’re greedy or not 😂😂 😂😂😂😂😂
It would be great if all the generator controls could be controlled by LFOs or envelopes.🙏
All very impressive, but the feature which I like the most... and which truly made my jaw drop (almost to the floor) is the option to build your own generators using Max for Live. I am personally not a fan of Euclidean _at all_ and even removed it from my system. Not saying it's bad, but... meh: that could have been made in ReJS as well; I'm simply not a fan. Each to their own, ok?
BUT being able to make this stuff yourself... is *huge* . I currently have a beta project which generats MIDI based on certain keys I press on my Push :P It's far from perfect (or good for that matter) but it does show what crazy things we can now do here. Like generating MIDI on the fly, and then use it during a live performance for example.
4:13 that's like mirror's edge catalyst type music
The melody adheres to a selected scale, but a better feature would be to adhere the melody to a selected chord progression.
Flume bout to go ham with this haha
so cool…I’ve produced music for 30 years and this stuff is fantastic whether it’s for you or not… party on friends
The rhythm generator is cool....but I'm finding it very unintuitive. For instance, you have to be very sure you dont have any notes selected when you switch between, say, Kick and Snare...otherwise they disappear or move to another sound.
Similarly, if you have a drum pattern with multiple sounds and you go and highlight the notes for the snare....but AHA, the KICK is what's selected in the drop down menu....it all disappears. It takes a lot of getting used to.
Maybe over time this will make sense and be something that comes naturally... But it seems to me, what would be most helpful is if, when you selected ANY notes, the midi generator parameters on the left controlled THOSE notes you have selected. Same as it works with Quantize.
Totally agree but I think the problem is more to do with this video. It seems to assume you know everything in the first place, in which case why the hell would you even be watching it. I'm new to 12 , having upgraded from 9 which I had not used for years. I'm pretty sure I have found some good instruction videos on RUclips by other content creators. Seems to me Ableton are about the worst at explaining their own product. I'm sure it will all work well once I understand it but there is no way I'm ever going to do so by watching videos like this one.
@@Jazman342 usually official Live videos are quick demonstration just to show the new functions. It was always like this...
do they return to the previous position if you undo with cmd+z?
@@mttlsa686 My point entirely. The other end of the spectrum is the current Udemy video which I'm finding quite useful. Watching the whole thing from start and although I know most of it, I'm still finding little things that I was not aware of. And that's without even getting as far as any of the new stuff.
I literally just purchased my upgrade from because of this video 😂
love evil notelba
In live 14 there will just be a big button named “make music”
Yep
nope
The new Logic Pro kinda has it already
AI already does that
@@cesarbarbosa4109 the leap ai had since I wrote the comment is insane
what instrument / synth is being played at 7:15? I would really love to know and play around with it more i love the sound of it
on the bottom right it's written "Bowed piano - formant pad" if I can help.
this seems sorta cool in theory, but the execution feels so clunky & hard to get anything actually usable that doesn't just sound/feel like a bunch of random notes
It's been out one day, I can't imagine you've spent much time with it for muscle memory to kick in
@@lstlvls2521 i was on the beta for over a month before the release. a lot of the quality of life improvements (i.e. key mapping for projects, mixer in arrangement view, etc) have been nice, but this & the browser have felt really clunky for me
@@lstlvls2521 i was using the beta for over a month before release so i had enough time to play around with it. some of the transform stuff is really cool (like strum), but the generate section is still pretty goofy for me
Agreed. I'm having a hard time getting it to make anything other than random blips and bleeps that all sound out of time and non melodic. He makes it look so easy in the video :/
I think most of the generators are just to give an initial basic idea to get inspiration from...
is there a hotkey for generate?
updated ver 12.0.1 and
stil not fixed
ALT + E (midi notes cut function)
Was messing around with this and it kept overwriting my previous midi and I couldn't figure out how to revert it back. Luckily I kept the original midi Clip above that modified track… but is there something I'm missing here without having to mash undo shortcuts??
0:45 - They mentioned that to "print" a generated selection of notes, you need to press ctrl + enter or command + enter.
If using the Push pad, how do I generate a pattern using i.e. a kick drum, saving the pattern or writing it, then creating a pattern over it with i.e. a clap?
without recording it then pressing record again to record the different drum parts* Also, is there a way to syncopate the beat?
🔥
If they made possible to automate midi transformations it would have been perfect...
when i "apply" a generated pattern, and then switch to a different note or sample, it just moves the midi pattern to the new lane. it doesn't behave the same way as it does in this video. I can only seem to get one lane going at a time. can someone tell me what i'm doing wrong? thanks
Yes I have the same problem.
Same, its a bug ive already reported it. Surprised it got by in the beast tbh.
The generators do not seem to keep in the chosen key. You can even see in the melodic example that a handful of notes are not in-key notes.
Yeah there is still a ton of minor bugs in the alpha release.
by 2030 even a baby can make music because it has become so easy
All the options have also made it more complex. I remember having reason 2.5, because you had limited modules you learned the hell out of the few instruments you had. Now there is way too much choice it's overwhelming.
Text prompts will be the tools of the modern music/video producer and the way music production gets done, just like images and video, Sharpen up and grab the 🍿.
Imagine, hey GPT, make me a house music club dance tune you might hear at drum sheds, scale E Phrygian w/kick anchored at 49hz, 5 minutes, 32 bar intro, 32 bar outro, 2 breakdowns, punchy operator 909 kicks, operator bass, analog dom dolla pads, drift Carl cox stabs, and wave table Chris lake effects. Please create all patches in native Ableton instruments as specified so they can be tweaked later. Please set kick at -12db and adjust other tracks accordingly resulting in a multi track project having -6db headroom for master channel output 😂. Oh, and toss in some minimal, gritty urban rap lyrics about robots on mars💡
But will it be good
not sure if I would call this music...
IDK, tons of factors, guess it depends on who is prompting, playing, etc...just like producing in a way, we'll have to see when the tools arrive@@ruasynth8696
It’s incomprehensible that the Ableton live manual has no description of how the Euclidean rhythm midi generator works.
probably because they dont want someone ripping off their formula and recreating it in some ide for free.
@@chessmusictheory4644 well, then I’m not going to use it.
still so many bugs with the generators. no crashes, but sometimes they just dont repopulate, have to delete the clips and try again. Always a problem with coding and machine learning,
imagine automating these parameters🤭🤯
Some John Cage stuff :)
💪
no excuses now
🍾
I dont see any reason to upgrade . Its not needed to make better music .. ableton upgraded this time its mostly midi with some tricks or automated generators and preset sound browsing upgrade .. if all sounds are already good organised and you avoid 10000 same sound its nothing worth …the visual possibility to mix their 2 screen into one is cool but also .. makes no difference in sound and i do not mind to switch to mixer page if i am mixing .. not better to fill the monitor to see all whats going on also what you dont need … for the price they should bring other things: like be able to (re)program your own shortcuts (!}. and decent analog tube/preamps on input insert channel... i would like mixer Snapshots to be able to listen to several mixes from the same project , Intelligent denoising at recording or sample stem separation, maybe a pioneer like 2 projectsmixermodule build at output in or other more creative stuff for transitions ..decent leveling metering without plugins ... Ableton used to start as a different daw then others and still the best for me bu this midi upgrade that no-one cant play wrong notes anymore ..naah .... maybe the wrong note was the interesting one 🎶😎
Bots are now making my music
i know this voice from TeenageEngineering right?

Abletonia is your wife. You married her in your 20s. You cheated on her with FLoria, ProToolie, Logicola and Cubasia because you thought there are better DAWs out there. But then you always come home to Abletonia, because she gets prettier and smarter as she ages, and she even learned how to bounce just to spice things up in the bedroom where you produce. So please, be a good husband and stay here with Abletonia and your son Max.

So much and no Follow chord feature. Thats whats actually useful. Creating midi following our designated chord progression. This is just gimmicky. The final result sounds so computerised.
Thanks, but no thanks.
This guys voice is grating
Now we have stuff that makes the music for you, yeah... 🤔
Who cares? It's fun. Will this bother you on your deathbed?
If you choose to look at it that way, sure. You could also look at it as a way for musicians and sound designers to put more work into other aspects of creation. At the end of the day, the creator's ear is still the great filter for what gets made and released.
When you put any question mark with these new technologies you'll always get your answer. For me this is just a very fundamental thing: do I want a machine to inspire me or help me. Will my music become better and if so how do I feel about that etc...
Nah. If you don't recognise a good rhythm or chord progression this won't help. This will be really useful for me
This has been around for long in third party devices.
Soon we`ll be generating max for live devices entirely.
