"Whenever something goes wrong or something breaks just play a kickdrum, people will love it." - Frank Weidemann, 2020. Love and respect dear Frank. Thank you!
I learnt SO much from this! Great advice about how to play live - I've always been super stressed and given myself too many things to do...not any more! :)
Love how Well separated are the playback channels and the improvising channels. The chain selector on the synth rack seam a really nice way to play with vsti on the same channel ! Quick question, that's probably in the deep dive class on in bloom. But i'm curious at the end whats your sample rate / buffersize / latency in ableton ? I guess the RME should help a lot !
19:50, Roland Butique ain't analog, it's digital design, ACB - analog circuit behaviour, which means every parameter off analog design was created using CPU
technically he could run sequences just with the keystep and the korg sq-1 through the modular without ableton (and does that in a way, he talks about it when discussing "improvising" and the apc mini).... he could supplement with another outboard polyphonic groovebox or sequencer like a digitakt I guess.... octave one use an MPC as their master sequencer and for all of their midi to send to external gear.... an MPC is basically a standalone equivalent to ableton in this regard. karenn have modular racks and other outboard gear all clock/trigger synced so they're just playing on top of one another. why is it so impressive to not use ableton? you do realize ableton was created by robert henke to specifically as a software sequencer that could do things that weren't possible at the time with standard hardware sequencers and even today would set you back thousands of quid to do with euroracks. not everybody is a hardware purist and the beauty of ableton is the ability to go from producing to playing live seamlessly which other DAWs aren't as good at. it's really just different styles and approaches for the same thing. have you been to an octave one show or just watched them online? it's basically just them loading in and loading out that rat's nest of equipment.... it's beautiful and they are one of my favorite live acts, but just saying, sometimes it's about using the most efficient tools for the job. they know the mpc up and down but a lot of people won't necessarily have one laying around like they have a laptop.
Sorry for the late reply: well i could probably do that by using something like an octatrack to playback samples or stems from our songs and then adding up with hardware. But then: i've been "working" for many painful years with sequencers like the one in the JX3P or an MSQ700 actually waiting for all the possibilities that Ableton now has. Forgive me if i don't want to go back to these times :)
@@ame6925 no problem for the late reply. It's still impressive. Hope to see you somewhere this summer in the Netherlands, your sets are always a journey for me.

I actually learned this from Henrik Schwarz - his credits!
Wow…!
This is just the perfect balance between improvisation and bringing structured tracks from studio.
Just awesome 👏
This is a masterclass
Wow what an interesting video! Really enjoyed learning about how live sets work!! Thanks ❤
Unique, creative and full of energy! Would love to see an Ableton masterclass by you Mr. Wiedemann.
Thank you for tonight in London 🤙
I would not be surprise to find out frank was working for Nasa. Absolutely Master of Universe
huge artist. mega person. hyper professiobal. one and only master of universe.
Frank master , thanku for this
many, many, many thanks frank, this is the first time i really understand how to pay live wich is my dream, you helped me bro...
Danke Frank!!! Das ist das Video auf dass ich seit Jahren gewartet habe!!!!
What valuable content! Simply a sympathetic and authentic character. And: YES, PLEASE MORE OF THAT. Danke Frank!!
Sehr informativ. Interessant wie sie die arbeitsweise durch Ableton in den letzten 20 Jahren verändert hat. Danke!
cool, one of my fav artist from Germany!!, Henrik included:)!
vielen Dank für die verständlichen Einblicke in dein Setup, Frank!
Kann mich mawho music nur anschließen.... perfekt... Danke, Inspiration pur!
Thank you very much!! Âme'! You are a legend! The advice about kick is impossible to overestimate)

Awesome! Thanks Frank!
fantastico,
Starkes Video! Danke vielmals Frank!
Mega, sowas ist wie Gold. Danke.
Such a great video! Thank you so much!
10:25 How can I set up my APC so that I can always move across 5 scenes in the matrix (without pressing the shift key)?
Beatiful, thanks boss! ♥

Hi. Sorry for the late answer: I'm at 48kHz, Buffer 512, latency around 10 ms (which never bothered me ...). Hope this helps
looking forward to watch this...thanks for targeting me on fb with this video
damn, it is awesome to take a deeper look into your setup.
Thank you for sharing Frank !
Nice
I am looking for the name of song played at 37:00 for years, does someone have it ?
Das ist geil

DANKIE
Methodically scary but it still takes you somewhere you want to be
Is it possible to play without Ableton for you? Like sludge, karenn and octave one. That wil be very impressive
technically he could run sequences just with the keystep and the korg sq-1 through the modular without ableton (and does that in a way, he talks about it when discussing "improvising" and the apc mini)....
he could supplement with another outboard polyphonic groovebox or sequencer like a digitakt I guess....
octave one use an MPC as their master sequencer and for all of their midi to send to external gear.... an MPC is basically a standalone equivalent to ableton in this regard. karenn have modular racks and other outboard gear all clock/trigger synced so they're just playing on top of one another.
why is it so impressive to not use ableton?
you do realize ableton was created by robert henke to specifically as a software sequencer that could do things that weren't possible at the time with standard hardware sequencers and even today would set you back thousands of quid to do with euroracks. not everybody is a hardware purist and the beauty of ableton is the ability to go from producing to playing live seamlessly which other DAWs aren't as good at.
it's really just different styles and approaches for the same thing. have you been to an octave one show or just watched them online? it's basically just them loading in and loading out that rat's nest of equipment.... it's beautiful and they are one of my favorite live acts, but just saying, sometimes it's about using the most efficient tools for the job. they know the mpc up and down but a lot of people won't necessarily have one laying around like they have a laptop.
