Exploring Drum Racks
Vespers (our Ableton Live robot trainer from the future) has created the hottest, most in-depth tutorial on Ableton Live’s Drum Racks in the universe! If you use Live you’ve got know Drum Racks!
Drums are the rock solid foundation of any killer track. One of the secrets to creating the phattest phreaking drum sounds in Ableton Live is mastering Live’s awesome, built in Drum Racks.
This tutorial, presented by our Ableton Live Certified Trainer “Vespers” takes you deep down into the “racks!” He shows you what they’re all about, why you need to know how they work and how to use them to enhance and power-up your productions.
But that’s not all: Vespers takes you way beneath Live’s virtual surface to explore Drum Racks’ advanced functionality. You’ll learn about drag and drop programming, layering, hit based processing and humanization (which is odd for an alien to know) and much, much more!
So ride along with Vespers as he launches you on an extraterrestrial expedition into the percussive world of Drum Racks! This tutorial will give you the edge you’ve been looking for as you build the punchiest drums and baddest beats this side of insanity!
