Screen shot of my Ableton set for the my new band, we have our first show coming up on WUOG 90.5 in Athens in December. We have a drummer, guitarist, singer and I rap some as well as run shit from Ableton.
To sum up the session, I use the follow action for my rap parts so that the beat changes when I want it to, the red clips are dummy clips, which is KEY if you want an entire row to play at the same time when using the follow action. I also have each beat grouped and labeled with the song title and tempo and the tempo is mapped to a knob on my Axiom 25, and along the master channel each section of the song is labeled and the song itself is color coded (organization is key). I also have several synths set up which I can play via the keyboard and my MPD set up to trigger one shot samples and play drums from.
We will be releasing some songs soon, so stay tuned…
