I’ll admit i’m not an ableton power user, especially in the studio, so the bundled stripped down edition is more than enough for my actual needs, though i may be tempted to upgrade in the future.

In the video i’ve just thrown a couple of loops from a piece i’m working on in the session view and noodled on. It’s loads of fun, and i’m quite happy with the tune as it is. It is bare bones and needs a lot more fleshing out and bells and whistles (well maybe not really bells and whistles, you know) but it bounces along pretty well. When i’m using samples i always try to pair recorded sounds with my own synth tones, and the marriage is always a difficult one, so to speak, especially when real brass is involved. Don’t know, i just feel this might wind up a real swell chilled out tune.
