I'll keep trudging away though and asking questions. Its very frustrating hearing the sounds in my head I want to make, even seeing them in the videos on the ableton/renoise sites but trying to learn it seems like trig class. I dunno, I'm still trying to figure it out. ableton seems to do the same sounds but be more hands on. I look at beat slicing on renoise and its confusing as hell, numbers and letters assigned to microscopic sections. I actually have fully registered versions of both ableton and renoise so I'm good to go. I'm no noob to this style of music, just creating it.
Yes, no more slicing the amen! I've been dj'ing for years but have recently decided I dont like most of the records I hear compared to what I want to make. Oh and just for the record, making glitchy/ breakcorish beats in ReNoise and importing the waves into Ableton is awesome, maybe chop it up in Recycle first?!!Ĭorygilbert wrote:If you haven't already, buy live, you will get more out of it and appreciate greater returns in your efforts, both now and later. Like monkeys with typewriters, for gods sake, he's heard us AMEN!! We've actually run through all the permutations of slice/cut of this great break. Oh and remember, nobody wants to hear you chop up the Amen break, Keep demoing renoise, it will keep you thinking in different terms and allow you to go more resolute with intricate/crisp types of drums.īesides if you begin to develop your skills in REnoise it's a might cheaper than ableton and you'll already be off to a great start with a great program. You can do these things in live, I and many do, but I still use renoise for the above reasons and because the interface does take your mind out of the paridigm of DaW and into a more sculpting type of attitude in reference to your beats.Ībleton rocks, keep working and digging and asking questions here, you will not be disappointed. Very important things for very fast intricite drums. i'm also reffering to the ability of a tracker to quickly (once you've learned the methods) of entering trigger information and changing elements such as start times, sample lengths and repeat variations. And before I get yelled at here, i'm not just talking about latency and the accuracy of playing in notes to live. The timing in Live is great, don't let anyone tell you otherwise, but there is an inherent limit to the resolution of events that a midi system of any kind can give you. The qualities that Renoise has over ableton are few but very important for the style of music you are seeking to create. Keep demoing renoise, it's a superb tracker, what you are doing is far from coding, but i understand the learning curve. If you haven't already, buy live, you will get more out of it and appreciate greater returns in your efforts, both now and later. I get the tiniest delay when I arm my keyboard with samples which is a major problem if trying to record a beat on time, wtf? I have a feeling that ableton can do what I want it to do, stick it out, or not? Is there a better tutorial for writing beats or glitching sampled loops? Then a friend got me a copy of ableton live and I found out that I can create all the same sounds with this as well (and ableton has a much more user friendly feel) but of course I am running into problems here as the tutorials are very helpful but dont go in depth enough to the questions I have.
RENOISE TUTORIAL CODE
I want to make my music super glitchy but with renoise its entering code and such and really doesnt seem all that user friendly. I'd been messing around with renoise seeing as the people who's music I like the most use it (enduser, ventian snares) Although I have run into a million questions and have been sorting through the answers on the renoise forums as well.
RENOISE TUTORIAL SOFTWARE
I only recently started using software within the last year or so (mostly dj'd and used drum machines) and recently got ableton 6.
