When the bottom clip of a group is playing, the next clip instruction triggers the top clip of the group again, which means that each clip in this group will play for two bars, completing an eight bar cycle before starting over. To quickly configure the same follow actions for an entire clip group, first select all the clips in the group using the Shift key now you can program your follow actions for all selected clips simultaneously.įor this first example, I've simply taken four drum clips and told them each to play the next clip in the group after two bars. Let's get to it then, shall we? Cascading Clip Sequence However, each numerical field can be set from zero to 999, allowing for all sorts of odd fractional ratios worth experimenting with. If the left action is set to two and the right action is set to one, the left action will occur twice as often. When either of the action menus' probability is set to zero, it will never be triggered. Among the producer community active online these days, Valhalla DSP is considered one of the best plugin developers for reverb specifically and with Valhalla’s popular Supermassive, that reputation holds high. But why are there two identical follow action menus side by side?īeneath each of these menus is a numerical field that determines a probability that the follow action selected above it will be taken-so rather than leave selections to be completely randomized, you can create your own weighted gambles between two specific options. Compatibility: Win, Mac, 64-bit, AU, AAX, VST. This already opens up a world of possibilities to program intricate sequences, randomize playback, or create a balance of the two by injecting randomized fills into steady patterns. Before going further, it's worth mentioning that follow actions behave identically for MIDI clips as they do for audio clips. In the picture below, we have two groups of clips on a single audio track: the purple clips are in one group below, separated by an empty clip slot, the blue clips constitute a separate clip group. What do I mean by a group of clips? A group of clips are vertically contiguous-in other words, direct neighbors above and below one another, not separated by an empty clip slot. Configuring Clips for Follow Actionsįirst thing you need to know is that follow actions can only be programmed to control a group of clips on a single track. Did you know you can program instructions into Live's Session view clips that will tell those clips to play for a specified period of time before playing another carefully specified clip-or a randomly selected one? In this tutorial, we'll explore six exciting usages of Live's under-utilized but highly powerful follow actions for use in both performance and production. Here we bring you 11 tips and tricks aimed at helping you to work smarter and more creatively, and to get the most out of all of Live 9s new features.
