  1. we are back,
  2. gonna show you the basics of Mableton live and really
  3. just show you the we've mostly covered the basics.
  4. Um but we will um show you the little quirks to it. So um the video won't be as long.
  5. Um
  6. but
  7. basically got everything now,
  8. you might be wondering
  9. how do you live loop?
  10. I have not figured that out yet, but I know how to loop. Okay, so on a bolton,
  11. pull up my screen.
  12. Here, we go, on a Bolton live here, we see these circles.
  13. Right, okay, so let's say, I want to start with a simple beat.
  14. I told you last time that I loved the 909 core kit
  15. I don't want.
  16. Okay, um
  17. so 1909 cork it, I love that one. It's just 909 cork it, my bad.
  18. Um and that right there, my favorite one out of them. All right now.
  19. So
  20. um all of these uh there's a lot of stuff I want to worry about this.
  21. Don't worry about it, don't worry,
  22. don't worry, don't.
  23. All right now um
  24. this right here you see this arrow
  25. very
  26. very, very, very important.
  27. That is what controls your whole volume. This little dude right here.
  28. So it's really important.
  29. You might be like, oh the numbers go up apparent, like no,
  30. that you see that there's a darker dash,
  31. I don't know if you can see it since it's kind of small,
  32. but there's a darker dash around here, that means negative.
  33. So you don't want to do it.
  34. zero isn't the loudest you can get if you move it up above zero,
  35. it's going to increase the sound.
  36. If you move it like 20,
  37. see that
  38. Now I'm gonna move it to negative 24. Can't even hear it. It's
  39. so I recommend keeping it at zero or going above.
  40. So I'm gonna keep it at um going above right now
  41. because I'm going to start out with a simple beat.
  42. Now let's say you have multiple tracks. Oh and I did not go over this last video
  43. let's say okay you only have one track or you only have two tracks.
  44. You know how to delete audio tracks but how do you get another one?
  45. Okay so you right click
  46. and you're gonna see this saying insert midi track when you right click.
  47. It's gonna add sadly if you keep on going let's
  48. do this.
  49. It says the tracks limited.
  50. You won't be able to see it on here but it
  51. says right here that the tracks limited is limited to eight.
  52. This version of Lives, so
  53. we can't really do that which is kind of sad. So we're just gonna start out with two.
  54. Uh Just the normal. Um So we start out with two.
  55. Remember don't really mind the audio fix?
  56. Um And these are on So that's good but let's just say you just want one track to play.
  57. Okay so
  58. um
  59. here I'll get over that, I'll do that later. Um
  60. So um the 909.
  61. Um You see the circles. Yes shapes
  62. past kindergarten. Anyway so these shapes are very important when it's square.
