Ableton Push Dj Template

As wonderful as Push is for both Studio Production and Live Performance, it is fair to say that it's not tailored to those who want to use a traditional DJing setup within Live. Controllers like the Novation Twitch (which has the traditional DJing layout along with a Live Mapping Template) is much more suited to this purpose.

Serato DJ + Ableton Push (Advanced Midi Mapping) DJ_Esco 7:11 AM - 15 March, 2015 I noticed many are setting up their MIDI controllers of choice using the built in feature within Serato DJ. Each Ableton® template comes expertly mixed and mastered allowing you to learn the latest techniques and tricks. Dj friendly club banger. Abletunes enables.

However, with a little bit of outside-the-box thinking, there are many ways to turn Push into an adequate controller for the modern day DJ. Basic DJ Setup using Push’s User Mode Push’s Session mode will obviously come in very useful when DJing, however you may also want to make use of its User mode to map some traditional DJ Parameters to Push, for instance EQ controls. Let's take a closer look. The first thing you need to be aware of is how to configure the MIDI settings in Live correctly when using the User Mode on Push.

In the MIDI sync tab in Live preferences, switch both the Remote and Track buttons for the In and Out User ports for Push on. Create a DJ template to suit your type of performance. As I want to replicate the traditional DJ layout I have created three audio tracks or ‘Decks’ and placed an EQ plug-in on each one. Start of by mapping these EQ parameters to Push. Luckily there are nine rotary controls on the top of Push to map the three EQs of each of the three decks to. Enter User mode on Push by pressing the User button.

Now map the first three knobs on the row to the low, mid and high of Deck A while in Lives mapping mode. Continue by mapping the next three knobs to Deck B’s EQ and the final three knobs to Deck C’s. You can now access the EQ parameters of the three decks simultaneously by simply pressing User mode.

Otherwise you would have to trawl through each tracks’ devices separately to find the EQ parameters. Another parameter that you will need control over is of course a crossfader. Unfortunately Push doesn't have any faders to act as one. However, its touchstrip can be mapped to any parameter in Live. Enter mapping mode in Live, select the crossfader and move the touchstrip while still in User mode on Push. You now have an excellent way of fading between your tracks while DJing. One important thing to note is that because the touchstrip usually controls pitch bend so it will snap back to the middle position when let go.

The way to get around this is simple, however. When you are about to let go off the touchstrip/crossfader press the User button to exit User mode and the crossfade position will remain in the same position when you take your finger off.

Stem DJ Template - Tutorial 1 - Basic Layout, Audio Routing, Deck Assigments & Crossfader Options. This how I would go about making a DJ template in Ableton Live if I were going to be using Stems Instead of Mixdowns!

If you are going to be using Ableton Live to DJ I hope you are doing more than just blending two perfectly warped tracks together. That would be lazy.

And totally boring. I suggest using stem style sets. In this tutorial I am going to show how to make a 2 deck DJ style mixing template where each 'deck' has 4 channels, or more, where you can add your stems and other elements. The ultimate goal here would be using stems from your own original tunes and mixing & improvising with them live, but if you aren't quite their yet, in terms of original material, you can do what I do. I use sample packs. Nicki minaj queen album rar. In fact, for this tutorial series I reached out to Singomakers to grab a couple of their new packs to use for demonstration purposes. When searching for good packs to use in this type Live Performance / DJ set you want to look for high quality samples, MIDI, and 'construction kits'.

Construction kits will make your life sooo much easier and many packs come with them these days. Not only that, but some of the kits are killer tracks! Usually they are called 'Construction Kits', but some time they are called Multi Kits, or Multi Tracks, Full Songs. Watch the video tutorial *full written tutorial below The Template Tutorial - Getting Started Make sure you are in session view.

Then create 10 audio channels. Color the first four tracks one color, the last four tracks another color, and each of the middle tracks gets their own color. Then set out to label each track.
