Slynk! You rock son!... I love the way you explain this DAW... this video was recorded 6 year ago and now 2024 nothing has change.. The best tutorial in warping and time streatch on KZfaq. Thanks bro!!

So glad Ableton posted your vocoder vid. Best videos, clings to my brain. Thanks

I must admit, I don't normally comment on stuff but this was so helpful. Thanks for all the videos!

Brilliant video, my friend! Thanks for the solid rundown! :D

Great tutorial my friend. I respect you for sharing knowledge with others as you learn yourself, because knowledge is power. Takes a big person to do that ✊ Keep Rockin!

Amazing video, thanks Evan! Keep it up :)

Dude glad to see you back! Thanks for another killer tutorial.

Fantastic tutorial! I'm transitioning from using Reason to Ableton, and have just learned about the launch and randomization/quantization settings. Now I need to dive into warping and the settings for timestretching, and this video created a guide for me by which I feel I don't need to see any other tutorials on timestretching in Ableton. Thanks a LOT!

Slynk you're a great teacher, subbed.

Amazing video Slynk, like everything you do!, thanks!

Top notch vid! I find ableton a joy to use but I've had issues getting my head around warping. Nice one

Amazing video dude. Answered nearly every question I had vis a vis time stretching and warping. Moving transients was giving me extreme headaches. Thank you!

Great tutorial, the best on the subject I've seen. Keep it up!

Awesome video! Perfect explanation and fun too. Thanks man!

Thanks a lot man. This was a great video demonstrating all of the warping features. big up!

Thanks for taking the time to explain this dude.

Good looking out on this tutorial. Cleared up some issues with warping. Abelton is

your channel is awesome, great explaining. Thanx so much and keep up the good work!

Great job! Learned so much 👍

Such a killer video. Thank you X 1,000,000. This cleared up a LOT of confusion.

Nicely laid out! Plus, the mention of being able to use not just one mode for a single clip is brilliant! Gettin ready for the pros...

Thanx Slynk! I just started using this technique for a remix contest. This helped a lot.

the way you explain this stuff is great. thank you

Good video!

Awesome video man. Thanks for the walk through! Liked, commented and subbed!

Excellent tutorial. Really explained a lot. Thank you! :)

Great info, thanks man!

Really good video! Thanks for the time and effort!

Still very useful 5 years later. Thanks for the refresher Slynk.

Loved this one. Brilliant.

I love screwing around with Groove Templates. Applying grooves on different parts and places and experimenting with them for different feel and subtle nuances. Definitely helps. Been diving hardcore into Ableton recently. All making a lot more sense now.

Thank you. 🙏 Best explanation I've seen of a commonly misunderstood aspect of Live.

Good tutorial :) I made some extra notes people might find useful: - Tones mode is dynamic and changes in realtime based on the signal (sample). The Grain size is just an average in that case. In Texture mode the grain size is the exact value used per grain in milliseconds (unless you add flux randomisation). * Tip: Grain size can be misused to make crazy formant sounds especially when it's modulated. You kinda touched on it in the video. I tend to set the transpose at least an octave or two up and the grain size to ~130 and have quick sliding modulations. I think this works better on vocals and synths as opposed to drums but it's all fair game. - Beats mode with either of the looping settings will only loop the latter half of each segment (from the closest zero crossing) - not the entire segment. * Tip: You can place a bunch of transient markers (or warp markers) near each other throughout the sample and use a high transpose setting to get cool retrig/stutters that sound reminiscent of Infected Mushroom's stuff. If you don't want to change the original pitch You can use Complex to transpose shift your source sample down first and render or consolidate that then transpose the result back up using the the beats transient stutter method. - You can use Quantize on the audio the same as you would with a midi clip which should speed up lining up things like the guitar riff used in the video. There will still be minor changes to make after like shift-moving those offset markers that Live didn't get right but overall should be faster I think. Cheers for the note on ZPlane's input, I always assumed the Complex modes were secret Ableton in-house stuff. I can read up about them some more now :)

Awesome video, thanks man !

Excellent explanation! Thorough and entertaining. Subbed 👍😉

Right on man, thanks for the class slynk, seriously helped thank you..

Great vids slynk. I've been using live for a couple of years and i'm stuck doing things mostly the same way and not exploring all the possibilities. This one gave me inspiration to start warping the shit out of things ;D thanks!

This is gold, thank you!

Slynk!!!! You became my favorite KZfaqr in less than a week! You do a perfect job of explaining things. I never feel bored or overwhelmed. You hit the sweet spot of explaining and pacing to match how I learn. Thank you so much! Do you have some kind of Patreon or way I can support you?

dude ur awsome most to the point and explanatory tutorials I have came across give yourself a pat on the back for me because my hand doesn't want to fit threw the computer box screen majigi... thanx mate!!!

was trying to figure out how to warp my drum samples thank you so much this solved my issues!

You're a G. Thanks for the knowledge

dude you are a master at Ableton. learned a lot from these tutorials.

Really interesting thanks! You the man!

Great vid! Learned a lot, thanks

Awesome tutorial. Never thought I'd hear Fourier transforms come up in an Ableton tutorial but makes total sense B-) Nice one Slynk!

Awesome vid.....and dam, i've been a warping amateur using complex all the time. Great help, thanks for sharing your wisdom!!

Super helpful. Thanks!

great tutorial. straight to the point and very informative. cheers!

reaaally awesome explanation

Thanks a lot! Especially for the shift marker move thing. AWESOME! ;)

great info, i've been producing for a while now, and i'm learning a lot of new things here

thanks man! exactly what I needed.

Thank you for this! Super cool video! A+++

amazing video . got lots of info. i will subscribe thanks.

Thanks, I always wondered about this.

Man, genius tutorial easy and efficient

Great video!

super good! thank you!

thanks man still helping me out

such a good tutorial. thank you

Thanks so much for all your tutorials dude! They've helped me so much and consistently inspire me to learn more. Also, you're set at rabbits eat lettuce this year was off the chain. Much love.

Very helpful video.

Tnx man, awesome tutorial!

fANTASTIC LESSON, THANKS MUCH MY FRIEND!

Thank you, Slynk!

Just discovered your channel.... Your videos are excellent!!! Thanks for your time and effort! [SUBSCRIBED]

Great video. Thank you

Thank you very much

Dude...once again, thank you.

excellent tutorial, thank you :)

your videos are the best

Great video man! now time to get to work :)

INTRO = 🔥

Thanks for the dope tutorial Slynk

Another qualiteh tut, thumbs up (also guilty of using complex too many times cause I didn't fully understand beats, thank you sensei)

that was great thank you

Excellent ;) thanks a lot !

Thank you 😊

Nice tutorial!

Thank you sir! Cheers!

Nice. Thank's a lot !

Thank you so much

A great option a bit out of warp (for short loops) is slicing to midi and changing the tempo. works on a lot of cases :)

The only video on youtube I could find that clarifying how it actually works! Thank you! Hasn't Complex/Complex Pro got improved in Live 10? I was wondering how to make a proper DJ mix in Ableton Live, if long tracks cannot be stretched without damaging the audio, unless it's re-pitch mode It seems warping algorithms in Serato or Rekordbox are much more polite and accurate to the audio... But if there's a need to make a non-live mix, what should I do?

You should be a teacher you do a great job at explaining the points you're trying to explain. Great Job

Maaan your sound is so clean I'm jelly.

this is a top notch tutorial i've been using cubase 8 pro for a while now and i'm seeing some major differences in what each can do well and for the guitar timing, cubase has an incredibly intuitive iterative quantize mode that basically does all the manual work for you without destroying the sound too much i love ableton's fx chain and the sampler but in terms of convenience, it falls a bit short also, i really hope i could solo and arm tracks with my keyboard instead of having to do everything with my mouse :(

thanks man !

Shoutout to the guy who made this video. I have zero usage for this knolage as I don't use Ableton or make music or edit audio in any way but you did a great job explaining everything in great detail. Also your glasses are rad as fuck

Hey Slynk, very nice tutorial but you have mistaken the definition of tones and texture algorithms. You basically swapped them :) To clarify a bit: ''tones'' works best with monophonic sounds (i.e bass, vocals, leads) and ''texture'' works best with polyphonic content (i.e pads, ambiences or drones). All the rest is very good, thanks for going deep in explaining algorithms, especially with the visual demonstration you did with the audio clip! Cheers

Great and clear :-))

Thanks bro

dayum, i didnt know where ableton get this alg.! nice bro finally i know what complex pro does.. (e.g. envelope)

Great video, thank you! What was the part where you applied the groove to the guitar sample. Was that the drum track?

Sweet baby jeebus, that transient envelope setting in Beats Mode is amazing! How did I miss that? Thanks man

Thank you.

Oi its slynko dynko. Great video

thank you
