unreleased piano music + MIDI file

how i write songs on the piano as a non-pianist
hi!I've recently been trying to write music on the piano as it's a pain in the butt to have to program notes/velocities/etc. for a natural sounding piano.So here's a video on some tips and techniques on how I've recently been writing progressions/recording piano, as a person who has no prior experience on the piano. Sorry to my fellow pianists in advance for the piano-cringe conten...

hi!the long awaited (maybe?) violin jams 2 is here!the folder includes 6 self recorded, mostly unprocessed violin jams + 20 variations of the jams granularly processed (with ableton granulator, I'll make a video covering that soon!)violin jams 2 is a bit more focused on structure and composition compared to violin jams 1 (which was more of a random swarm of sounds), and so the file names have ...
Dynamic EQing (sort of) in Ableton
hi!Pro-Q's dynamic EQ is awesome - I use it everyday, but it's not exactly the most wallet-friendly plugin.So here's a way to approach dynamic EQing (sort of) using only stock Ableton devices without having to pay extra.Also the racks shown in the video are attached below, it might be easier to understand the setup by fiddling with it yourself. the racks should work with Live 10++!lmk ...
MIDI Frequency LFO m4l device
hi!my good friend hirihiri gave me the idea to whip up an LFO device that changes it's frequency correspondently to the incoming MIDI note frequencyfor example, if you play an A4 in MIDI, the LFO will oscillate at 440hz.the little menu under 'Rel LFO Freq' changes the frequency of the oscillator:'normal' plays the same frequency as the MIDI note frequencyso if you play A4, the ...

how to make a phritz style drop
hi!here's a quick video on how I usually go about making house dropsthis is a 30min uncut video because I thought I should show the whole process, but to sort of break it down in words,0.

limeade project file!
