I've just learned the basics of Ableton7 and am now looking for tricks and refined techniques for remixing and programing tracks. I haven't noticed a thread like this, so if it exists, I apologize in advance!
If anyone wants to share their methods, show how they're working, we can post links for downloading our collected sets here. Not that I need to explain to anyone here, but collecting the set first will ensure there aren't any missing samples/loops, etc and that we'll be able to see the full set. Using sendspace.com or similar free file sharing sites, folks can offer up what they're doing with links for download.
Sound like a good idea?
I need help learning, so it sounds great to me!! I don't have many VST's yet, so that could be an issue, but I think it's worthwhile anyway... If you use a particular VST or plugin, please list it when you post your set. That'll help ensure we each have the tools to open the files, right?
If you have suggestions for how to make this work better, please be sure to post them. I'm a total novice!
Cheers,
Ian

Re: Share/Post Collected Ableton Sets Here (.als files with collected samples, zipped)
Thu, April 17, 2008 - 3:43 AMin the "manage file/project" section of the "File" menu you can collect projects into .ALP files - ALP (live pack) is Ableton's compressed portability format. It's lossless encoding and you can drop them right into Live. -

Sun, April 20, 2008 - 7:49 PMThere are about a gagillion tips and tricks on Ableton's own tips n' tricks forum....too many to list here. Ableton wants you to succeed with their software and their own online tutorials are quite helpful no matter what your experience level is.
