Skin. Not only is it our body's largest organ, it's now the latest addition to The Loop Loft's offering of fine instruments. Ever wondered what goosebumps sound like? Does the skin of a newborn resonate more than that of a 34 year old man who's never worn sunscreen? How much bass can our cheeks really produce? Does fist bumping sound as douchey as it looks? These were the types of questions that were keeping us up at night, so we set out to record the very thing that keeps us all together: our integumentary system. Fill out my online form.
Skin.  Not only is it our body's largest organ, it's now the latest addition to The Loop Loft's offering of fine instruments.  Ever wondered what goosebumps sound like?   Does the skin of a newborn resonate more than that of a 34 year old man who's never worn sunscreen? How much bass can our cheeks really produce?  Does fist bumping sound as douchey as it looks? These were the types of questions that were keeping us up at night, so we set out to record the very thing that keeps us all together: our integumentary system.

Dry skin.  Oily skin.  Clean-shaven skin.  Three-day-scruff skin.  They all have unique sonic qualities... and we captured them in stunning, 24 bit, 48 khz detail.  This is not just another sample library, it's a full-on loop collection served up in an Ableton Live Pack. 

Normally, such an eclectic and innovative collection of loops and samples would cost tens, if not hundreds of dollars, but for a limited time, The Sound of Skin is available for FREE. That's right. Just enter your email address above and instantly receive a download link.  Who's got goosebumps now?

Not just drum loops, but entire, song-length performances of multitracked drum sessions.... that's what Complete Takes is all about.  In this video, I give you a look at Complete Takes Vol 2 and work with the drum sessions inside of Logic, Ableton Live and Reason 6.  

Working with quality, live multitrack drums has never been easier.  Literally, just drag and drop the files into your session and go.  Check out the video for an in-depth look:

In this video I give you a quick (well, 10 minute...) overview of our newest Partner Instrument with Ableton, Hip Hop Drums.  This tour focuses on the audio clips, audio effects, and building a track with a mix of drum loops. The next video will take a closer look at the MIDI clips, drum racks, samples and construction kits.

Video: Multitrack Drums in Ableton + Free Template

Share this post Twitter Facebook Tumblr Email Posted December 09, 2011 in Ableton, Arranging, Multitrack

In some of my past videos, I've shown you how to work with multitrack drums inside of Logic and manipulate loops in Reason 6, but today my focus is on Ableton.  In this video, I utilize the Felt & Wires Multitrack Session to explain my workflow for:

  • setting up the session before loading the audio files 
  • getting a quick rough mix
  • recording a live arrangement from session view
  • grouping the tracks to clean things up
And as a bonus, I've provided the same template I use in the as a free download.  If you own the Felt & Wires Session, or any other of our Multitrack Sessions, this will be a great starting point for setting up your tracks in Ableton.
