Novation London // Learn: Synthesis - Hardware Synths in Ableton Live

From creative performance techniques to expressive sound design, our Novation specialists and friends guide you through the vast world of synthesis.

Kit and James from electronic collective Dagga Domes take you through how they deconstruct a studio recording and prepare it to be played out live.

The main aim of the talk is to showcase our techniques of how we deconstruct a studio track and reconstruct it into a live performance.

This seminar will cover:

• Chopping up samples and playing them live on launch-pads
• Effects chains through Ableton Live as a live tool: both for live synths and vocals
• Making synth patches using Peak and Bass Station II to replace parts in the original track
• Integration of the Novation / Maxx 909 style sequencer to sequence live
• Routing live synths through Ableton Live
