Hi there, If you’re into Bonobo, Parra for Cuva or Ben Böhmer, this could be something for you. I recently released an electronic LIVE SET on YouTube, filmed in front of a beautiful lake in Germany called Bergheider See. It would truly mean a lot if you would give it a try and give me Feedback. Thank you ☺️🫶

Hi there,

I'm currently playing around a lot with my live portable electro setup which consists of a Roland MC-707 + Launchpad Pro + a powerbank + a portable speaker (~5cm x 5cm x 20cm)

This setup is small enough that I can throw everything in a bag pack and go play at parties.

However I'm hitting the limits of the speaker I'm carrying around : the Tribit StormBox

• Output power: 2 x 12W
• Driver size: 2 x Φ45mm Passive radiator

Requirements :

• Auxiliary input
• Portable size (has to fit with everything else in a backpack)
• Budget max: 300€

Do you guys have any recommendation ?

Hi there,

I'm looking for the gear to go DAW-less while keeping a similar workflow than I have spent the last months designing. In essence :

1. building 1 part of the song live (let's say: kick+bassline+synth line)
2. enable randomly toggled FX on these tracks to keep things entertaining
3. use headphone cue to build the next part (bassline+synth line+something else), without the audience hearing it
4. build up and use the drop to replace previous segment by the next
5. here and there liven up things with acapella samples

This workflow can then be repeated indefinitely to perform hours long sets.

3. is the tricky part though. Seems to me multiple stereo outputs and routing capabilities will be required to make it work.

I'd like to have a single machine capable of that whole wrofklow.

Any idea ?

Hi everyone!

I hope this kind of post is allowed here. I'm doing a little project where I go to different subreddits of music genres and I ask the members what the best album of that genre is. After this, I listen to the album that got the most upvotes after 24 hours and write my thoughts about it (I will write this as a comment under this one, so if you want to read it, make sure to check back in 2-3 days. This won't be a professional review btw. I don't know anything about music theory so it's just gonna be the thoughts of a random guy). The list I'm following is Wikipedia's list of the most popular music genres in a randomized order. I'm planning to listen to one album per day and this time the genre is Livetronica. So please recommend me an album in the comments. It could be the best one in your opinion, your personal favourite, or the album that best represents this genre according to you, but please, only submit one album. If you submit more than one in your comment, it won't count (If you really want to submit more, do it in separate comments). LPs are preferred, but EPs and mixtapes are also acceptable, even compilations and live albums if they're not too long. I know absolutely nothing about this genre so I'm going in blind.

This is the 108th day of me doing this. If you want to see what the previous days were, check out my post history.

Thanks to anyone who recommends an album.

​

TL;DR: I listen to a new genre every day, so recommend me one album and I'll listen to the most upvoted one and write my thoughts about it later.

Hi there,

I'm into electronic music performance and I am looking for ideas of gear to complete my live DAW setup. I play mainly techno but I do bit of everything. My ideal of live performance is Giolì & Assia.

My criteria are :

1. hands-on, inspiring, playful interfaces (ie. more than a simple midi keyboard)
2. portable: everything should hold inside my 35L backpack for gigs
3. not necessarily MIDI-only device although I do have plenty of VSTi to leverage

Current setup:

• Ableton Live : Predefined tracks (some with VSTi, some with one-shot samples, some with loops, some with rises), FX on tracks, DJ-style FX on master track, a bunch of Max4Live devices and a lot of CC mapping
• Arturia Beatstep Pro : Perfect to generate loops of drums and melodies. Can do arpeggios too.
• Arturia Beatstep : Good for any kind of CC control over tracks plugins
• Launchpad Pro mk2 : Good for Ableton scene launching and mixing. Can also finger-drumming, play riffs thanks to "Scale mode", but no easy "Chord mode" unfortunately
• Leap Motion + Geco software : Very good for expressive control of FX/VSTi
• An audio interface with 2 stereo outputs for headphone cueing
• Possibly some inline instruments: Guitar, ukulele

What I'm trying to do is a hybrid setup that would make it possible for me to play "anything" on the spot, whether it's a live techno impro, a lo-fi track or a cover of an existing song like Giolì & Assia incorporate inside of their sets. Everything should be improvised, nothing prerecorded, no backtrack, the only exception being for the loaded samples but i'm going for "generic" ones usable in all contexts.

I think of it like a framework. It has a lot do to with the Ableton "template" i'm setting up but also with finding the right hardware controlers-and-other-things.

I'm open to any idea. Here are some of my thoughts :

• I keep hearing good things about Elektron hardware as well as Synthstrom Audible Deluge but I have no idea how I could make use of them
• I'm thinking about upgrading my Launchpad either for a more recent one or a Push (but pricey for gigs) to get chord possibilities (I'm not allergic to midi keyboards but it's usually bulky and not as fun to use)
• I don't know what to think of Groove Boxes like Akai MPC and NI Maschine

Looking forward to read you
