Organise Your Samples

In this tutorial, Ableton Certified Trainer and Live-Courses.com instructor Rob Jones shows you an easy way to organize all of your samples together using nested Instrument Racks within a Drum Rack. Use macros to audition different drum sounds and find the kicks, claps, hi-hats and other sounds that best fit together for the pattern you're working on.
