This is an Ableton Live Pack (.alp) for use with Ableton Live. I created the set with Live 7 and I’m not sure if it’s backwards compatible. The set file should be, but I do make heavy use of some of the new features of 7:
I’m having fun with my new copy of Live 7. I think it was definitely worth the student discounted price I paid for it, and I will surely use it for educational purposes only.
Here’s a little test song I did mainly with the Cascade Fat Head.
Drums: MS Stereo — MXL 991 as Mid and Fat Head as side. In front of and about two feet above kit. About a foot right (low tom side) of snare to try and stereo image the toms a bit more. My high tom is right above the snare, and MS accurately depicts that. SM57 on snare and some cheap Nady kick mic in front of the kick. I was more concerned with the overhead sound. No EQ on Fat Head, scooped out some high mids on the MXL.
Electric Guitar (both): Fat Head about 6” from speaker, on-axis.
Acoustic Guitar: MS Stereo with Fat Head and MXL 991.
Bass: Fat Head about 4” from speaker, on-axis. Rounded off low frequencies at 100hz.
Tambourine: Fat Head. Duhhhh.
There are no effects on any tracks, save for some EQing I talked about above and light compression on the drum bus and master track.
I talked about the Fat Head a little more in my original post.
