Positive Negative | Live Performance [Ambient / Atmospheric Music] with Ableton Push

These are difficult times. We're all stuck somewhere. We have to find the positives. I'm taking this time to make more music. Stay at home, stay safe, look after people around you, and listen to your dreams, this is the time to look for positives amongst the negatives. Now on Spotify / Apple, Bandcamp and others: https://spoti.fi/2yFzuqP / https://apple.co/2yC5gVv / https://andrisoren.bandcamp.com/track/positive-negative

A 100% live performance, using Push 2, Ableton Live, some samples I recorded of a choir practicing, and synthesisers native to Ableton Live.

Thanks for listening.
Andri

I strongly strongly believe in supporting local shops. Please buy local if you can. If you're buying online, I've put links below, if you use those you pay exactly the same amount but I'll receive a small commission (at no extra cost to you). This helps me make more videos. Thanks!

Speakers: Genelec 8340AWM with GLM room microphone kit
Buy local :)

Headphones:
Beyerdynamic 990 pro (open-backed) for clarity and comfort,
Amazon.com: https://amzn.to/38uydyR
Amazon.de: https://amzn.to/2W6TfBp
(note the higher ohm rating, meaning these need to be driven at a louder volume - just good to know)

Beyerdynamic 770 pro (closed-backed) for bass and sound-isolation.

In-ear monitors:
Shure Shure SE535-CL (which I love, and the lower models are very good too)

Videos from 2018 and earlier:
Macbook Late 2012, i7 2.6 (quad core) non-retina, 16GB RAM, 2x custom-installed 500GB SSDs (get one, seriously, it will change your life). This computer has been just amazing, and for me proof of the (generally) incredibly long life-span of Apple computers (I repeat, in my experience). It now backs up my data and acts as a video-capture computer.

iMac 27" Late 2009. So, so old, but it still works as a second monitor, using a (carefully researched) displayport cable. Just fantastic that some iMacs have this capability, and again something I appreciate as it means I don't have to throw it away.

Soundcard: Scarlett 6i6 V1 - very happy with this, provides two headphones outputs, important for using cue in Ableton.
Amazon.com: https://amzn.to/3aGXUhs. (8i6 V3)
Amazon.de: https://amzn.to/2TQOoBc (8i6 V3)

Speakers: I don't recommend what I had back then at all! I would recommend looking at something like the iLoud speakers (now available in white :D).

In short, buy the very best you can afford - you won't regret it. Shop local if you can, or support them now and then, they give us invaluable help and advice.
