Scaler 2 Workflow | Developing a Musical Idea

SOS Ableton Live Certified Tutor and musician Tristan Malloch demonstrates how he uses Scaler 2 in Ableton Live to develop a simple chord progression into a fully fledged track. Tristan starts with a chord progression and uses suggest mode with minimise voicing in the Scaler 2.6 update to expand on his chord progression and then add elements such as bass and melody using Scaler suggestions. Tristan also touches on many tips and tricks including recording chords on the iPad version and desktop version, clip envelopes and MIDI CC messages in Ableton Live, triggering hardware synths and adding drums and side-chain compression.
