How To Use Return Tracks- Ableton Quick Tip

Thanks so much! This was so clear and so useful!

Why don't you use groups? The method that you showed is not entirely correct, since you do not process the original signal, but simply overlay the processed signal on top of the raw one.

Don’t groups do the same thing ?

Great video! Very informative

Very clear and concise. Thank you!

The most wholesome person in a music production tutorial! Thx for this helpful explanation man.

Thanks for the tutorial! How about the volume of the track in the final master? Because in your video you didn't change the Output Type of your track, which means that the audio is amplified by the Send to the return track. Essentially you have Audio Track --> Master but also Audio Track --> Return Track --> Master . Also, how about the possibility of selecting "Sends Only" for the Output Type of the Audio Track and simply maximizing the Send volume of the track, so that everything comes from the Return Track? Thank you!

THIS WAS BRILLIANT I AM SO GRATEFUL

got stuck, you helped me so thank you very much

Is there a way to unsticky the return tracks so that it isn't always showing like that?

Love this man! HUGE HELP

Best explanation

Subbed. Straight to the point how we like it.

hi sir, i hope u and yr family are safe, sir i want to learn how to add reverb while u record your own vocal (in the headphone u get that effect only not to be applied that in original track) in ableton live, please sir reply, i have searched a lot but didnt get any suitable video regarging these.

I would love you to do a video on making a great vocal chain - what are the considerations and what do we need to make vocals sound great

An excellent simple explanation - very well done

Thank you so much man. You have no idea how much easier you just made my life.

Clear cut!

Great video!! But I have one question... I just had an H delay in one of my return tracks, and I exported it in audio but I don’t hear my delay feedbacks, do you know how to fix this issue

This doesn't explain the volume add you get with return tracks though.

Thanks for this! This Is pretty much what I've been doing when putting tracks into a group and putting the chain on the group. Just wondering if there is any difference in this method to using a return..? I'm guessing it's just being able to dial in the DB

wow this makes so much more sense

helpful / thanx :)

thanks for the video I was struggling so much to understand this

Thanks for this!
Why not using Groups for that purpose?
They seem to be more practical, are they less efficient?

Dude... This is awesome. Your phrase is really really good. You are an articulate speaker. You should keep shooting more videos!

best explanation i could find, thank u so much

Tqsm

Wouldn't the same thing be accomplished by putting your vocal chain on a bus? You still avoid having multiple instances of the same chain.
I'm trying to understand reasons to use sends that are unique to sends. I know a lot of people set up reverbs and delays on sends, but I'm not certain why. I can see perhaps the use of having a send for something that you use periodically throughout a session. But I suppose technically you could automate that given plugin being on or off.

Best video I found just plain and simple thanks!

@siahwya - When are u going to make more vids again? this coronavirus got me next to ableton more

Very articulate goodness thank u

fire

does it work when you export the track?

Well done, thanks for your time and effort!

Thanks for putting this together!

Good job boi
