The Bridge
The Bridge Posted on: 13.09.2011 by Breanne Penge Anyone else using it?I've had a few good goes with it and it's damn fun. As a pretty experienced Ableton user, I decided initially to go with dual monitors so as to have the full Ableton GUI open as well as my serato interface; sans Ableton selected. It's so flexible, having the best of both worlds, TT's and controller gear. Almost overwhelming. I would be interested to hear how others are using it. My basic setup was using Ableton to control a selection of short loops and acapellas, and use some Ableton FX over these. Serato, the usual track mixing / cue points and SP-6 sampler. I have 3 banks of controls on my Trigger Finger and can swap between 1 bank of Loop / Cue points / FX controls....1 bank of SP-6 sampler controls complete with gain adjustments....and 1 bank of Ableton controls for starting/stopping loops, and using FX. Anyone elsse on to this stuff? | |

Just switching between a couple of clips, bit of fx (Tarakeths Super Luper) and some scratch in serato. I keep changing my Trigger Finger / serato mapping...honestly if someone wants it still, I'll post it up but you'll really want to get Enigma and start putting together your own |

| Jefferey Ings 14.02.2012 | Thanks JPrime, I'd like to see those maps. It's great to hear somebody mention the Trigger Finger these days. So many people still use and love them. Yes, I have been believeing about Twitch vs. an APC40 but currently with my limited (putting it modestly) knowledge of Ableton I don't want to invest in a controller yet. My thought process; I sold my SL1 when I got my TTM57. The result, I have no hardware connected to my laptop when I'm sitting at my desk. So I have to unplug my mixer from my dj setup or standing at my decks for production work (#FirstWorldProblems). So I was considering Twitch as a "sit down" solution for learning about Ableton and the Bridge or editing beat grids and warping tracks. When I'm ready I'll go whole hog, hence avoiding the temptation to buy a launchpad (no offense to users) even with it's relatively low buy in. That's why I'm most curious as to how you've mapped it for the bridge specifically. If you want to share your Ableton template that would be appreciated. I bought Ableton for the bridge haven't really capitalized on it the way I'd like to yet. If it's poor form to ask for templates let me know, I'm too new to production to know otherwise. Cheers, |
| Breanne Penge 14.02.2012 | Sure, I'll post up my Trigger Finger maps toevening
... However - I mentioned that in another thread I'd hooked up my Twitch to Ableton using the Novation Live Transport....and the ableton mapping they supplied...then fired up the Bridge/serato, and omg....it's so powerful. O_O |
| Jefferey Ings 14.02.2012 | So far I've mostly used the bridge for Mixtape, but I'd love to know more about your trigger finger midi maps JPrime. I'm ALWAYS remapping my trigger finger so I'd be curious how you have yours mapped out. I'm currently using 2 x Tech 1210's, TTM57, Novation Dicer, M-Audio Trigger finger, MBP 2011 750gig hd 8mb ram 2.2ghz. |

| Breanne Penge 27.01.2012 | Wow - it was ridiculously easy to set it all up. Got the Twitch Live Translator, downloaded an Ableton mapping/project. Fired up serato / Ableton and everything was working ace I just need to wrap my head around this Ableton template and I'll see if I can't produce a small set....I was going to make a Bridge video ages ago anyway.... |

| Johnsie Kingrea 27.10.2011 | How does the Bridge bypass the timecode signal from the mixer or a Rane soundcard? I tried doing this setup with a DJM 900 selected as the soundcard in both Traktor and Ableton but Ableton just records the timecode signal and no audio from Traktor can be heard. |

| Breanne Penge 21.10.2011 | OK, I'll see what I can do about putting something together this weekend |

| Breanne Penge 19.09.2011 | You can just assign controls to the synch1 / synch2 / int buttons for that. No need for M4L |
| Laurice Migneco 19.09.2011 | Yes it does... I'm having great fun with it, it needs a little bit more control so i can choose easily which deck to sync to using my midi controller in Ableton but i'll figure that out with M4L.... Cheers D |
| Spencer Kilcoyne 19.09.2011 | Got to get round to this I'm assuming it'll work with Live 8 and an SL1 box? |
| Breanne Penge 18.09.2011 | Interesting. :eek: |
