Michael Woods

In this video Michael Woods demonstrates how to control Ableton Live with the iPad controller app TouchAble. You can see him firing up Ableton at 3:32 into the video.

The screen to the left in the video shows Pro Tools in arrangement mode, with a MIDI editor at the bottom part of the screen.

Also, the fact that he uses the Bomb Factory 1176 Compressor plug-in (according to this article http://bit.ly/1cHcrb7) clearly indicates he's got a copy of Pro Tools 8 on his computer.

"This is a hardware synth which was made in 1999 with a 24 note polyphony and amazing oscillators, from 2 to 3 per voice. I use this mainly for the creation of lead sounds and occasionally for atmospheric pad sounds. This synth is essential because it never really creates the same sound twice so you are always creating something new."

"This is a sound card that comes with a whole array of its own plugins which are exact replicas of their hardware counterpart. I use this because it emulates the sound and the feel of analogue hardware which can be lost in today’s digital world."

"I use this particular compressor because it seems to bring my productions to life and really adds a punch to the sound. This compressor works great on vocals as well as drums but can also be used on the entire mix if used correctly."

"This a fully modular synthesis studio within which one can create an endless amount of their own programmable synthesizers. I use it because you can get very creative crafting new sounds and its very user friendly."

In this video, Michael Woods uses the touchAble app on his iPad to control Ableton Live. This video was filmed at London's Ministry of Sound. Michael Woods demonstrates how to setup the iPad and sync to a mac running an Ableton set. From the YouTube video description: "He then shows us around the touchAble interface, and explains why this is his preferred performance setup, allowing him complete freedom to produce and remix on the fly and take his club nights to new heights!"
