DJ Megaset 1.0

I have spent a lot of time on an Ableton Live template for DJs who wish to do more than just mix from track to track. This Megaset has various advanced effects, chains, racks and dummy clips, so doing real time remixes of music on the fly is a breeze, you don't even need a fancy controller as the fun parameters are mapped out to keys on your computer keyboard (there is a key chart included in the package).

I released this to make people more aware of the current tools available for DJing these days. If you are one of those people that like to argue that using software that beatmaches for you isn't real DJing, this set is definantly not for you.

I have also gathered some music from friends of mine who I think are exceptionally talented, chopped them up into loops (intro, break, drop etc) and added them to the template, so anyone can download this and start mixing straight away.

Here is a track listing

Antix - Circade (Tom Cosm Remix)
Splinter - Tribal Funk
Mr Squatch - Corronation Beat
Animaltek - Pook
Pettro - Epicurus
Tom Cosm - Up At The Downs
Phat Riderz + Marz - You Need Love (Opiuo Remix)
Circuit Bent - New Electro
Monkey Trouble - Moa Groove
Grouch - Trashouth
Spoonhead - Tracing The Shadow
SattelLight - Complete Understand

All tracks are free! Massive thanks to these guys who contributed, it wouldn't be as nearly as punchy without you.

I am astounded at how much effort you put into this. Hell I'm impressed that you made the template, but the fact that you then spent an hour explaining it makes the whole undertaking that much more amazing.

I wish more people had your drive!

Huge thanks for sharing this. This is exactly the kind of tutorial I've been looking for! Planning to take Live out DJing inside the next month, and this answers all the questions I had and more!

All the best

Loving the video, always wondered what the envelopes and sends could be used for (along with 90% of the other stuff you showed in that video)! I've downloaded the megaset and loaded it into ableton a couple of times but when it loads up and everytime i hit a clip or something loops i hear a funny piano key sound?!?! Any ideas?

Thanks again!
