The Elements of Streaming

This chapter outlines all the main elements of a music stream. This chapter doesn’t go into detail on any one topic but instead presents them as a whole as to promote an understanding of what music streaming is.

We talk about the physical things like cameras or lights, and also the different types of software needed. The question of “what is streaming?” or “what do I need to start streaming” is a question that you can get many answers to online. So many answers it can be difficult to decide who’s right and who’s wrong, or what’s actually needed. This chapter will give you a clear understanding of what it takes to be a pro music streamer.

Looping Explained

Looping is one of the most important concepts to understand, as it is the core of everything we talk about in this course – musically. All of the music on my stream comes from loops prepared live on stream or at a prior time. In this chapter I talk about the differences in Live Looping, Produced Looping and Hybrid Looping. There are other ways to loop and I talk about those as well. Its a looping chat, get after it!

Setting Up A Song – Arrangement

When it comes to performing jaw dropping covers of your favorite songs or original works, the arrangement of the song in Ableton can make or break that performance. In this chapter I demonstrate using two different projects – Rush – Tom Sawyer and Prince’s Purple Rain to show how I decide how I’m going to arrange a given song for a looped up live performance.

Transitions Are Everything

This chapter is where I talk about transitions – which can easily separate the hobbyists from the pros. When working in Ableton to perform songs with lots of parts to them, we’re swapping out entire sets of loops and samples…if not done properly you can make quite a mess! I demo a few projects in the chapter to show how I overcame challenging transitions, and the principles that will allow you to do the same.

But if you’re singing in your streams you’ll definitely want to check out this chapter.

Discord

When the stream is over – what then? We were all having such a great time and now ummmm ?? Ok, so after the stream is finished your community still exists! Therefore, we setup Discord servers (for free) to serve as our own social media servers for our channel. The Discord serves as a hub for your users who are really interested in your stream and want to access more. You can set up your Discord server to do a lot of things, and in this chapter I’ll show you how mine is set up and talk about how Discord can help your music stream.
