I have different templates for different genres, but my main go-to template is the one for producing pop\/alternative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at this from two different ways. You can be minimalistic and have the bare essentials, or you can have everything you need and delete tracks. I chose the latter. This option is more for your computer to load, so it also depends on your system&rsquo;s capabilities.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Look at your Ableton projects and pick out the things that commonly appear. This will give you perspective as to what you need and want.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For my&nbsp;<strong>general production template<\/strong>, I&nbsp;<strong>break<\/strong>&nbsp;it down&nbsp;<strong>into groups<\/strong>. These groups are the&nbsp;<strong>drum elements<\/strong>,<strong>&nbsp;bass elements<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>chord elements<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>lead elements<\/strong>,&nbsp;<strong>fx elements<\/strong>, and&nbsp;<strong>vocal elements<\/strong>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Within each group, there are several tracks and even sub-groups. I have everything I can add to a song in these groups to remove a barrier to my creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What Effects And Plugins Do You Need?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that you have your tracks set up, it&rsquo;s time to consider the&nbsp;<strong>effects<\/strong>&nbsp;on each track and each group. Remember, we want to&nbsp;<strong>use effects<\/strong>&nbsp;that&nbsp;<strong>help the creativity<\/strong>&nbsp;to keep flowing, and do so&nbsp;<strong>sparingly<\/strong>&nbsp;as if you&rsquo;re&nbsp;<strong>recording<\/strong>&nbsp;any audio (even in a demo sense), then the<strong>&nbsp;latency<\/strong>&nbsp;will be unusable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I make sure that my<strong>&nbsp;guitar&nbsp;<\/strong>and&nbsp;<strong>bass tracks&nbsp;<\/strong>have&nbsp;<strong>amp simulators<\/strong>&nbsp;ready, my&nbsp;<strong>vocal chain<\/strong>&nbsp;is present, some&nbsp;<strong>EQ<\/strong>&nbsp;in certain tracks to clean up the sound, and any&nbsp;<strong>virtual instruments<\/strong>&nbsp;and&nbsp;<strong>samplers&nbsp;<\/strong>I use.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since I&rsquo;ve used this template for so long, if I have a musical idea, I find it quicker to get it roughly down in Ableton than writing it on paper.
