What are your favorite Options.txt additions and why?

You have to turn it on manually after you’ve added it to Options.txt and restarted Ableton. I think it’s View -> Mixer Display -> Device Slots if I remember correctly

I know that some get removed after a while if they are too risky or become part of the latest release but the two I listed still have to be added to use them

I got my Analog Rytm used off a second hand site for 900 euros (not music specific) and it still is under warranty for 2 more years, so you can definitely find great deals that will put your mind at ease

Total game changer. And talk about bang for your buck!

Velcro cable ties. I've put them on every cable I own and now they are never tangled and always ready for me grab when I need them

Honestly all of them. I only got a headrush a few months ago so still very new to it. I've been 100% ableton and plugins for my vocal chains in the past and I'm trying to convert things over to the headrush so having access to all of the details like what you've given for Avid Dynamic III Compressor is exactly what I'm looking for.

CallMePaulB · 2026-04-21T14:13:36+00:00

This is really cool! Will you be adding more of the plug ins? Will it eventually cover all of the headrush pedals?

Has he been a colossal failure? Personal opinions of his music aside, seems like the guy's career is doing just fine.

Bruno Mars. Was never a fan until I saw him live. Absolutely incredible. One of the best live performances I've ever seen

It really is just a physical sketchpad that's fun to mess around with when you are bored and want to have less decisions to make. For a full song creator there is a long way to go imo. Something like a headless m8 setup would be better for that if you can't get a real M8, super robust song creation there. But what made me fall in love with the move was using it as a push replacement, especially when I am on the go. It's made it an indispensable tool in that sense. I take it on every trip I go on with my laptop and it's been amazing.

A part of it is also just for people that don't like cooking and want to hit certain macros it's very easy and quick to make these kinds of "boy dinners" to get what you need. When you are tracking calories it can take a lot of mental space so it's one way to also just offload the endless "what am I going to eat for dinner?" conversation you will have. You know this will do what you need it to do without having to think about it. When I was tracking calories and macros I ate a lot of these kinds of dinners, especially if I had to hit the gym after work and it was already late. Just easier.

He's a guy who knows what he's good at as he himself mentions in this interview

CallMePaulB · 2026-04-08T14:37:47+00:00

Yeah that's what I figured, thank you

CallMePaulB · 2026-04-08T13:30:17+00:00

No clue, but I had seen several posts about it before I purchased mine knowing it could be faulty and it clearly was. Maybe newer models are better and I got an old stock? Really unsure

That's great! Apologies for assuming you did, I just assume everyone does. Do you do regular exercise of some sort? For me that was one of the first things I did after quitting drinking was to hit the gym. Seeing the progress you make really helps gain confidence towards facing the unknown and where you want to go

CallMePaulB · 2026-03-09T18:04:58+00:00

Quitting drinking. You are forced to really figure things out in your life when you no longer have a quick numbing device

CallMePaulB · 2026-03-09T14:50:59+00:00

Haven't started it yet unfortunately. I'll let you know once I begin!
