 One of the great things about adapting a song for live performance is that you probably already have the processing chains dialed in for your different instruments. In many situations you’ll be able to use these processing chains as they are, including sidechain signal routings. One of the great things about adapting a song for live performance is that you probably already have the processing chains dialed in for your different instruments.

 +===== 5. Group similar instruments together =====
 +
 +If you do play with a band, grouping together similar instruments will allow your band members to play multiple parts more easily. For example, you can have a keys player take control of multiple synths, pads and pianos in your song, while someone else looks after the percussion and one-shot effects.
 +
 +When grouping track elements together, make sure to apply bus processing in a way that adds glue to the sound. A bus compressor like the [[https://www.waves.com/plugins/ssl-g-master-buss-compressor|SSL G-Master Buss Compressor]] will provide you with tight compression. An attack time of around 10-30 ms and a release time around 0.1-0.3s should do the trick.
 +
 +Another interesting technique you can experiment with is bus limiting using a limiter like the [[https://www.waves.com/plugins/l2-ultramaximizer|L2 Ultramaximizer]], preventing individual elements from sticking out in the live mix. To do this, set the L2’s threshold so that it’s just brushing the peaks of your bus signal.

 +The artist Lights has a phenomenal live show that incorporates Ableton Live, multiple bandmates and backing tracks:

 +
 +Lights is singing, there’s a drummer, a guitarist, and someone playing keys who also seems to be in control of Ableton. A setup like this isn’t actually that hard to pull off, and it’s a good model to use if you’re trying to create something similar.
 +
 +On the more extreme end of the spectrum, you have bands like Destroid that have taken the concept of live performance to the next level. They’re each playing their own respective instrument while controlling Ableton simultaneously. Even their voices are being processed in real-time through Ableton using creative FX chains.
