Elite Session Masterclass with Moldover part 3

Originally Recorded in 2013

Hailed by 800,000 YouTube viewers as “The Godfather of Controllerism”, Moldover returns to Pyramind for an interactive music production and controllerism workshop using Ableton Live and custom effects and controllers. Moldover gives an extensive rundown of his self-created setup including a controller-modded guitar, microphone effects box and his signature MOJO controller, and demonstrates how he integrates these tools into his live performances running everything through Ableton. He also offers his personal insights into the philosophy of being a performing artist and the challenges and sacrifices that entails.

Part Three:
Moldover talks about the evolution of his fun & collaborative ‘Jamboxes’ which allow several people to make music on one integrated controller- one of Moldover’s stances is that music should be fun and involve audience participation.

Matt takes questions from the audience and talks about different approaches to performing live and pre-production, syncing separate systems, live looping and buffering & latency. He wraps up the night with insights into the challenges of taking on a musical career, keeping a personal and professional balance and accepting failures along with successes.
