Re-edits in ableton (where to begin, what actually constitutes a reedit)
Hi
I would like to take my ableton experimentation and dj'ing a little further and start doing re-edits in order to keep with the flow and shorten insanely long tracks.
so I ask,
what exactly is a reedit can you give me examples of the like, I didnt think its like a remix where you have to have all the parts of a song (sasha remix contest etc).
Anything else I should know?
I have reason, peak and ableton live 6 as my tools so-far.
If you edit something don't you move / remove parts not add?
You coud do a PVD and get tunes made by up and coming producers and cut all the build ups / breakdowns into a tune with a lng buildup and one breakdown?

didnt you just answer your own question?
you edit the track to make it fit in your set, whether it be taking out a breakdown or adding in percusive elements...
not that complicated, especially with a program like ableton.

It could be anything from cutting a few loops of un-needed percussion to re-arranging the whole track - by the definition of 'edit' you are changing something ... it's upto you to decide what!
The reason for re-editing this track was that I heard it on some compilation CD and it sounded awesome. The problem was that the track was only about two-and-a-half minutes long. So, I sliced it, diced it, mixed it up, added my own personal touch, and here's what I got.
If you have any specific questions on making a re-edit, feel free to PM me.

Thanks, I got all the info I need now.
I probably did answer my own question in the OP, but thanks for the clarifications.
