I play out with Ableton having used it for years in the studio and loudly proclaiming that I'd never DJ with it. Needless to say once I actually tried I was hooked. The way I use it is like this; 2 x main tracks - Controlled with Faderfox DJ2. Each of these tracks has eq and 2 different delays. These tracks have 3 available slots so I can pull in 3 instances of a track and select / trigger different cue points / loops. 6 x loop tracks - Controlled with Faderfox LV2. Each of these tracks have a single slot available and a delay. I use these tracks for percussion loops, acapellas etc. On the DJ2 I use the cue volume pot for tempo and a couple of buttons for nudge forward / back to enable me to beatmatch easily. I use an Echo Indigo DJ audio interface with a single channel going to the mixer and my headphones going out of the other. I've experimented with dual channels going into the mixer but I prefer to keep everything running (eq etc) within Ableton. Apart from the delays I haven't set up any other effects in Ableton (primarily because I'm prone to overuse) but I do use the effects on the mixer a bit to effect the overall sound rather than each track seperately. I have all my tracks set up in key folders (from Mixed In Key ie. 1A, 1B, 2A etc) with an additional folder of A-Z shortcuts. These folders sit in tab 1 of the browser. I then have a tools and loops folder again set up by key. In this way if I have a track playing that is 7A I can quickly and easily pull a bunch of 7A percussion loops into the loop tracks and trigger them to add additional layers while ensuring that they will fit the key of the track that's playing. These folders sit in tabs 2 (acapellas) and 3 (percussion loops). My main tip is to only use WAVs (I buy 320 MP3's and convert to WAV) since MP3's have to be decoded to WAV if they're not in the decode cache. This can cause annoying drop-outs. I only realised this late on and had to re-warp over a thousand tracks since the ALS files for MP3 don't work for WAVs. Hope that made sense. I've put a screenshot of my live setup below.
