Site Discussion Tutorial Discussion
1

Over the next 18 videos we will taking you through the key areas of Ableton Live's latest release Live 9.

 

This is the beginner Level 1 course where we first get to grips with the software - Level 2 will follow on the site shortly after and will continue on from where this course ends.

 

First up though we will be taking a look at the main features of the software from its user interface to the differences between the Session & Arrangement views.

We will then look at creating everything esstential to making a full track from drums, percussion, lead synth and bassline. Finally we complete this introductory course by doing an arrangement of our song and show you how to export the file making it ready to convert to MP3 or burn to CD.

Hello folks@SonicAcad...
I have been a member since Jan 2013 but viewing your video of the new live9
I have seen that all the videos that you offer usually is pre setup with all the
files etc., but so far I have not understood how this functions so for that reason
I do not have any files, project saved as it is demonstrated when a new part
of the course is started...where can I get some help...?

Hi Dino - grab the files & resources from the &#034Files & Resources&#034 tab on the right ! >>

Easy to understand basic arrangement in 5 chunks, good starting point for beginners.

32 bar dj intro
32 bar 1st main section
16 bar break

Only a few audio & midi effects, instrument rack, sample bass & drums used with a bit of automation â??perfect for a beginner&#039

And the tutor was good.
