In this class we will be focusing on how to edit, produce, arrange, and compose in Ableton Live.
In this class we will be focusing on how to edit, produce, arrange, and compose in Ableton Live. For years I've been teaching Ableton Live in the college classroom. As a University Professor, my classes are sought after, and, frankly, expensive. I believe Ableton Live can be learned by anyone, and cost shouldn't be a barrier. This class uses the same outline and syllabus I've used in my college classes for years, at a fraction of the cost.
