Welcome to Ableton Live Workflow Hacks! This is the first of 3 courses that focus on workflow hacks. This first segment is designed to help you increase your speed and efficiency when starting new song ideas. We will cover techniques that you can employ in Live's Session View, such as how to record, overdub, and live loop new parts without stopping the flow of the music. We will also take a look at some tricks for more efficient writing of MIDI parts, such as utilizing MIDI effects, step recording in MIDI notes, and making the most of Drum Racks to organize sounds and samples quickly.

Join audio post-production engineer Cheryl Ottenritter as she dives into an array of key concepts, explaining how each one plays into the creation of high-quality audio. Learn how sample rates are used in digital audio, as well as what perceived loudness, or LKFS, is and how to mix with it in mind. Plus, learn how understanding sound fields can help you select the right audio track type, what the most common audio track layouts are, and more.

By gaining a solid understanding of sound synthesis, you'll be empowered to create and shape your very own sounds. In this course, learn how to use Serum, the popular synth plugin, through a series of practical lessons, tips, tricks, and sound design projects. Instructor Rick Schmunk goes over wavetable synthesis, as well as how to shape sounds using ENVs and LFOs. Plus, he covers how to use macros to add real-time changes, how to create and edit sounds, and more. Throughout the course, Rick shares tips and tricks for more efficient, nuanced usage of the tool. As new features are added to Serum, this course will be updated to ensure you're prepared to leverage all that this wavetable synthesizer has to offer.

Welcome to Intro To Music Publishing: A Creative and Business Perspective For Musicians. This 2 part entry level video series is based on Bobby Borg’s popular book Business Basics For Musicians, and is for beginners who want to understand the fundamentals of music publishing, as well as for more advanced musicians who need a solid business refresher.

This course will be focused primarily on three different types of synthesis that are employed by different virtual instruments in Ableton Live. You'll learn about subtractive synthesis using the analog instrument, frequency modulation (FM) synthesis with operator, and we'll also explore granular synthesis using the sampler instrument. We will look at a few Max for Live devices (such as the drum synths and standalone LFO) that can be useful aids in sound design.

This course is designed to highlight and explain how to use the devices in Ableton Live that have a sidechain input. Utilizing the sidechain input of these devices allows the user to modulate them by using the audio from another track, which can be useful in many practical and creative applications. This allows you to control how the track pumps and breathes, as heard in lots of music today. Each lesson will highlight a new device and show creative examples of how to take advantage of this feature.

The objective of this mini-course is to give the viewer a better fundamental understanding of basic mixing concepts and techniques. We will use a project with many tracks (essentially an unmixed song) and begin by discussing gain staging and techniques for establishing a good volume balance between tracks (while maintaining a good amount of headroom on the master channel). From there we will discuss grouping tracks, subtractive EQing, panning, effective ways to control dynamics such as compression, and insert effects versus send effects. By the conclusion of this course the viewer will have a much better understanding of how to properly approach mixing their own music.

This course will highlight aspects of Ableton Live that will help you develop a more efficient and productive workflow, as well as introduce some unique creative possibilities. This is the sequel to our popular Things Every Ableton Producer Should Know mini-course, so be sure to check that out if you have not already. The concepts and techniques covered in this course are important for any producer that values their time and efficient workflow, and will give you an edge as an Ableton producer by enabling you to work in your projects and execute your creative ideas much quicker.

Learn several useful tips that you may not be aware of. We will demonstrate how to not only name scenes, but also assign a tempo and time signature to individual scenes. Converting audio to MIDI will be demonstrated, which can be a useful tool when you're not able to translate a musical idea in your head (or contained in a sample). The concepts of grouping tracks and grouping devices (which creates a rack) will be covered in more detail, which will give you much more flexibility when dealing with multiple devices or tracks. Lastly, we'll cover slicing audio to MIDI and slicing with the Simpler instrument, which are two features that any Ableton user will be able to take advantage of. These hard-to-find skills will give you an edge as an Ableton producer.

This is the third of 3 courses (Level III) in our beginner Music Production series in Ableton Live. Now that you've completed Level II, you’re on your way to completing your own unique sound and sharing it with the world. In this course you’ll learn about EQing your tracks, working with effects, creative sampling techniques, export settings, and much more.
