I’ve gone through a couple of the built-in tutorials—they are quite easy to follow and let you experiment. This is a great program.
Just picked up my copy of ableton and a Akai MPD24 usb controller. Now to read through this brick of a manual
I’ve ordered the paper manual and shall study it in my lunch-breaks.
I think I need to develop and settle on a “house sound”, so I can stop fiddling with all those lovely parameters and make some music.
0. the room (convolution reverb)
1. drum kit: kick drum, tympanon, cymbals
2. electric fretless fuzz bass
3. electric and/or tricone lap steel
4. mandolin
5. piano
6. orchestral instruments
7. phonography
8. vox
the connection of the “arrangement view” and the “session view”: I haven’t grasped the implications of that yet.
it’s my first time trying to use this program and i have no clue what to do…i haven’t even ever used any other recording programs
i just bought an m-audio axiom 61 midi controller and am excited to start learning how to create music with ableton live. wish me luck!
