Ethan after watching about 300 videos on music production, I can definitely say that you are at the top 3 tutors, to make something simple for others to understand.
hey there...! I wonder if you would like to share your top 3? 😊
Totally agree, after stumbling on this channel today. 👍🏾
Also curious if you can share the other two as well
I cant agree more
@@FrancisKnoni-mb8hm For me the other top two would be Taetro and Beat Academy
I thought you seemed rather pretentious at first, but then I realized that you are a very skilled teacher and music producer. I’ve never learned through a “chill” teacher in my 16 years in culinary. So I appreciate your directness and focus, and you talking to me like I am ignorant… because I was, but now I can transition from garage band and BandLab on iphone to Ableton live seamlessly. I took many notes and working on my new ep. Thank you for being cocky and good. Also for free. Jesus.
I can't believe you posted this 3 months ago...Nobody is doing tutorials on Live 9 these days! You've cornered a market. I'm subbing. 💯
bro you are a magician literally solved my creative and the problem which am getting in producing
thanks so much
Hey Ethan this is very helpful in the exact spot where you are new to ableton and maybe know how to make a drum pattern but you dont know what to do next - im in this position right now and this exactly shows the progression. thank you!
This was an amazing masterclass! Thank you for sharing!
Best tutorial video I've ever seen.
thank you so much Ethan, this video opened my mind a lot when it comes to how to think about writting beats!
I've discovered your channel only few days ago and I bet you must be very soon in the top recommended producers on UA-cam. It's a true pleasure, your content is very relevant and dense, always inspiring and you do it in a very humble and genuine way. It also invited to discover your music universe. Many thanks.
3 videos later and you convinced me I can produce music, something I just thing of the other day. May sound naive, but that's how professional and intuitive you have been on your clips (except the music theory one but I'm just clueless)
Brooo thank you so much for this video. I have tried different methods to make a beat, and yours was definitely the best. I made an insane beat right away!! thank you!1
Cool Videos Ethan , Love the explaination !
You are the best !!!
Ethan I’m new to this whole space and your videos are incredibly helpful. I’m wondering if you’d ever want to post a video running through your favorite or most used plugins. Ableton does have plenty of good options but I just don’t know where to start when it comes to plug ins, especially for vocals
Very helpful, thank you!
Ive been trying to learn Ableton for years. I don't know what it is about your teaching style but everything just clicks. Really love your teaching style!
Really, coz its very basic....
thanks bro these videos are good
I learned so many amazing tools that I had no idea about. 10/10 brother
Been watching your videos for the past week and I’m surprised how much I’ve improved in production. You are straight to the point without over and under explaining. Great work 💯
Thanks a lot for this video man !!
I’ve been bench watching most of your content for a few hours today, and find them to be very inspiring and encouraging. So thank you. I’m guilty of procrastinating for some time now, and just need to get my music out rather than get buried on my hard drive.
Quick question: Do you have to convert midi to waveform after mixing them?
Thank you bro ❤❤❤
This Man Is Great Teacher ..thank you so much for everything man ...your videos are easy to understand ..Big Love from india!!
if u r into music production too, lets form a group to discuss things, as i am in starting stages, i would love to learn from you all too
I am sold, I am a photographer, graphic designer, motion designer, videographer learning music, do i have a problem?? 🤣🤣🤣 But yeah, this tutorial got me in Ableton first.
bro i wish i had this in 2020 before i gave up, this was the best ableton beginner tutorial ever
Thank you 🙏🏾🖤
this really helped me good shit!
Thank you. I'm new to Ableton and beat making. This was one of the best tutorials on Ableton I've seen. I'll definitely be checking out your course. Keep up the great work. You just got yourself a new subscriber, lol.
Wow after spending hundreds on courses and feeling overwhelmed and quitting a couple of times, your UA-cam video really helped me understand the process a whole lot better!!!! I might win a Grammy now 🤣 I appreciate you fam, Subscribed!!!!!
aweee, love to hear that. keep going!
thank you vry much for this
Great video man ,i just have some questions.
Do you not put +6db on the master to allow headroom when mixing down?
Do you not low cut on the reverb to prevent muddiness and does it matter the order of eq and reverb?
Thank you for the video man
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Bro, these step-by-step videos from Ethan are really helpful.
Thanks bro
Yesss
Man yo video production is like a music video but it’s for a tutorial I dig it ❤
Amazing video really ! Please don't stop sharing your knowledge and teaching us ;) I appreciate this a lot !
Hi you mention to use drive or saturation to bring out more harmonics in the bass, so it helps it to be heard on smaller speakers.....does that also work on the kick...as I'm having a lot of trouble to get my kick to come through on my phone speaker...sometimes it just doesn't sound like it's there at all, while other times its just a clicky sound....🤯
🔥🔥🔥
this is great Ethan! thank you!
I have gone through lots of video tutorials tired so many time fail fail fail but after watching your video i literally produce a song damnnn thank you so much love it
Sub and like for my side 🎉
You’re the man bro. Thanks for these videos. Awesomeness
Do you mix your final version with your headphones mostly? What is the difference between Audeze and other headphones? I need to work with headphones for a while, it's a dilemma to pick a good one that will get me an accurate result, thank you!
Hello, when I use sound trap, I feel like I’m accomplishing what I want to with the beat I’m making but at times don’t feel like it makes sense and get frustrated. Thinking about making the switch to ableton but still unsure
@Ethan Davis I don't understand how you make the B Bass go along with the kick. Your first kick starts at 1.1, your second at 2.2.
Yet both bars for the B Bass start at x.1. If I do that then my second bass plays before the second kick. The only way I get it to work is by shifting the second bass to also start at 2.2 (which is something you clearly do not do)...
So what am I missing here? Thanks in advance.

Clean and to the point, this is much appreciated!
can these tips be used if i’m not trying to make a trap type beat?
Absolutely! And I have many videos for other styles of music as well
❤
Bro I want a perfect vedio on how to used Ableton Live for begginers...
roxanne, roxanne!
Shift + A ( Windows-User) - automation on/off
if you used midi for the kick and clap wouldn't it still sound the same?
in theory yes! i just drag stuff in because that's what I prefer, but you can use midi too if you enjoy it more
Does copy and paste just not work sometimes for some people? I had to manually copy and paste each individual segment, really slows the process down
If you highlight the section u want to copy and paste and hit control+D it will automatically copy and paste idk if ur having the same struggle I was but that was my issue, you can use that in piano roll to if u do control+a and then control+D you can copy all notes then move them around
it wont let me drag and drop kicks
I'm coming from FL Studio and this way of working is so different. It looks more like using Audacity just dragging waveforms to create your beat. The session view is also convusing. Have to watch a view more tutorials i guess. I hope I made the right choice switching to Ableton.
I’ve used maschine for 10 years. I’ve used FL a bit, but decided to get the trial of ableton. My first 1 hour of tutorials I was confused - now I’m not. You made the right choice switching, now make the right choice sticking it out!
i switched from FL like 12 years ago and it was so worth it! you made the right choice
Hey Ethan,If you had course i would buy, my girlfriend is a singer, tryna produce for her, but I don't know much about producing , I do play the piano though
my bad, you have one, see you there
Not sure how to describe it but your ableton looks completely different from mine. I’m missing the whole middle section where you actually place the sounds entirely. Not sure how else to describe it. Anyway you could explain what your settings are or something?
try pressing tab!
@@CompleteProducer thanks for the response, ended up figuring out that my ableton was just set to have the timeline on a second monitor which I don’t have but I got it all onto the one screen now!
i dont speak perfect English, but you explain it really damn well, and i like the way you teach. thank you again! iam paraplegic and now i can make musik with my healthy right hand on my pc😂 God bless you Ethan Davis!
sup guys,I wanna be producer and now i m in searching online daw. I found one,this is Amped Studio, is someone hear something about this online daw ? I need to write a music in a browser,what do you think ?
Shout out all the mfs started free styling when he started playing the beat 12:56
Ethan I'm at COTTAGE HOSPITAL But I have MOVED up too OJAI IN THE MOUNTAINS
I thought this was a master class video 😢. It started out great but half-way through, you switch to finished projects. Why not finish the beat? I was following along and you left me hanging.
I keep watching your videos all the time , till your face turning into nicholas cage's
love Nick Cage
This is so cool but too fast for a beginner. :(((( i can’t see and follow all clicks. To fast
ableton is trash
👌👌👌👌
