      "Scrambling like a headless chicken" - now there's a good song idea!
      Props on going making it through the series! Your comment makes me think I should go back and start from the beginning. (This is the first I stumbled upon)

    After searching for around two weeks worth of tutorials, this one has by far been the most useful, most artists will make a online course that you have to pay for, but this has been incredible for doing the same thing for free, and I can't thank you enough for the lessons, Taetro!! Incredible work. :D

    • @Taetro

      thank you so much fluffy that is incredibly generous. I’m so glad you were able to make it through the course. I’ll add some chapters soon!

    Was feeling so lost and despondent that I'd never be able to get my head around Ableton. Started this series a few weeks ago, completed it today and feel like I've learned a whole new language! Lost track of how many times I high fived the dog every time I got something right. The final episode, bringing everything together, the arrangement workflow and 1 minute of semi-cogent music was beyond thrilling! Eternal gratitude Taetro, for your patience, generous and beautifully produced content. You do make the world a better place x

      Jodi! thank you thank you so much!! I'm so glad you've enjoyed the entire series and it has helped you making music. Your kind words and support really mean a lot.
      Just to make sure you've seen it, I recently added an additional chapter to this series with some basic mixing tips, and I also usually suggest people who have completed learning the foundations to start really observing long form process videos to see the nuances of how artists work beyond the basics. My livestreams are best for that but other creators also share their process in different ways.

    I finished the series. And i'm actually fully blown away by what i've learned from all that. A week ago i opened ableton for the first time and i just didn't know what i was seeing, as if i'll never get to learn this because everything was too complicated. Now i feel like thanos! It's all clear now and i properly know how to navigate around ableton. Thank you so much for this awesome work, taetro! Can't wait till you make more like these.

    I've recently started making lofi tracks on a mini midi keyboard, and your name came up EVERYwhere online when I was searching on how to get started... after watching this series I can see why. You are such a brilliant teacher. Your tutorials are simple to follow and so informative. You get into some complex stuff without it being daunting at all.
    I have loved listening to your released music on Spotify. You are a really talented musician and I thank you so much for sharing your passion and knowledge with all of us FOR FREE!

    Hi Taetro! I've seen all the videos in the playlist and I just want to say thank you so so much for your work! Even though I already knew a little about Live, I wanted to get a little more serious and these series are great for that. I love your style, the way you teach, the progression of the course, and all the little tips and explanations you deliver. They make you feel like you are REALLy learning the software. Now I will go for the music theory one. Keep up the good work, and thanks again! 😃💖

  • @trevorhsmith
    @trevorhsmith Рік тому

    Thanks so much for making this series! Even though I've played in Ableton for awhile, this gave me the foundation I've always wanted. And this last video in particular really helped me because arranging has always been difficult for me. Too often I will overcomplicate things in the idea creation phase and then be muddled by the time it comes to build the song out. This also validated some things I found myself intuitively doing which is a good feeling. So thank you, thank you, thank you! As someone who shoots and edits videos as well, I know it is no small task to do all these things at once. As always you've knocked it out of the park!

    TAETRO, thank you for your advice, your guidance, and your wisdom. Since Maxi Jazz from Faithless died, I've been thinking about what a gift to the world dance music has been. As a long time musician, I'm getting into creating my own music using a DAW and now a MIDI keyboard. You've been helping me. It would be great to write and produce a song that packs the club dance floors like Insomnia did. Keep up the great work, Brother.

I want to just start in arrangement and work - is that even a thing?
