bro made it through the whole series! THANK YOU SO MUCH MAN, THIS WAS CRAZY!!! after your course i feel like i kinda know what im doing more. before i was scrambling like a headless chicken. keep up the good work bro
I love to hear this!!
"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
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 wanted to say thank you at the end. I am from germany and just started making music a year ago. Now i am able to make my own music in abelton. Not like big players in the musician scene but i did my first steps with you. Again thx a lot!!!
You are a big player, because you do what you love! Keep it up!
I'm about to buy an Arturia minilab and this series has saved me a lot of time trying to figure out Ableton live by myself. Thank you so much for helping out us beginners.
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! 😃💖
Thank you Taetro! I watched your entire series and you have helped me so much throughout the process of producing! I love your videos so much and would recommend your channel to anyone. Your explanations are extremely clear and whenever I have a question directed toward a certain process you always clear it up for me! I appreciate you dude, awesome asf!
I love you, man. there are these times when you're stuck and run in circles for too long. Then some video or sentence comes along and brings the epiphany. thank you!
I´m new to music production and this series helped me a lot. Thank you for this amazing content and keep up the good work!!!
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!
Watched the next lesson and almost forgot to leave a comment and a like! Thank you Taetro for bringing us this awesome first splash into the world of Ableton live. It really is exciting and you provide such a simple and clear introduction! Will forever be grateful!
Just made it all the way through! THANKS TAETRO! Super Helpful.
Dear Taetro, thank you for having taken the time to do this series.Of course I just started with abelton after years of digital performer and your teaching has been CRUCIAL.
Thanks forever!!!
thank you so much master!!! I've been following all of your 10 step by step Ableton lesson... and it's just completely awesome! I'm a new big fans of yours!
Thank you a lot for the series. Your teaching approach is incredible, it's really a treasure in the youtube world)
this series did exactly as it promised . got me started on music production now I can take it from here and expand on how complicated things I can do
the most difficult thing for me was to get started and now thanks to your videos I'm finally able to move on to the next steps
thank you so much
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!
Legend!
This series has and will help a lot of people in their music production learning process. Thank you so much for doing it
Thank you so much for helping my spring break to be a little bit more musical
These 10 videos are the best beginner tutorial I've tried. Your teaching style, calmness and knowledge totally shine. Thank you for making these.
Thanks so much for this journey it made me feel more confortble with ableton and i cant wait to master the stuff you explained!

It made me understand very quickly and I could finish my first project! :D

You are a master of music teaching. Thanks for these kind of content.
Thank you so much for this series
Thanks! I have really enjoyed both this beginners series, and the Music Theory tutorials. I have learnt so much from the series and your tutorial style is just about perfect. Well explained and very thorough. I would love a similar series on using Push 2.
Great series, thanks Taetro!
Great tutorials series! Learn so much from You.
Very well done tutorial Taetro! You explained everything really well for a complete beginner and gave me a good understanding of where to start. Thanks very much, you've gained a new fan

Thank you for everything!
Mad it to number 10!!! Thankyou so much for you content.
thanks very much for all of these, they really got me up to speed fast!
great video, explaining a lot in a short amount of time, thanks ! :)
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.
Thank you for your all lessons ... brilliant ❤😊😊
I just finished the series. God Bless you. I am a Ugandan artist who has been making music in FL and Logic and wanted to try out Ableton and you made it a fun experience. I wish I could collaborate on a track with you. Stay blessed🙏🏼
This was an AWESOME intro to Ableton! Learned a ton from these videos. I can only imagine how much more there is to learn, but these videos provided a really good foundation. Great job on these!!
Thank you! More to come soon!!
Thank you for the whole series! I'm pretty sure I can start to make some music, even on Ableton lite, but for learning purposes it's enough. You've made a pretty good job here! 👍👌
Great series!
TAETRO thank you!!
thx your amazing now we can get creating music and express ourself
4:36 Definitely the biggest "whoa!" moment I've had the whole series. So many tiny buttons in the UI hiding HUGE features :)
amazing to hear. And yes Live is full of these little buttons
awesome, you got me going recording music after many years of just playing it. My teen son even said it sounds cool:)
Nice job taetro! I hope you are gonna keep it up with the intermidiate and advance levels.
ya
Thanks @taetro for a very well put together, comprehensive course! 🤘
thank you for all the support Hale!
thanks a lot taetro, i've followed the whole series from France, and it helped me a lot ! Very clear, and basics but necessary stuff. I was on Fl before, but I want to make live, so I just switched 2 weeks ago!
awesome to hear. congrats on making it this far. Check the playlist too because I've added some additional chapters!
A great series, I've learnt so much! And it's nice to know it's always here for when I forget something!. I have found to that hitting the save button from time to time to be helpful! Loved your end track... It reminds of Minecraft!
Thank you so much ❤
Hey man this was actually an amazing series, I'm coming from studio one and am semi new to making electronic music. You have a very helpful way of teaching, and really inspired me to stick with the hobby of making music. Some suggestions for a video would be explaining how to use Ableton's stock synths in detail or Serum since that one is very popular. Cheers dude. love your channel.
Thank you so much for this series!🙌🏼 So grateful! Could I request a video on recording guitar, finding the right tempo, quantising etc please?? Really struggling with that 😩
Just finished the series, and I love it! The way you instruct and explain was refreshing, like @TheLionsDen said, we are now chickens with heads reattached!
Yo Taetro, your videos are amazing. I just joined the producer/beatmaking community after only playing guitar my whole life and you made it possibly to jump right into making the stuff I imagined in my head within days of learning with your Videos. You're doing an amazing work. Very glad i stumbled upon this tutorial series. Def gonna recommend it to any friends thinking about joing this stuff aswell.
Thank you Adrian! Welcome to the community!!
Thank you so much TAETRO
thanks for watching!!
Bro just became my hero. Thanks, man!!
appreciate you neal. now go make some music! !
Te amo bro, gracias a ti empece a hacer musica
hey man! just grinded out this whole series in four days starting from nothing with little to no music theory knowledge. Even so, I was able to create a track that im actually quite proud of at this point in my progression, so I thank you!!
Amazing!! I’m going to be adding another chapter next week!
If we can enter the next stage, it's great because you teach in a completely professional manner 🍓🥃
Thank you!
LONG TIME NO SEE BRO
Best course
Very nice Taetro, thank you very much for all your teaching. Was hoping to hear the track you made from start to finish though 😉
my livestreams are the closest to getting into more detail. Each track has so much nuance and the process isn’t always uniform so it’s difficult to put that stage into a single chapter
@@Taetro oh I only meant to listen to the track from start to finish at the end of the class as all the separate sections were sounding great :))
I like this
I like that
Yeeees 🙌
When is season 2 coming? Ableton Live for Intermediates!
I feel like you were so through in the early parts that you missed teaching arrangement view in that same manner. I'm watching but so much of it is about editing the sounds and fine tuning that I still feel as though I don't know how to use arrangement. Could you offer more on this specifically? I want to just start in arrangement and work - is that even a thing?
I am new to this and I would like to get myself a midi controller. I am stuck between 3 I am interested in. AKAI APC Key 25 MK2, Novation Launchkey Mini MK3 , and Novation launchpad x, which offers the most bang for the buck? I am more between the launchkey and akai APC. Can anyone help me with this?
Get the Novation MK3 it is a great one to begin with
@@mlgpapabear I ordered it last night!
super ironic how good i do when i am copying everything you do but when i try to make a beat i suck lol... gotta keep working on it
but if you're just starting - that's exactly what to expect. I still make a lot of crap too! just less than when I first started.
@@Taetro thx man!
If you can at least finish a totally sucky song, mastered and uploaded you can start over and over time your songs will improve..but then you go back and listen to that first one and think.. that's pretty great actually!
I guess we need Intermediate level 😅
yes
I think the best thing immediately would be to watch my streams live, or watch my previous streams. you can get a lot out of raw uncut process, but now that you know the basics, you have a foundation to work from
why is he waring a jacket (and a hat) indoors lol
🥶

Simply wonderful ❤️ your work a pleasure to watch and learnt so much. Thank you TAETRO. 🦘🇦🇺
