    The intro is pretty good for beginners, I learned a lot from it and you won’t get as overwhelmed. I think it’s worth giving it a try. I’m saving up to get the higher version now

    @Oscar-ww8qk 4 роки тому +1

    Hi, i don't know if you still read the comments of a video which came out 2 years ago but i'm actually a french student with some good basics in music and guitar, so i downloaded the trial version of ableton live and i actually love it ! I made my first (finished) instrumental minimalist song on it ( now that i have a nice daw to record and mix myself). But i wonder if going into an other style of production should be possible even with the intro version when my trial expires. I'm afraid the limitations of tracks and slicing audio would be limiting. Also i would not have access anymore to effects that i often use like the EQ. Do you think i can still record and mix a complete song even with the intro version of ableton or should i consider the standard version eventhough the price is kind of high ?
    Thx a lot for you videos anyway, keep that up

    I'm half tempted to wait for a sale, grab standard, get to grips with it (again, it's been a while since I last used it!) then upgrade to suite when I'm ready. It seems Standard + Suite upgrade = similar price to Suite?
    10 Standard: 349 eur
    10 Suite: 599 eur
    10 Standard + 10 Suite upgrade: 349 eur + £266 = 649eur (possibly a bit less, I can't seem to find the prices online unless you actually have it on your account)?

      If you buy today you get 20% off and a free upgrade to 11. There are other apps out there. If you're familiar with garage band logic might be easier for you to learn on Mac.

    I'm just worried if I'll miss having all the sounds that I already get with the trial version when I get the intro version (I know I definitely will *not* get the others because I just make music for myself, and don't want anything more out of it.) Also, I'm not that good at using software like this, so I don't really understand what a lot of the terms for the features mean (I know stuff like reverb, gain, stuff like that. One thing I don't understand exactly is what sounds are, because it says I get 1500 sounds with the intro version but when I look at the trial version, which is equivalent to suite, i might have 100 at most. Sorry if that was a head squeeze to read.

      Yes, but you should be able to save with Lite as well. To my knowledge the only time you can't is if you open a project that was created in standard or suite and contains devices you don't have a license for.

On ableton.com it's telling me to buy the upgrade with the cheaper price, but I've never paid for a version of Ableton Live such as Live 10 Intro, since I have the Lite version. Also the option to buy Live 10 Intro is grayed out. Is this upgrade going to work, is it safe to buy, will it just not work and make me lose my money?

And what does send and return tracks mean? And if u still reading this lmao what does mono audio input and output channels mean? Thanks in advance!! 🥰

    • @DJCouchKing
      @DJCouchKing  4 роки тому +1

      Live Intro is a great place to start. Standard and Suite can be overwhelming for a beginner. If you plan on remixing popular songs UA-cam might take them down for copyright reasons. You could probably get away with posting them on Instagram or SoundCloud if they're different enough from the orginal. Send tracks make a copy of the audio signal and route it to a return track so you can put effects on it. Mono is one audio channel, stereo is two channels (left and right). Hope this helps!

      Drop the audio file in the timeline in arrangement view, set the clip to the original tempo in the clip editor, activate warping in complex mode, adjust the master tempo of the live set and the audio file will follow. Then go to file and export audio/video to create a new audio file at the desired tempo. Complex will give the best results, but also use the most CPU. Most computers should be able to handle it just fine if it's only one stereo audio file.

      You can record any kind of music into Ableton Live. Although, personally, I think Pro Tools, Logic or Cubase are better suited for recording live vocals.
