Having a proper hobby is something we all realized we needed last year. Many people turned to music for comfort during quarantine, even picking up instruments and production programs during the ample downtime. If music is still on your mind, consider this your sign to pursue it in 2021: grab this deal on The Complete Ableton Live 10 Music Production Bundle for 97% off.
The highly-rated bundle includes 220 lessons designed by Certified Ableton Instructor J. Allen for a proper education on one of the industry’s most important tools. Broken down into six parts, the classes address everything from the bare basics to performance-prepping techniques. All courses are rated 4.4 stars or higher.
Start by learning the fundamentals of audio recording and gain an understanding of Ableton Live's signal flow. Move onto the 5-star-rated recording and warping session, dedicated to teaching the best recording techniques. By part three, you’ll be ready to start producing music on Ableton Live! The thorough course on producing and editing boasts 4.7 stars, and past students say they find themselves "referencing these lectures over and over again."
The second half of the training delves into the Ableton Live instruments. Get synthesis tips and tricks, learn how to get the most out of your samples, plus take in tons of production tips. If this is all in an effort to become a DJ, you’ll find the course titled Audio & MIDI Effects particularly helpful.
As you wrap up the course load, Allen enlists the expertise of colleague James Patrick for Part Six: DJ Techniques & Controllers. One reviewer calls it a "great overview of live performance techniques using Ableton and controllers.”
