So glad I chose this class!
I just started using Ableton Live a couple months ago and it wasn’t until I took this class that everything finally began to click! I watched hours of videos on YouTube and read guides–even the manual–but nothing clicked until I began taking this course. Thank you J Allen!
Nice course
If you want to get to know with Ableton 11 interface and basics it’s a pretty nice course. I would recommend it for sure.
Great Intro
Very good at explaining the basics of Ableton. Definitely feel like I can navigate around now and excited to keep going 🙂
