    Best course so far in the program!

    5.0

    Every time I watch one of J’s videos as part of his courses, I want to stop and get to making music but I’m so glad I hold off because the next lesson teaches me more about the kind of stuff I want to do! By far the best course but I have a few more to go! Definitely recommend this one especially if you just want to know what editing and production tools you have at your hands with Ableton. Thanks J!
