Section 1Introduction and Understanding of the Interface

What is a DAW and how does it work? Ableton Live is a unique DAW and has gained popularity as people see how it performs compared with other DAWs. We must first understand what a DAW is, and how it works. (3:24)

What makes it special? Ableton Live Unique? Let’s be unique! Ableton Live from the rest. It can do more than playback and record audio. We will soon find out (5:37).

Session View and Arrangement View are two of the many special features of Ableton The use of two views is what makes Live work. The Arrangement View is a linear timeline view and will be familiar to users who have previously used DAWs. The true power of the software is revealed when you learn how to use the Session View. (10:55)

Live’s Browser It is convenient to be able immediately to create or grab sounds when inspiration strikes. It might not be the best way to get inspired. Thankfully, Live’s built-in browser can simplify this process for us, and even allow us to search folders on our computer without leaving Live’s interface. (12:48)

Ableton Live’s Preferences Before we dive into creating and composing with Live, let’s explore the Preferences. There are many settings we can adjust. For example, the audio interface that we use, the MIDI controllers that are enabled, the color scheme, zoom level, and so on. (12:48)

Section 2: Clips are the building blocks of Live

What are clips? You can find all the musical elements in Live in Audio or MIDI clips. It is important to know what clips are and how they work. Clips are the basic building blocks of Live. Ableton Live is the key to our creativity and capture of ideas. (17:11)

What is MIDI/Computer Keyboard? We can use it! Ableton Live like a full fledged studio, but the one thing we don’t have are actual instruments. Fortunately, there are MIDI instruments that can either be used with a MIDI controller (or our computer keyboard). First, let’s find out what MIDI means and how Live uses the MIDI messages that it receives. (7:23)

MIDI clips. Now that you know what clips and what MIDI are, let’s take a closer look at a MIDI Clip and some of the properties. This will provide a base for recording and playing ideas with our MIDI instrument. (11:09)

Difference between Audio and MIDI clips Since MIDI clips and Audio clips serve slightly different purposes (MIDI clips contain notes and velocity, while audio clips contain audio samples), lets quickly compare and contrast the two clips types so we’re familiar with the unique properties of each. (3:40)

What is it? “Warping?” Ableton Live is a multi-faceted program that has many tricks. One of these fundamental features is the Warp function. Audio clips that are properly warped will follow the project’s master tempo regardless of their original tempo. This allows us to combine clips of completely different tempos and have them play in sync, but that is just scratching the surface… (12:30)

Section 3: Working with audio clips

Importing audio loops When our preferences are set correctly, we can import different audio samples and have them automatically warped or looped. This allows us quickly to get multiple musical elements in sync with our project tempo. It is important to ensure that multiple clips are played at once on separate audio tracks. (14:13)

Clip Launch Quantization You might have noticed by now that when you launch a clip while the transport is running, it doesn’t immediately playing. It waits for the next bar to start before playing. What’s the deal? It’s because Ableton Live automatically quantifies the launching of clips 1 By default, bar Let’s explore how this works (8:52)

Basic Clip Launch Property We have Clip Launch property that affects how clips behave when launched. This gives us great flexibility in the way we combine and play clips in our project. (7:29)

Basic Clip Envelopes Every clip in Ableton Each Live account has its own Clip Envelope. These clip envelopes can be used to change (modify) a parameter over time. These clip envelopes can be used to automate almost any task, from simple volume fades to complex volume gates or anything else. Let’s take a look at how they work. (13:25)

Clip Envelopes: Follow Action You can tell each clip to play a certain amount of time, and then launch another clip from the same track. Follow Action is a way to do this. (7:35)
