AV for Live 9 404 - Producing Techno and House

This course starts with a series of tutorials that help you build efficient studio sessions with Lives default set template and new default track templates. Then you’re off to organizing the browser for quick access to your favorite sounds, loops and effects. Lives Session view is typically regarded as a performance tool, but Noah shows how to make full use of it in the studio for the most intuitive workflow possible. Join producer and Certified Trainer Noah Pred on a production journey as he creates a House & Techno track from start to finish in just two hours with Live 9! Come along for the ride... Looking at the new Audio to MIDI conversion tools and Abletons deceptively powerful MIDI Effects, you learn how to generate new musical ideas out of thin air and then edit them like a pro with an in-depth look at Lives Audio and MIDI clip capabilities. There are all kinds of crazy tips and tricks packed throughout the tutorial as Noah shows how to generate unique textures and hypnotic polyrhythms. You see how to create potent dynamic changes for stale loops and give them all unique swing timing with the Groove Pool – all non-destructively! Once youve got enough ideas ready in the fertile sketch pad of the Session view, Noah shows how to record them into the Arrange view with maximum efficiency. From there, you see Noahs advanced arrangement and automation tricks that are sure to give you all kinds of new creative ideas. Next he takes you through his Automatic Track Method to get you through the process of completing your track. Finally, you see how to use Lives newest effect devices to get the most out of your mix to make it as clean and warm or as trashy as you like it. Through it all, youll gain insight as to the motivation and discipline behind a hard working producer: its one thing to jam out in the studio, but seeing your ideas through to a finished track is a whole other game.
