Online Tutorials

 

Ableton live tutorials:

This morning’s fun and games. Rather pleased to have a track labelled “Alien”. Reminded of just how good was when it came to teaching me Ableton, encouraging me not to be intimidated by it. Steve Gisby, Composer and Music educator, ICMP London

I offer skype/ google hangout sessions in the form of either pre determined courses or help you with an ongoing project, or discuss how ableton might help for a future project.

There are a huge number of tutorials on Ableton Live on youtube, what I offer is a one-to-one consultation in real time.

The majority of online tutorials are aimed at conventional music , I also offer perspectives from outside this box, i.e. people involved in sound art, complex time signatures, experimental ideas, avant garde approaches..

I offer impartial advice; I am  not affiliated with Ableton live or any other software developer.
