Spend a weekend with Ableton Live at an Ableton Certified Training Center! In just two days, this fun, intensive Ableton class will introduce you to the skills and techniques you need to start producing your own tracks. The course includes getting set up, using audio and MIDI clips, arranging your track, using drum loops, warping, mixing, and processing with effects like filters, vocoders, delay, and reverb. All weekend Ableton classes are taught in small groups at the historic Mack Sennett Studios in Silver Lake.

My instructor is a legend! Not only did he go out of his way for me, but he taught me some valuable lessons along the way. Makes me look forward to what's coming next! I'm already getting messages from other musicians wanting to collaborate and some from people wanting me to get on board with their community. Perhaps I'm stubborn but, I think I'll wait to see whats round the corner first. Loved it! - Matthew, Music Production student
