Ableton Live 11 : Session View (Beginner's Tutorial)

[@tlewiscl]

watched about 6-7 tutorials and so many skipped the little details that, when id follow their steps, i wouldn’t get in the same place because of so. i downloaded ableton literally last saturday so 0 idea of anything atm. watching this has cleared up so many doubts i had. great video!

[@SylvainChamberlain]

You are the best teacher by far of the Abbleton app. Thank you for sharing your formidable wisdom and beautiful attitude.

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Thank you so much. That means a lot. 😊

[@brianvelenchenko9741]

Your videos are clear and helpful and convey your skill with and knowledge of the program. I've tried learning Live a couple of times in the past, but have always gone back to FL Studio because of my familiarity with it and its legendary workflow. I came back for a third time to help a technically challenged friend realize his plan to use it for accompaniment in a solo setting, and found one of your videos. I had the basics down in three days and two weeks in have sufficient proficiency to begin helping him. Thank you so much for sharing your time and expertise. Please keep uploading content. Your tutorials are the best on KZbin.

What a wonderful story to read and hear! That's amazing. Thank you also for taking the time to comment and to share that with me. Give me some insane confidence that I'm doing the right thing. Happy to have helped and glad to have you here.

[@AndrewJohnson-ku9rd]

This was perfect. I understood the basics, but I was really looking for someone to put it all together in a practical example, thanks!

Becky I found you on Twitch along with Char_DJ and Goudha after falling when I fell in love DNB. I quickly started spinning and now I am being taught the production by you for every aspect, thanks a ton!

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Oh!! Wonderful to hear. I love the Twitch sphere. It really is a pleasure to play there. Glad to have you here too. 😁

[@Plenityd]

Perfect timing! Thanks

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Yeah! Happy to hear 😁

[@DaKink]

[@s_e_a_r_c_h]

Awesome video!

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Thanks mate 🥰

[@draconianrhythms]

I think this is a really good walkthrough of Session View - nice one

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Thanks so much 😊

[@danjwheatley]

Thanks for a great roundup of one of ableton's killer features! Btw you can also press cmd D on a scene itself to duplicate the whole thing - live seems to be full of these little shortcuts and I'm always discovering more!

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Indeed you can! I didn't think about that for this video but yes you are absolutely right. CMD + D works on pretty much anything. My favourite shortcut by far.

[@blacklegacyassets]

I wanna try this I only use arranger view and use session view to change the mixer level

[@prestonessence]

Let's hear it for session view! Session view was my introduction to Ableton Live. Arguably one of its first killer features along with warping. Arrangement view may be the most commonly used workflow today, but I still like to use session view as a scratchpad to sketch out initial ideas.

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Session view is great for performance and sketching out initial ideas. I'm looking forward to using it more on stream. Thanks for the comment Preston! 😁😁

[@wrigna1]

Is there a way to tell ableton to sequentially play each scene for a specific amount of bars automatically?

[@4lifebmxboy]

Is there a way for me to see all of the Keys in 4:29? I wouldn't understand how to know when to shift up or down to match the keys.

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Hi Malik you can't see the keys when doing this but it is some basic music theory knowledge. When you shift the pitch up and down, you are moving 1 semi-tone each time. 1 semi-tone is moving to the next note on th keyboard. For example C (white key) to a C# (black key). Hope that can help a little bit with understanding. Thanks for watching the video and for your comment.

[@EstiverBoyzo]

So it’s like maschine software workflow from native instruments?

[@BeckySaifMusic]

I've not looked at Maschine for a long time so I'm not sure

[@sumantaart]

i am plying with midi keyboard

[@Buhassanali]

Thanks, I have a question if you don't mind, I recorded an audio using Amplitube 5 , exported as wave, when i load the audio track into Ableton live 11 it sounds faster! what I am doing wrong?

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Potentially auto warp on import. Go to preferences and turn it off. Try importing the audio again and see if that stops it from happening.

[@Buhassanali]

@@BeckySaifMusic Thanks , will try it tonight

[@herxdnb3894]

Cool video. I still avoid the session view like the plague, though 😹😹

[@BeckySaifMusic]

Hahaha i know the feeling!!

[@sumantaart]

suppose i have taken four instruments track in session view, how i shall play one instrument which i selected....my problem while i play one selected track rest of track playing together in ableton 11

[@BeckySaifMusic]

I'm sorry I don't understand what you have written. Can you try to rephrase and hopefully I can help you

[@88keysLA]

You would have to press the stop button under the instruments you don’t aren’t using at the moment.

[@jazzzman1000]

Mute the other tracks

[@jazzzman1000]

In Session View when I double-click on a track, it does not show up in waveform view in the bottom pane?

[@hjkhhjkh3635]

I don't know why ut when I trigger a clip, the one next to it plays as well.
