Ableton for Beginners - (An Introduction to Ableton Live)

[@SimplicityOfficial]

Leave it to InspirAspir! He probably creates the best Tutorials on youtube. Goes nice and slow, Speaks clearly, and explains why hes doing everything. Keep em coming man ;D

[@InspirAspir]

Hey thanks man! I really appreciate that you think that, have a great day ;D

[@zxv5573]

you should do one for fl studio (if you use it) i know alot of artists use it

[@rainbowsixsiege_n_collegestuff]

zxv I recommend you the tutorials MDK made

[@Gritzly]

FL sucks, in my opinion Ableton has better audio stock plugins and is very basic and simple for use.

[@photicsonar]

Simplicity Absolutely!

[@ChrisStrompolos]

Jesus. FINALLY. A clear, intelligent human being explaining the basics of Ableton. Methodical, well-paced, intuitive. 98% of the tutorials on YT are convoluted, boring and make me want to shoot myself in the face. THANK YOU.

[@carlospolanco4693]

LOL

[@scoppysizzy]

Premeditated Murder!

[@greedfox7842]

I agree, ever tutorial made a musician is garbage, including this one. I watched it over and over and a this point I'm convinced he is using a completely different software. can't connect my midi keybox POS, or made it made noise with a keyboard... why are all musicians autistic?

[@tusitalapasolo1027]

Lol tell me abt it hahaha

[@nameinvain6]

Right? Only one that i could sit through.

[@luminlp]

This is why I subscribed to you, your tutorials. They give a tone that makes me want to learn more, and not want to fall asleep while watching them. So professional, man. Keep it up!

[@InspirAspir]

Thank you, I really appreciate it! I'm grateful to have followers that motivate me like this, thank you very much

[@luminlp]

No problem, man. Thanks for replying.

[@kbawesome101]

Real talk.

[@InspirAspir]

Welcome to Ableton for Beginners! The goal of this video is to explain Ableton's interface so you can easily navigate the software when creating music. If you have always wanted to make music, but just didn't know how, then this should be the first step you take to learn how to produce music!

[@_prestonmarx]

InspirAspir how do you use the light effects that are in you're effect series for launchpad covers

[@joelaunchpad6485]

Stryfen FTW MidiExtension he also have tut for installing for MidiExt

[@_prestonmarx]

Joe Launchpad thanks bro and InspirAspir

[@yoink6299]

What version is this?

[@yoink6299]

InspirAspir would I need a microphone or anything to make the music better?

[@johnroderick7260]

This is my first DAW. And I needed a little splainin (-_-). This was the 3rd video of this type i viewed and wow, it explained the basics with much more clarity and speed without rushing through anything allowing me to start tracking both live and midi devices. Extremely helpful!

[@lindseyykaitlin]

I just started a music production class and was so overwhelmed, if only I found this video earlier, it would have been soooooo helpful.

[@lockhrt6961]

Surely We need a second part of this tutorial series....it's great as always.Thanks for explaining it so clearly.

[@Bamboogalou]

I'd love a car with actual bells and whistles, sounds like a good time.

[@javierbennett5778]

u could make a song out of these said bells and whistles

It’s so hard 😩

[@jacksdaddy13]

Oh man you are a life saver! I just bought a launchkey mini for my son, he was so hyped to start making music but we didn’t know how to begin and he was getting seriously demotivated. Enter this tutorial, and now we are getting somewhere! Really nice intro, can’t wait to get into the rest of your tutorials. Thanks so much!

[@starburst381]

Honest to God the BEST tutorial I've ever watched on ANY topic EVER.

[@cole1]

this background music made my head explode

[@ivandavies5242]

Absolutely horrific.

[@wayno1285]

can i just say i love channels like this. Nothing but pure, raw education and its free. keep it up man

[@itsmyracle]

I literally teared up from happiness from just clicking the tab button man. THANK YOU. I was so overwhelmed like omg you're an angel bro. I'm a visual artist diving into music because it's my dream---- so when you made the palette and canvas reference I understood! Long story short thanks 10000x!

[@iiBeatzzz]

I don't know what it is, but out of all the tutorials I have gotten into. The way you teach is by far the best and so easy to follow in the best way possible. Alot of other people are so hard to follow and aren't interesting enough to want to watch more. You have the perfect balance of all of that and I thank you for that!

[@taylorfoerster6272]

Attitude and insight are extremely important for tutorial videos, which is often left out. You've done both, well done :)

[@noirmonet8522]

I appreciate you so very much! Typically when exploring KZbin tutorials I skip the "super intricate" ones because they end up being more wordy then informative. You did a fine job. Accomplished what could have taken hours in just under 20 mins. Thank you and I look forward to checking out your channel. (Good call on leaving it just the way it is!)

[@thierrydiatta2475]

One of the best tutorials ever

[@נתניאלסלם-ל6ס]

Literally am going from using Ableton to soft and tNice tutorials helped trendously as a beginner. Thank you so so much for tNice tutorials!!

[@JohnthePixelizedGuy]

I really love the way you make your videos man. The few videos I've seen from you have just been all-around great and I'm definitely subscribing after seeing this. Thanks man and keep up the good work!

[@SmithEricL]

My man. Thank you for a great explanation. I figured I'd break out my AKAI and Ableton software with the current global situation and try to make some music. Please keep creating these basic how to and getting started videos.

[@Mariem-du2th]

I love you just for the tab info. Clear, straight to the point explanation for people who just don't know. This is the second comment I've ever made on youtube. Awesome.

[@KitCatStudio]

THIS IS THE BEST AND MOST HELPFUL TUTORIAL I HAVE EVER SEEN IN ANY FIELD OR SOFTWARE

[@Wheelfaker]

This is not my personal YT-Acc, I'm using the laptop of a friend of mine but I just have to comment and thank you so much!!! So much information in such a quick and accurate video... wow... you really helped me out :)

[@CSRLaunchpad]

Tutorial is still good in 2022. I remember you from my old days of Launchpad back in 2015-17, so glad to see you here again bro :D

[@ZAZOZH43]

This video is amazing. I just found out about you last night and already watched all your videos. Your hilarious.

[@lucianovalle2406]

I wanna thank you very much for this video, cause I'm brand new at this DAW thing and it was really helpful. Best regards man...

[@psyfrocitywriter3048]

I'll be getting a laptop this week and plan on getting Ableton. This was a very helpful video, as I have never even seen Ableton before. Thanks for sharing!

[@asvinnn]

Finally a good tutorial! I just got a Launchkey and was soooo confused, thanks to you now I know what I'm doing!

[@victoriadessau550]

Asvinn I also just got a launchkey mk2

[@andrewo.6682]

@Mogs Max The launchkey is the piano version of that.

BEST VIDEO ON KZbin TO UNDERSTAND THE BASICS OF ABLETON

[@BReal477]

Thank you Bro, this was a lot of help for me. I just downloaded this application for school for music and production,and this video was extremely helpful. We have been using Logic Pro, for our music making and this seems somewhat similar.

[@neilhume7049]

That was extremely helpful and answered all the questions about 'what does this thing do'!

[@Whitegixxerboy]

youre amazing man iactually didnt fall asleep and was listening with passion

[@avationmusic]

Not exactly new to making music, but i’m considering switching from FL to ableton. this helped a lot!

[@shiva.singh.361]

Well I know I'm a bit late but, How did it go? Do you switched from FL to Ableton or decided to remain with FL? And If yes, then Have you became comfortable with Ableton? I'm trying to do the same and I'm a little confused... Please answer if you can sir!

[@sidbates3423]

Thank you Sir I'm a Bass player getting my feet wet in recording my own music and watching the tutorial has shed light on what to know from scatch again thanks.

[@Rithikasharon]

Thank you so.. much! Very Useful information !!✨️

[@johnnyjr7495]

great tutorial, you explained everything intricately and with a good pace, thank you

[@viviannehung8431]

Thank you so much! I can not wait to start setuping. I want to create original soft for comrcials and shows alongside my many other

[@davincitesalini5320]

concise and precise i now have the ability to function within this matrix . .. now onto the song creation one

[@B1SQ1T]

Omg dude this is such an amazing tutorial!! Just after u finished explains the big rectangles everything already made so much sense an I’m only like 5 minutes in!

[@damiandomanski7521]

Well explained, very clear! It's actually worth watching this video before you even open Ableton for the first time so that you're familiar with the interface and it's not overwhelming. Thanks!

[@Krabbykabbyfilms]

Thank you for this video! It really helps those of us who aren't tech savvy but want to be.

[@mahdialin9721]

Bro I love you , like i watched other tutorials and none of them are nowhere near good as you!! I just subscribed. Keep them coming , you have my support

[@AWALLOFFICAL]

I've been waiting for someone to make a good understandable tutorial series of production, thank you

[@alejandromendozaamador2074]

IT WORKED, THANKS I'VE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOREVER, BUT NO TUTORIAL COULD EXPLAIN IT AS YOU DID

[@vikki_music7]

That intro beat!😍

[@timebomb8380]

Before your video I basically knew nothing about the program.. You got me started! Very nice intro video! Thanks

[@shanes.6227]

switching from logic to Ableton, thanks for this GREAT tutorial

[@irymnas]

This tutorial taught me everything I needed to know to get started! thank you so much for uploading it!!

[@FXWLL]

Gonna gonna go thru this and brush up. Been using Ableton for years but always surprised at the amount I dont know.

[@InspirAspir]

I feel the same way! Just going through everything to make this video made me remember/learn features that seem really handy that I haven't been using on a regular basis :D

[@FXWLL]

InspirAspir Yeah totally. Always get into routines of working. Sometimes its good to just get back to basics

HI iam from Austria!You see your video goes over the world :-)!I have seen soo many videos, but this is the best one!!thx for sharing you are rescue me,because I dont know anything about this!!

[@mimi.musicofficial]

Even though I'd say my producing level is intermediate, and this video is targeted for beginners, it's really helped me to experiment/further my music game with other DAWS other than FL Studio. And if you think about it, Ableton and FL do have a lot of simularities!

[@nerveboy5168]

Video was dope. Im new and learning the controls of the software. I just started learning how to record and make sounds, however i cant seem to hear the music in a playback. You should make an in depth video that covers how to make a complete song from start to finish! This was helpful doh. LuGO

[@vegankotletka6468]

the best tutorial! clear and basic! THANK YOU!

[@justinhalverson9928]

This is awesome, dude! Thank you for the resource and the time you took to make this. Super bomb, and I am a musician who has been scratching at the question of how t** f*** to get started in Abelton. Thanks man!

[@vyolavyolette6641]

It'll be great to have an explanation to how you opened the piano roll or sequencer, a critical component of any DAW to enable users to compose their music. Your video showed the piano roll in two quick flashes and I never got the chance to see how you opened that window!

[@joaquinscopel3680]

Very nice and well explained. Every tNice tutorialng is crystal clear and easily understandable.

[@carlosofficiellouis9421]

Thank you very much man, seriously you helped a lot i started from 0 to 10.

[@richardadamson6642]

yes plz. this video was vey good. have not found tutorial this good .

[@xenzirril]

Thank you for keeping this video up. While I've messed with audio editors for years, I've never even heard of Ableton until this month. My fault for staying in my own rut. But I had questions and was a little too embarrassed to ask around. This video covered everything I needed to know and now I'm excited to find a device I can go get to begin using Ableton. I don't do music, but I do have a need to make some low-key sounds for backgrounds. Probably overkill, but it seems like with the library there will be more than enough tools to get what I need. Thanks again!

[@Feesh33]

Thank you for this tutorial. Best one I've come across.......and I have learned a lot so far. I hope that you have more.

[@slimbeaux]

My Dear Sir, that was fabulous. Learned so much new about Ableton and how to get things done. I am originally from iOS (iPad) music but was finding it hard to make things happen there, hence, my trip to the laptop domain. Having said that, I even learned a few new things about the iOS music game also. It might have been longer then you expected but well worth it, with not a wasted moment. Thank you so much for taking me to school; I am Grateful. Now to watch your next one. #Grateful.

[@danielalexandre5267]

Great video. I came from using Samplitude & FL Studio and I was truly lost on Ableton Live. Finally a video that explains everything clearly. Thanks ! :)

[@CHRISTWARD]

I started other videos but there were a lot of assumptions that I knew what to do. I did not. Hoping this will be better.

[@Aum_Palapon]

Thank you for explaining this thoroughly!

[@Sponsi_PL]

Wait wait wait wait wait... how did you switch to this view at 11:24?????????????????????? THIS IS FUCKING ESSENTIAL.

thank you for this!! i already knew most of it, but its good to hear it from a expert

Thanks dude this really helped me a lot I did the steps that's you did thanks man!

[@joeserao2496]

All I can say is thank you for such a clear simple explanation of the basics of this DAW. It is exactly what I've been looking for at a slow enough pace for me to absorb the information. Looking forward to exploring more of your videos. As a beginner in the realm of music making, I am having a hard time grasping the concepts for what I am looking to do as a drummer with an SPDXS sampler. These videos should be a great starting point for me. You make no assumptions that newbies know anything which is perfect for this level.

[@timmer92211]

Thank You, InspirAspir! I'm starting to catch on...

[@skylerwiltshire1967]

Please make more! For years I've wanted to make music but didn't know how. I've been looking at tutorials before but they were too complicated xD

[@InspirAspir]

I think I will continue to make more, don't worry! Hope my tutorial videos will teach you/inspire you to make your own content :D
