- This is the first video in a series on how Guitar Players can learn Ableton, perfect for beginners to the DAW (Digital Audio Workstation.) This video is very much a starter package for guitarists and musicians to learn how to use Ableton from the ground up. In this series, I am not presuming any prior knowledge of how to use Ableton, Guitar Interfaces, etc.

Great video... from a guy that started on a tascam 4track cassette "Studio" recorder back in the day.
It’s funny that I see a lot of folks using the tascam again. Almost as an effect in the chain in order to get that analog hiss and sound. That’s the stuff that always makes me bummed that I’ve lost/sold so much gear over the years. No matter what the thing is, it eventually becomes “vintage gear” and thus is sought after!
(To be honest, I’ll just use something like RC-20 to get that tape wobble/hiss sound!)
Thank you!!
Finally someone did the video I have been waiting for!!!
thank you
Awesome video, I just followed you and I'm hype for your next video Keep going you're in the right direction !!
Really appreciate this. I'm totally new to recording software & all of the videos I've seen gloss over some aspect, assuming I already understand it. You put yours together in an easy to understand way & I look forward to more! Very excited to see the information on how to make custom drum tracks in ableton.
Awesome to hear! And that is EXACTLY why I started these videos. I think a lot of RUclips lesson stuff tends to ignore or gloss over the foundational stuff. Either it is pros thinking "everyone knows this" or it just isn't interesting enough for them to make a video about.
But I think that leads to these knowledge gaps-- Where someone knows some advanced ideas, but is too embarrassed to ask for clarity on a basic topic!
Now, after all that said: I have to go find a youtube tutorial on how to replace the blades of a washing machine. I hope there's a LG tech out there that took my approach to fixing dishwashers! 😀
Love this!! Great video and well presented. And chapters too!
Thank you!! and haha, I'm happy you found the video in the last 20 minutes! I JUST got the chapters working! Glad to have you here! Part 2 should be up in a day or two!
Thank you for doing this !!!
Very informative thank you
Thank you I can’t express how helpful this video was
Excellent to hear!! There is a part 2 as well, where I go over arrangement view as well! Thank you for watching! The channel has changed topic since, but I always keep these videos up so folks like you can find them! Means a lot!
good stuff. cant wait to try it all out
Please let me know how it works out! And if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!
THANK YOU
Good idea for a series! I'll be keeping an eye on this.
Thank you so much, Mat! And please let me know if everything was clear and/or if you'd like to see any topics covered in the future!
@@TheoreticallyMedia As a beginner guitar player, I can say it all seemed pretty clear to me! I wasn't able to physically follow along - I've been struggling with the Reaper DAW for a while - but the concepts were well presented and I imagine anyone with Ableton wouldn't have a problem following along and learning. Good job!
I ❤ the way you explain stuff. Very clear and simple for us Midwestern white boys. You’re a fantastic teacher! 😎 Subscribed, by the way! Keep ‘em comin’!
Thanks so much!! Sorry it took a hot minute to get back to you-- I was on a bit of a YT hiatus. But super happy to hear that the tutorial was helpful! I'm going to do one on Live Looping soon-- Scheduling that for after the holiday break!
Very informative and well explained video! Got here via reddit, best wishes 🍺😀
DUDE, that AAL play-though on your channel! That is a monster! Well done!! And thank you so much for checking out this video! I'll have part 2 coming up in a day or two as well!
@@TheoreticallyMedia Thank you so much for your kind words man. And sure I'll watch the space for your content. Best wishes 🍺
This is an excellent video. I actually like playing to a metronome, but I could not figure out keep metronome on while of was recording. I will just use a drum loop as you did. i should have thought of this. I guess that's why RUclips is so valuable. Thank you!
I'm so happy to hear this! This was actually my first video, and I've been thinking about revising it at some point, but really glad to hear that people are still getting something from it! As an FYI, to keep the metronome ON while recording, there's a little button at the top left corner, it looks like two circles: one filled, and on empty. It is sandwiched between the time signature and the 1 bar (global quantization). If you click that button on, the infernal clicking will begin as soon as you hit play!
Again, thank you so much for watching!!
very helpful, thanks
Excellent to hear!! Thank you for the comment!
Thanks for this! Spent all day searching for this video after the horrible reddit guitar mods killed your post about this video before I could have the time to come back to the post and watch. Glad I found it again. Keep this stuff up!
Oh man, I'm sorry to hear that, but happy you found it! Yeah, Reddit can get finicky with that. I think the link is still up on r/guitarlessons, but not on r/guitar? I don't really get it, I have for sure seen tutorial lessons on r/guitar...alas! But, again: super happy that you found it again!!
❤thank so much
Oh, so glad to hear! Sorry, this is a bit of an older video, so it’s a little rough, but I’m glad the content cuts through the choppy delivery!
🙏🏼
Yo , this was really helpful video bro . Thank you sooo much , love from india .
I glad to hear that! (And ha! Sorry it took so long to respond!)
Great video
Thank you very much, Allen!! And thank you for the sub! Part 2 will be coming up later this week! So happy to have you along for the ride!
Very helpful
Excellent to hear! There is also a part 2 on arrangement mode that you might find useful as well!
Since I'm new to this what I want to do instead of using an amp VST is record from my real Blackstar HT-1R amp's emulated output into my Scarlett Solo. The thought is to video my "live" home guitar performance from iPhone and later marry up the Ableton Live 11 Lite audio recording with it in a Video Editor for a final video clip result. I can add a drum track in Ableton, etc. Can that be done? Later on I'll try clean guitar input and the amp and effects VST's.
My Abelton Live doesn't have "Amp", how do I get/download that. I can't find it on the Abelton site.
Im using Ableton live lite, I'm using midi grooves from Ezrummer 3 so I can record my guitar over the track. For some reason I can't hear the drums when I go to record my guitar track over them, It will only let me hear them play back when I select the solo/cue button and only lets me select one at a time. Is there a solution to this?
I don't need a copy of Ableton but love this idea for a series and algorithms!
So happy you found it!! To be honest, as I'm planning it all out, there are a lot of non-guitar topics (like Keys/Midi, Mixing, and obviously drums) that I want to cover-- but I think the thought is: It'll all be taught from the viewpoint of a guitarist, since that's the only instrument I'm actually moderately proficient at!
May God bless you with a dozen of 57 les Paul's, so you can donate me 1 ❤❤. 😂😂
Haha, I’ll take 11 for sure! Gladly gift you the Greeny as well!
how do you have no latency!?
Well, on a Mac using a Focusrite Scarlett. I think the Mac audio stuff can be a little less finicky than Windows drivers at times.
Thanks any ways but your presentation is disorganized, you know some stuff but don't know how to teach it
Eh, it was the first video I ever did...I've gotten a lot better since.
Wow, what a terrible comment. At least appreciate the work that went into it.
Thanks for the video. I think you did well. Someone didn’t hug that commenter enough as a child
It actually got me started so it worked. Can we get a link for that drum loop?
This might be the best video I’ve seen for session view and getting started with recording guitar. Thanks for helping out this drummer get up and running
😂😂😂
Music in background is intensely annoying and totally unnecessary
Im new to all of this and to guitar. Im having trouble when I play back what I record. The guitar sounds fine when Im playing and the sound is coming through my speakers. However when I playback the recording it cuts in and out and almost feels like I have a delay even though I am playing clean with no effects or plugins running. IId really appreciate some help sorting this out.
