I am 30% into the course and loving it so far! i've tried to learn Ableton through youtube over the past year and it is just so hard since there wasn't clear direction. This is amazing! Lessons are easy to follow, well produced and the curriculum just flows so well. Would recommend to anyone thinking about it! For those thinking it is too expensive, you get so much in this course that i'd honestly be happy to pay more haha. Super well done to you and RKC! Best to thing happen in 2020 haha :D
I rarely comment on RUclips! - Completed RKC's Ableton course w Mary Spender here in UK during pseudo “lockdown 2.0”. I’ve used Ableton for about 10 yrs in a home hobby context, but there were frustrating gaps in my knowledge and clunky elements to my workflow. 80% of the course I kinda knew/understood/do already etc but it was the 20% I didn't the know that was (pure gold) totally worth the time and effort. Unlike a lot of RUclips music tech content that tends to be wrapped up in product pushing or self promotion, the course was pure quality education, humbly, but passionately presented by both Rachel and Mary. Big thanks for a great genuine learning experience during difficult times.
This course is outstanding. 100% worth it Any comments saying it is too expensive are ridiculous when you examine the amount of quality and content. Clear, concise and not overwhelming. Amazing teaching. As suggested, start with , if you are just starting out.
Markus Junnikkala I know, it looks weird to me, too. From the interweb series of tubes: “Learned is the generally accepted way of spelling it in the United States and Canada, while the rest of the English-speaking world seems to prefer learnt for now.”
When I started writing/recording I started on tape. Casettes, then 1/4 inch then 2-inch, mini disc, CD, then digital. From Protools and cakewalk to Logic and now Ableton. If you are truly wanting to a pro musician, you need to be a lifelong student. There will always be more to learn. ALWAYS. I will absolutely check out the courses!
I thought I would be taken through your journey of learning ableton and I might catch some tricks. But this was just one big ad for a course with lots of blabla and nothing....
I've been using ableton for a while, I love it because as I'm a singer songwriter I don't want to sound like everyone else. It helps me be fluid in my creativity and make sounds that I normally wouldn't on another daw. Its also easy to use for me in its design
For me the first DAW to feel like a collection of instruments you can jam with, rather than the usual digital tape recorder feel other typical “left to right timeline” DAWs use. Love it, feels like all my gear from the 80/90s!
It‘s a really great course with high quality content! And best of all, it‘s really fun! This course is not just a presentation of features. You also learn how to use these features effectively in your music production. Congrats to both of you!
I'm mainly an FL Studio user, but I've been messing around with Ableton Live Suite 10, and even though I don't really see myself producing full songs on it (just yet), it's nice to change it up since I've been using FL Studio since 2008. I love the warping capabilities and how easy it is to hook up external instruments. I also love the session view, it reminds me of how I use the step sequencer in FL.
Thanks for watching guys! I know this is a bit unusual for the channel but I'm excited to go on this Ableton journey. 🎸Learn Ableton along with me: maryspender.teachable.com/p/how-to-produce-music-in-ableton-live Rachel K Collier: ruclips.net/user/rachelkcollieroff
Oh my goodness, we are the same! I've had the same revelation and have played for 15 years singing with an acoustic guitar. I spent 15 years writing out music and hiring other musicians to play with me, and I just downloaded cover songs royalty free midi files and dragged them into my DAW (logic pro ....gotta figure out how to get it to ableton) but 15 years worht of work, in one move! you can change the sounds and write other parts if you want to and then perform it with a push controller or in your case your novation! what! RKC is amaing and I am definitely going to take her course...just saving up money. I just spent so much building my home studio....but its worth it! Thank you for sharing all these lessons and tools for musicians!
I have the 90 day free trial of Ableton. After many hours of watching videos and reading and struggling, I've managed to create an extremely simple beat... I am a graphic designer and I lost my job during the pandemic. I decided to take some time for myself and learn some new things instead of looking for a job right away. I've played instruments on and off throughout my life but I would say my music knowledge is limited. I'm not too sure what my goals are with all this but I'm enjoying learning guitar and bass again for now!
So excited for the new music!!! You've been an inspiration to me lately, Mary! I am also looking forward to learning more about ableton. It feels more user friendly than other daws I've seen.
I find it funny how those types of guitarists will spend hours finding the perfect amp/guitar/pedal setup for the exact tone they're looking for but guffaw at slaving over a laptop for the same thing.
@@mowkikowski I'm Guilty for saying shit like that around 13-15, but once you realize music is just an expression of one's self or culture then you realize people need to get off their gatekeeping bs. I'd like to see them do something like mixing kicks and snares in a way that swings and grooves like some Jame Brown, J dilla or a Funk feel in general. Promise you they don't got the drip until they get over ego.
Howdy y'all. Guitarist, tutor and producer hear to speak for those gatekeeper guitarists - It's the same as anything - They learn everything they know about the guitar know from 60's - 90's music. A fear of being outdated is all it is. This type of music is ever evolving, and even in this video Mary describes the frustration a "musician" feels when faced with the daily of what "producers" go through. These guitarists could learn a lot from the likes of Mary, Rachel K Collier and evn guitarists like Paul Davids. It's 2020. They just need to sort their shit out :')
Got the course and twice now got stuck. I’m not tech savvy and have mightily struggled. I’m the guy who actually needs Rachel on the line, not just on the recording. But here it is 1/1/24 and I am gonna try again. I have other YT support on deck and will also try to find real people in my town because I have not yet broken through. I make things with my hands, I actually make and restore instruments when not playing guitar or piano and writing… I’m also a skilled artist and painter,.. I’m not a total knucklehead ..but so far, my tech skills are too basic to learn Abelton via this course. But here we go, new year… maybe I’ll make some real progress this time🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽🤞🏽
Yes, Mary! This is exactly where I am. I bought a Focusrite and it had Ableton light. Perfect timing for my situation. I'll be checking out the videos. Thank you!
Thanks Mary, now I'm inspired. I have tried to learn it on youtube and other resources but havent been dedicated enough. Time to try again. Ableton is kind of daunting as a DAW noob lol!
I am a beginner and I am recently producing on Ableton Live 10. I started producing on fl studio. Ableton is so rich DAW and the work flow is smooth. #love_ableton.
Ya'll might also wanna look into FL Studio, it's way more user friendly than Ableton Live, and has an infinite trial period if you dont think you will be able to pay for Ableton after a month of using its trial for free.
not sure what daw you use now, but i was confused by ableton until i watched tutorials and learned and i have problems going to any other daw now! it has the easiest workflow. i used to use Cakewalk Sonar. tutorials are a must with ableton. it's the fastest daw i've worked with, in terms of workflow. everything else seems clunky in comparison...
I use Ableton since 2010 and i would never change to any other DAW. But i didn't understand why people using it mostly for electronic music, and why they stuck with this in mind. I use Ableton mostly to do Orchestral Soundtracks or Metal. Btw: I do not use the Clip Session. For me its like a track is made of Lego Blocks and you puzzle to make it fit and sound good. In arrangement view, i can make the track have a flow and being more dynamic.
It'll be difficult to put trusty old Cubase (22 years of use and counting) to one side. I'll give Ableton and this course a go, this is going to be fun!!
Yes Ableton is great for noobs but also quite advanced once you dig deeper. Pro tools is just too difficult unless your a pro producer. Not sure what you were using before ableton? The blending fades tool is unbelievable not just for fades but for editing you can really make sudden key changes etc sound quite natural, You would't know it had been edited at all.
Love that description Kristian! You are so right - it's great to get stuck in but then when you get confident you can go so deep for performing and producing xxx
I just finished the performing with Ableton you did with Rachel - great course. I was wondering if you had actually done any performing using Live as part of your set?
Hi Susanne! You can do it with any versh but check the FAQs - just certain things are missing! Ableton 10 suite trial is currently 90 days and has no limitations xxx
I love Ableton Live too. I started off with Logic Pro, but a friend of mine convinced me to try Ableton for easier collaboration with him. I dont have a Mac anymore so using Logic isnt an option anymore, which im perfectly ok with. I now use a mix of Ableton Live 10 and Studio One 5 Professional. I like using Ableton for the creative/writing process, especially when it comes to midi and automation, and then Studio One 5 for mixing. I really dont like ableton's mixer view and metering. I still have a lot to learn on both applications
i used to use Cakewalk Sonar, had ableton on a computer for a year before i actually used it, and after mastering it, can't really use any other daw, it has the most streamlined workflow . i do lots of MIDI. however my windows computer died and i have a linux computer now, using LMMS, which is painful, but i arrange the songs in Reaper, which is great, but very different from ableton... ableton may seem daunting at first, but after you learn it , it's super easy and you can throw a song together really fast. i tried sonar again after years of ableton use, and it took me about ten times as long to do things...and, if you really wanna do what Rachel does, ableton is a must -have, especially for it's 'session mode' which correlates to the Push or launchpad style controllers you see in her setup...
@Jesus Requena oh there's so much special about it, I started with studio one too but switching to ableton is literally another world with so many new possibilities
Just bought my first focusrite scarlett solo and it comes with an abelton lite version. It'd be the first daw I ever use so I think I'll give that one a try first :)
...and Rachael is Welsh (Swansea)! Huzzah! Full disclosure: Although I am based in the Seattle region, my mum is from Cardiff and my aunt Sue has lived in Swansea for decades. Ewch Cymru!
Hi Mary you are really irresistible ! 🐅❤️ I tried to sign up but the form wouldn't take my email address and I don't no why but I'll try to figure it out! LOL.... I just have so many problems with this iPad stuff....LOL 🙂❤️✌🏻Bw.🦋
Heeey so happy you came out with this! Before I buy it I Just wanted To know if you guys teach live looping in it since Rachel is an absolute live looping master!
If I primarily want a DAW to record audio (acoustic guitar, piano, sax, etc) is Ableton useful? I would also use virtual instruments on occasion, but no beats, no samples, no looping, etc. Old school, play instruments with my hands, record audio. Is Ableton best for this, vs some other DAW?
I also come from Pro Tools and made the switch to Ableton. I find it a lot more versatile for writing and midi (love their presets and native plugins.) I still like Pro Tools better for recording and manipulating audio and mixing. I think that there is a good balance between the two. If rewire would let us use Ableton's VST capabilities we'd have DAW bliss.
This seems like an awesome compliment to Andrew Haung's Monthly course (which is awesome btw)! It would be awesome if Ableton worked with you guys to offer a discount on their stuff if someone signs up for the course :)
well it came with my focusrite, together with pro tools ..and since pro tools always crashed, I guess I shall learn ableton (as a guitar player) ...is it allright? Or should I learn something different (I'm on windows)...cool video btw!
I have the necessary hardware, since I've been trying out Ableton 10 Live Lite (now renamed Intro?), for some months. But the upgrade to Ableton 10 Live Suite is 423 EUR (20% offer right now), and then $149 for the course. OK, I can do the Ableton 90 days for free, but after 90 days, I need to pay anyway, and 20% more! Suddenly a lot of money at one time! I'm confused! But I have a feeling that this Ableton course is very good! 🙌😁
I love this video Mary! I use Ableton too but my knowledge is extremely limited, I really want to do this course! Also can't wait to hear the new single, it sounds great!
It would be useful to know why you switched to Ableton (if you completely switched).What can it do that Logic can't (if anything). Are you using it for live performance or studio work as well?
Hi Mary/Rachel, I had a look through your FAQ but couldn't see anything on this, I don't have any musical education in terms of music theory which I've found an issue when trying to put something together and ensuring the notes on the right scale, is that a prerequisite for the course you're offering and if not how do you work around that on the course?
10 minute ad, just what i needed
just what I thought.. greatest waste of my time in a long time
Yeah totally. Scam ad demic
Lol, I was having a great Sunday until tapping on this vid… unreal… actually super upset now
I am 30% into the course and loving it so far! i've tried to learn Ableton through youtube over the past year and it is just so hard since there wasn't clear direction. This is amazing!

How much is the course? I’ve just bought the final part of Ableton Suit! Whoop Wooop! Erm can’t use it! Lol
how long does the course take?
This is the longest ad I've watched in a long time
I'm half way through and I was like...ahhhhh this is not what I thought it was. Bye
Ahahahahabbaba wtffff
So do I😂
I'm a huge fan of Mary and Rachel! I'm really excited to do this course!
THANKS SEAN! What a legend also welcome to my patron xxx

Would you say you became ENabletonED after learning it?
I'll see myself out...
LOL i like that one x

Disableton lol
Nice nice, got excited, check my last techno samba and let me excited you!
Enabletont!
This has come at a perfect time for me! Just about to setup a home studio and was planning to use Ableton, looking forward to learning! :)
Nice nice, got excited, check my last techno samba and let me excited you!
Hope it goes well! I’ve tried a bunch of DAWs and Ableton is hands down my favorite! Good luck with your studio and your journey with ableton!
@@beatsmithaudio9245 Thanks! 😊
Is this a 10-minute long advertisement for Rachel's lessons?
I’ve taken Andrew Huang’s class on production, probably one of the best purchases of my life. I’m sure this one is just as good.
When I started writing/recording I started on tape. Casettes, then 1/4 inch then 2-inch, mini disc, CD, then digital. From Protools and cakewalk to Logic and now Ableton. If you are truly wanting to a pro musician, you need to be a lifelong student. There will always be more to learn. ALWAYS. I will absolutely check out the courses!
Hello JDCareyMusic why did you switch from Logic to Ableton? How is it now?
Absolutely fantastic! You two are working together on some great content, I'm hoping it extends further than Ableton, You both are very talented!
I've been learning ableton for just a couple months now and it's been so rad
I thought I would be taken through your journey of learning ableton and I might catch some tricks. But this was just one big ad for a course with lots of blabla and nothing....
That preview of "Ride With You" sounds like it could be on the radio!
Nice nice, got excited, check my last techno samba and let me excited you!
I've been using ableton for a while, I love it because as I'm a singer songwriter I don't want to sound like everyone else. It helps me be fluid in my creativity and make sounds that I normally wouldn't on another daw. Its also easy to use for me in its design
the first time i used session view it felt like magic. So much easier to plan out the pacing and peaks of a song.
YES! xxx
For me the first DAW to feel like a collection of instruments you can jam with, rather than the usual digital tape recorder feel other typical “left to right timeline” DAWs use. Love it, feels like all my gear from the 80/90s!
It‘s a really great course with high quality content! And best of all, it‘s really fun! This course is not just a presentation of features. You also learn how to use these features effectively in your music production. Congrats to both of you!

That snippet of your song at around 6:30 sounds awesome!

Getting closer and closer 2 Pushing that Ableton training link. Thanks
DO NOT WATCH ITS AN AD
Nice idea you two - I too have been teaching myself Ableton for the past 6 months - still learning
Got the course and twice now got stuck. I’m not tech savvy and have mightily struggled. I’m the guy who actually needs Rachel on the line, not just on the recording.

just found this and am starting to learn Ableton however I make more hip hop, rap and latin music. Would this course still be ag good fit for me?
You are inspiring! Thank you!
Yes, Mary! This is exactly where I am. I bought a Focusrite and it had Ableton light. Perfect timing for my situation. I'll be checking out the videos. Thank you!
Thanks Mary, now I'm inspired. I have tried to learn it on youtube and other resources but havent been dedicated enough. Time to try again. Ableton is kind of daunting as a DAW noob lol!
This is perfect for me, I just got Ableton a couple weeks ago.
I am a beginner and I am recently producing on Ableton Live 10. I started producing on fl studio. Ableton is so rich DAW and the work flow is smooth. #love_ableton.
I'm an fl studio user but I like ableton for the live set up so I'm trying to get my head around the differences.
I also use ableton for music production .. I am not that pro but .. now it’s been around 2 years I am in it and I really enjoy it 😃😇🥰
New fan from the course :D ! Love it!
WOW CHEERS BRANDON x
Thanks very much for sharing from Africa
Ya'll might also wanna look into FL Studio, it's way more user friendly than Ableton Live, and has an infinite trial period if you dont think you will be able to pay for Ableton after a month of using its trial for free.
Can't save in trial of FL. But yeah I prefer FL personally, user of over 10 years
Love ableton but mixing and mastering I use Pro tools with waves plugs and hardware ! Nice to see ur upgrading ur self! 👌🏾🎉
I'm currently learning Bandlab. Beat maker, recording, and social media.
I'm curious, so after you learned Ableton in one week, will you keep using it? Some DAWs stick and others don't. I think Ableton is effing confusing.
Loved it, check my last techno samba preview!
not sure what daw you use now, but i was confused by ableton until i watched tutorials and learned and i have problems going to any other daw now! it has the easiest workflow. i used to use Cakewalk Sonar. tutorials are a must with ableton. it's the fastest daw i've worked with, in terms of workflow. everything else seems clunky in comparison...

im also an acoustic instrumentalist who works in Ableton!!!! its awesome
I got hooked to ableton live recently. I used Pro Tools, mainly for mixing, but Live is a lot of fun.
Good timing, I've been using lite for a few months and am thinking about upgrading to suite, I'll look into this. Thanks!
Good timing, was thinking about getting a midi keyboard to spice up my home mood noodlings. Will check this course out.
From analogue guitarist.
This is so great!
It'll be difficult to put trusty old Cubase (22 years of use and counting) to one side. I'll give Ableton and this course a go, this is going to be fun!!
AMAZING Russell! Love the enthusiasm x
WOOOOOOOOOO xxxx

Your storyrelling balancing went so so up! I’m drawned to Your film

Okay, what's it with musicians and golden pineapples?
love that blue guitar
Two cassette decks allowing for overdubbing is fine for me, thanks.
Oldskool yay 🤩🤩
I just finished the performing with Ableton you did with Rachel - great course. I was wondering if you had actually done any performing using Live as part of your set?
Hi Mary, this is what i‘m looking for😃👍! I have a question, is it also impossible to make this course with Ableton Live Lite 10?
Hi Susanne! You can do it with any versh but check the FAQs - just certain things are missing! Ableton 10 suite trial is currently 90 days and has no limitations xxx
Rachel K Collier thank you!

Problem is that most of us can’t fork out £500 for ableton.
The lite version won’t let you export any music so we wasn’t gunna download that.
Wow so good at what you do!! Did you teach yourself or did you get classes to learn??
i used to use Cakewalk Sonar, had ableton on a computer for a year before i actually used it, and after mastering it, can't really use any other daw, it has the most streamlined workflow . i do lots of MIDI. however my windows computer died and i have a linux computer now, using LMMS, which is painful, but i arrange the songs in Reaper, which is great, but very different from ableton... ableton may seem daunting at first, but after you learn it , it's super easy and you can throw a song together really fast. i tried sonar again after years of ableton use, and it took me about ten times as long to do things...and, if you really wanna do what Rachel does, ableton is a must -have, especially for it's 'session mode' which correlates to the Push or launchpad style controllers you see in her setup...
I absolutely love Ableton. The more I learn how to use it, the more I love it.
Samsies
@Jesus Requena I like ableton more than I like my wife am I right
@Jesus Requena oh there's so much special about it, I started with studio one too but switching to ableton is literally another world with so many new possibilities
Music Sucks your name lol
Nice nice, got excited, check my last techno samba and let me excited you!
a proper queen, love rachel's stuff too!
Thank you j2 x
You are good peuple! I like your vidéo you and Rachel!
Sounds great! Can I do the course with Ableton Lite or do I need to buy the big version?
You can get a 90 day free trial of the full ableton. Lite probably won’t have all the features you need for the course
Just bought my first focusrite scarlett solo and it comes with an abelton lite version. It'd be the first daw I ever use so I think I'll give that one a try first :)
...and Rachael is Welsh (Swansea)! Huzzah!
Full disclosure: Although I am based in the Seattle region, my mum is from Cardiff and my aunt Sue has lived in Swansea for decades.
Ewch Cymru!

So Mary were you a big Spender on the full Ableton Live 12 license?
Awesome Sister Awesome
Heeey so happy you came out with this! Before I buy it I Just wanted To know if you guys teach live looping in it since Rachel is an absolute live looping master!

It has been on my pc for months untouched, I think it is time!!
Well, this should be fun, I signed up!
This seems like an awesome compliment to Andrew Haung's Monthly course (which is awesome btw)! It would be awesome if Ableton worked with you guys to offer a discount on their stuff if someone signs up for the course :)
Yes! That would totally make me buy the course to be honest.
well it came with my focusrite, together with pro tools ..and since pro tools always crashed, I guess I shall learn ableton (as a guitar player) ...is it allright? Or should I learn something different (I'm on windows)...cool video btw!
Liking the sound of the new track
I have the necessary hardware, since I've been trying out Ableton 10 Live Lite (now renamed Intro?), for some months. But the upgrade to Ableton 10 Live Suite is 423 EUR (20% offer right now), and then $149 for the course. OK, I can do the Ableton 90 days for free, but after 90 days, I need to pay anyway, and 20% more!
Suddenly a lot of money at one time! I'm confused! But I have a feeling that this Ableton course is very good! 🙌😁
I love this video Mary! I use Ableton too but my knowledge is extremely limited, I really want to do this course! Also can't wait to hear the new single, it sounds great!
At around 6:00 I realised that this is yet another advert from a RUclipsr.
the course is focused on session ? or you can learn how to work in arrengment from finish to end?
Although Ableton is excellent there is Bitwig. Bitwig is very, very similar to Ableton and runs on Windows, macOS and Linux.
And bitwig actually has a good midi implementation.
never heard of bitwig.
@@suryagurung7793 Well now you have. Bitwig launched in 2009. The CEO is an ex Ableton employee. www.bitwig.com
I just finished a Berklee Online class for Logic Pro. It took a heck of a lot longer than a week.
It would be useful to know why you switched to Ableton (if you completely switched).What can it do that Logic can't (if anything). Are you using it for live performance or studio work as well?
Ableton is like having magic audio powers.
Hi Mary/Rachel,
I had a look through your FAQ but couldn't see anything on this, I don't have any musical education in terms of music theory which I've found an issue when trying to put something together and ensuring the notes on the right scale, is that a prerequisite for the course you're offering and if not how do you work around that on the course?
This is like Kate Middleton and Sporty Spice teaming up for a tutorial.
LOL !!!!!!! I don't know if this is a compliment or not but it's funny! haha
@@RachelKCollierRKC All appreciation. Glad you laughed.
I’m soooo glad i read the comments yall saved me some time lol
Interesting! Would love to do more than basic recording in Ableton. I am seriously considering your course
Ahaaa! I just watched an ad. Got it.
I'm very interested about this course but I want to know if is it useful for a Blues/Rock artist or it's more about electronic music ?
Yo Julian! It's not specific to any genre - Mary is obvs more Blues than me- it's really about using ableton to make a finished production! x
