11:51 you talk about the “last video” and “configure audio” but I can’t find your last video. Can you point me in the right direction? These were exactly what I needed. Precise. Thorough.

Thank you!!!

Excellent intro to the UI! I got Ableton Live Lite with my Arturia minilab mkII, and have watched a few tutorials. This is shaping up to be one of the better ones so far. I'm a guitar player, no nothing about piano/keys/synth, but am enjoying making sounds 😎

Respect for not editing out all the details that happen during production 👍

Great presentation.
Good pace, nice conversational tone.
I’be been using live casually for about a year, and there were still some useful nuggets in here for me. I just let it play while I made lunch for the kids.

Hi I am new with Ableton and using a Mac Pro - I purchased the prosonus interface and it came with Ableton Live lite 11- I also purchased a Mac Pro Catalina because I thought it would be easier to drag a QuickTime video into Ableton but I keep getting a circle with a line every time I try to drag into Ableton. Am I doing something wrong? any suggestions as to what I need to do regarding this issue? any help would be greatly appreciated.

I am using ableton more live with midi than using it for loops. My computer does not sync well. I could use some help!

[zevengrams]

Okay I’m not sure answering any questions but I am having a bit of difficulty with my audio I have made a track there 4 vocals outta 4. 2 of them. Sounds are coming from one of ear buds not from both how to get them to sync feed back from both earbuds/monitors I bet such a simple answer need help

[MrDewallday]

Lovely! I hope you can help me. How do you record a live loop session (as it is during the performance) using Ableton? or do you need a separate device/app for that? Thank you sir

me watching this not knowing anything about music production and not understanding lingo o_o

[edgarmoreno]

Too much. In the future, just start making something, going button by button was like watching a PowerPoint presentation where a person clicks and reads the content in each slide. I almost don't want to buy this anymore.
