The Secret To Making Tech House Like The PROS

Here's a tutorial on how I would produce a Tech House song from scratch in Ableton. Follow along with me so that by the time the video is over you have a song too!

Remember to comment any questions or feedback as I read all the comments and respond when I'm able to.

Thanks so much for watching!
Cheers!

Wow the production value on these videos is incredible! I'd go as far as saying this is one of the channels with the most well produced videos in the production niche. Well done Ethan, love learning from you!

Ethan, no word of a lie. I fucking love you. For about 15 years+ I've just struggled to get my head around DAW's and music making, and finally after watching your content it's starting to click. Thank you so much man!

Damn this is probably the best music production tutorial I have seen so far! At the same time you are explaining some complete beginner stuff and some more advanced stuff. I personally belong towards the latter and am here to learn about house production.

The tip for the turning volume down on all tracks simultaneously is gold alone.

Ethan i cant thank you enough! This video in specific and some of your other content has really sparked that creative fire in me again. I stopped making music about 6 years ago due to life and our first child but i don't know what it was about your video that just gave me that itch i needed to scratch again. Thank you my friend and ill be joining your paid program soon.

Do you guys even realize how helpful 23:20-23:27 is? This man just demonstrated a visual example of how to do something I’ve been wondering how to do for so long

[emlad]

wow, your videos are seriously soooo informative and insanely helpful for a noob like me lol! I have a ton of music theory knowledge and I write and sing, but producing has always been confusing to me - but in one day from watching your tutorials, I have learned ableton really well and I think I'll have a sharable tune in NO time!!

[cityraintunes]

From one teacher to another, you rule man. Great job all around.

You're just crazy, humor, everything is clear and to the point. Your energy makes me smile and look attentively at the same time. I like and subscribe :) And greetings from Siberia

[karianjahikiama]

It always blows me away with how well you breakdown and explain what you're doing in detail, taking the dive into becoming a music producer now seems less daunting than before - will be frequently revisiting this vid for tips and tricks along the way, thanks for an excellent start!

[iTimestretcher]

OMG! You earned my sub with the "paste time" tip, I can't believe I never saw that there! Thank you :)

[RussJohnsConnects]

Love the process and the way you explain the element. Clear and concise and thanks for the time, effort, and energy for the tutorial. 🏴‍☠❤🏴‍☠

[rij]

Very well explained and i really appreciate how you wrote the different "instruments" rather than just saying it not a lot of YouTubers do that. got my sub.
