Ableton Live 11 : Session View (Beginner's Tutorial)

The session view is unique to Live and allows you to perform your ideas and switch up the arrangement. It is non-linear (unlike the arrangement view), making it super versatile for music production and song writing. We go into more detail in my Ableton Live 11 course, which you can find below.

watched about 6-7 tutorials and so many skipped the little details that, when id follow their steps, i wouldn’t get in the same place because of so.
i downloaded ableton literally last saturday so 0 idea of anything atm.
watching this has cleared up so many doubts i had. great video!

You are the best teacher by far of the Abbleton app. Thank you for sharing your formidable wisdom and beautiful attitude.

Becky I found you on Twitch along with Char_DJ and Goudha after falling when I fell in love DNB. I quickly started spinning and now I am being taught the production by you for every aspect, thanks a ton!

Your videos are clear and helpful and convey your skill with and knowledge of the program. I've tried learning Live a couple of times in the past, but have always gone back to FL Studio because of my familiarity with it and its legendary workflow. I came back for a third time to help a technically challenged friend realize his plan to use it for accompaniment in a solo setting, and found one of your videos. I had the basics down in three days and two weeks in have sufficient proficiency to begin helping him. Thank you so much for sharing your time and expertise. Please keep uploading content. Your tutorials are the best on YouTube.

Another awesome video! Keep 'm coming!

[AndrewJohnson-kurd]

This was perfect. I understood the basics, but I was really looking for someone to put it all together in a practical example, thanks!

[draconianrhythms]

I think this is a really good walkthrough of Session View - nice one

[RobChinn]

Awesome thank you and so well presented :)

[danjwheatley]

Thanks for a great roundup of one of ableton's killer features! Btw you can also press cmd D on a scene itself to duplicate the whole thing - live seems to be full of these little shortcuts and I'm always discovering more!

[wrigna]

Is there a way to tell ableton to sequentially play each scene for a specific amount of bars automatically?

[prestonessence]

Let's hear it for session view! Session view was my introduction to Ableton Live. Arguably one of its first killer features along with warping. Arrangement view may be the most commonly used workflow today, but I still like to use session view as a scratchpad to sketch out initial ideas.

Is there a way for me to see all of the Keys in 4:29? I wouldn't understand how to know when to shift up or down to match the keys.

[blacklegacyassets]

I wanna try this I only use arranger view and use session view to change the mixer level

[EstiverBoyzo]

So it’s like maschine software workflow from native instruments?

[herxdnb]

Cool video. I still avoid the session view like the plague, though 😹😹

[Buhassanali]

Thanks, I have a question if you don't mind, I recorded an audio using Amplitube 5, exported as wave, when i load the audio track into Ableton live 11 it sounds faster! what I am doing wrong?

[jazzzman]

In Session View when I double-click on a track, it does not show up in waveform view in the bottom pane?

[sumantaart]

suppose i have taken four instruments track in session view, how i shall play one instrument which i selected....my problem while i play one selected track rest of track playing together in ableton 11

[hjkhhjkh]

I don't know why ut when I trigger a clip, the one next to it plays as well.
