    Ableton 12 is here! And WOW it was worth the wait. SO many cool new features.
    I've tried to put together the most simple Ableton 12 tutorial that has everything you need, with nothing unnecessary.
    I'm honored to teach you guys the ins and outs of this powerful software and give you the chance to get what's in your head to come out of a pair of speakers.
    If you have any comments or questions let me know below!
    I tried to read all the comments and respond when I can.
    Thanks so much for stopping by, truly.
    Cheers!
    Ethan

    For real though, NEW USER FRIENDLY, like, I know next to nothing about musical theory. He uses all stock sounds and truly wants to educate you with his videos. No click bait title, no half-assed explanation where he flies through the lesson leaving you confused, and isn't doing this to advertise a sample pack you have to buy to follow along in the lesson. This man is here because he genuinely wants us to learn.

    Switching over from FLStudio right now after about 4 years of "mastering" that DAW. And I felt severely limited eventually. Got my hands on Ableton today and your Tutorial is a great help. A lot of similarities between the programs, but it's the simple things that Ableton does the most different. In a way I like, to be honest. And I can already tell I will enjoy the workflow with Ableton a lot more than FLStudio. It served me well. I think its THE daw to learn daws. But Ableton is just so... clean, I dont know how else to put it.

      Any updates? 👀 also what version of each do you have? I have fl producer but I want to switch to ableton, the price difference between versions is steep though, I want to know which version is best to start with!

      I used fl studio since 2011 and i felt super limited and in 2015 i decided to use ableton live and booom , my ideas got more and more better my organization went better and i think that was the best thing i ever do , so congratulation for finally switch to the real music produccion world🎉

      FL studio being the best DAW to learn DAWS us actually the opposite of truth. It's one of the easier DAWS to learn, but the format is so uniquely it's own, what you learn is not very transferable to other DAWS, unlike Pro Tools, Reaper or Ableton.
      The best DAWS that teach you to be the most effective with DAWS universally would actually be something more like Reaper - seeing as how learning it's very un-user friendly UI will make you super prepared to learn new DAWS.

      Went through the same process. Used FL to start. But I went to a music production class that only used Ableton. I understood the process better and ideas were easier to develop. FL is muuuuuuch better now than in 2016, and I jump in on occasion to change things up & use its instruments to create ideas, then drag back to Ableton. Every daw is just a tool for you to use however it works best for you.

      Same here - I had Live 11 90 day Trial as my very 1st DAW. Then I got an M32 Komplete Kontrol 🎹 with Lite. The 8 Track is too limiting after using licensed FL Studio.
      But WOW after 2.5yrs mastering FL, with Ableton familiarity, going to the 30 day Live 12 Full Licence is just INSANELY efficient. My orphaned samples from old projects are now becoming the nucleus of new tracks, I can play my instruments straight into the Audio Channels or MIDI.
      Assuming unlimited Creativity, the difference is probably a 700% increase in efficiency of Production (7x).

      Another cool thing you can do is take time to learn each audio effect and instrument. IMO if you learn all
      the goodies Ableton offers, you’ll be the king of CPU. 😂 especially the 3 band channel EQ they have.
      Quick on the go eq!
