Inside Ableton Live 12 Foundation, you’ll learn how to:

Set up your home studio correctly using your audio interface, microphone, headphones, and Ableton’s audio/MIDI preferences.

Navigate Ableton Live 12 with confidence, understanding the purpose of every major panel, control, and visual layout.

Master both Session View and Arrangement View, and know exactly when to use each one during the production process.

Record high-quality audio, including vocals, instruments, and external sources, using proper gain staging and monitoring techniques.

Record and edit MIDI efficiently, building chord progressions, basslines, melodies, and rhythmic ideas without needing advanced music theory.

Create professional drum patterns using Ableton’s Drum Rack, Simpler, and built-in sample packs.

Use essential audio effects like EQ, compression, reverb, delay, and saturation to shape and polish your sounds.

Apply sound design basics using Ableton’s instruments and stock devices to craft your own unique tones.

Arrange a complete song from intro to outro, including transitions, buildups, breakdowns, and variations that keep listeners engaged.

Mix your track using only Ableton stock tools, learning level balancing, panning, EQ cleanup, compression, and creative effects.

Add final polish through basic mastering techniques so your track is loud, clean, and ready for streaming platforms.

Export your finished song in the correct formats for sharing, releasing, or performing.

By the end of the course, you’ll follow a clear, repeatable workflow you can use for every track you produce — even if you’ve never opened Ableton Live before.
