Why do we use Ableton Live for the Producer Summer School?

At the Producer Summer School we teach in Ableton Live, that’s the leading DAW ( software program), in performing live with software. But not only for live performance, for music production it’s one of the most popular ones too, especially for doing remixes (also live again)! And as a student of the summer school, you get a big discount if you want to buy Ableton!

Ableton Live was launched in 2001 from Berlin, as an alternative for the existing programs, with the big difference that it works with loops, which adapt themselves (for a great deal), automatically to the track you’re working in. The loops you make and collect in the beginning, are easily put in the timeline to build a track straight away.

Pros

Easy to make music with (without music knowledge)
Build to easily time stretch audio “on the fly”, very handy for DJ’s too
Clear layout, simple to use
Ideal for live performances and for loop-based music, like EDM and Techno etc
Used by DJ’s as well, like they’re using Traktor or even together!
Used a lot to do remixes

Cons

Mixer is a little limited and less versatile than in other programs.
Recording audio is not really intuitive
Layout is a bit simple, not a lot of color
Automation doesn’t really work smoothly

These artists work with Ableton Live: DJ MAG top 100 5x nr1. Armin van Buuren, Skrillex, Coldcut, Daft Punk, DJ Krush, Sasha, John Digweed, Richie Hawtin, Nine inch nails, etc.

Available in 3 versions: Intro, Standard and Suite. At the Dutch DJ Academy you get a little more than 40% off the retail price, if you follow a long course like the Producer Summer School.
