In part one of this two part Ableton Push video tutorial, Dubspot instructor and Ableton Live Certified Trainer Dan Freeman demonstrates how to build a track from scratch without any pre-recorded audio using Ableton Push in a live performance setting. Please stay tuned for part two in which Dan breaks down the performance and offers tips for composing in real-time with Push! Head over to our blog for more info: http://blog.dubspot.com/?p=52929 I come from the world of live instruments and my background is actually as a jazz bass player where I learned to have an idea of what the song would be, but create something unique and new with every performance. When I got Ableton Push earlier in the year, I decided to challenge myself to see if it could do 'live production'. By this I mean - starting with no prerecorded loops or audio. It definitely took a lot of practice, and it feels like a really intense version of DJing. When it works it's fantastic, but if you fail, it's pretty evident. In learning to do this live production set, I learned a couple of techniques on the Ableton Push which that I will discuss in the next video. These will help you get some basic idea of ways in which you can use Push for production and or performance. - Dan Freeman Check out our channel page for more tutorials, reviews, recaps, interviews, see what our partners are up to and more!
