Free Ableton Live 12 Music Production Class!
In this segment of the free Ableton Live 12 music production class, J. Anthony Allen provides a concise rundown of the major additions in Ableton Live 12 compared to Live 11. He notes that roughly 10% of the program has changed, introducing a new instrument, a new effect, a mixer that can be accessed directly within the Arrangement view, a suite of new MIDI generative tools that can automatically create melodies and chord progressions, expanded library functionality, and key‑aware device behavior that lets devices follow a set musical key. Allen mentions that a separate, more detailed class exists for an in‑depth exploration of these features, but for the current audience he will assume no prior Live experience and move forward. He then transitions to the next lesson, which will cover navigation within Live, including how to move around the interface, zooming techniques, and workflow shortcuts designed to save time.
