FAQs and Requirements

Yes. All sound files work with Ableton Live 11.1 Suite or later. The course was recorded in Live 12 Suite, so the optional step by step course files need Live 12 to open; everything is designed so that you can still follow along with Live 11.1.

119 video lessons in 10 parts (20 h 22 min), 10 Ableton project files, 512 samples (58 essential drums, 20 orchestral themes, 76 sound library, 200 bonus samples, 158 project sounds), 209 MIDI files including 111 song starters, 44 Ableton racks and 12 cheat sheets.
