As someone who is just starting to get into producing music, your videos Ethan have been super helpful. Appreciate the time you put into explaining everything in detail but also making it understandable for beginners like myself. Unreal👏🏻
I'm a longtime casual musician, but new to recording and producing. You're a great teacher and the steps are easy to follow. I love when someone shows me, not just tells me how something works. I love that you give alternatives for those who don't own certain plugins too. Thank you for making this video!
Crazy he is doing this, simplifying ableton to a level everybody understands. Didnt put any effort in Learning on ableton after maybe a week studying it everyday without any good end product but after i saw youre videos you got me to a point in my life where i just come home and try something out doing some things i learned out of youre Videos!! Tysm and i also love youre music 🙏
I have Ableton 11 Suite and Logic, but I followed along in Reason because it's my favorite DAW 😂. Just wanted to say this was such a satisfying tutorial to follow because of your good energy and the Music was enjoyable to listen to. It's super simple but still a dope track. You gave us the necessary buiding blocks to create our own variations and/or repurpose what you're doing here for a new track. Thanks a lot for this!
OMG!! I never noticed the create fade on clip edges before!! I typically work in MIDI, but I was playing with some vocals recently noticed that annoying default behavior. I would then have to go in manually and correct it every time - ugh!! Smashed that "Off" button - thanks for the tip!!!
I always pick up some little bit of advice from these videos no matter how long I've been producing! This time I decided to look into some more OLIVER samples for my drum sounds. i always thought they sounded slightly too disjointed and weak.
Simply brilliant. It's so nice to see you build so nice music while enjoying it and share it with genuine simplicity. It's thanks to people like you that I jumped in. ❤
Pro-Tip: Set the playback speed to 50%... ;-) He says he created the song in 52 minutes, I don't mean to brag, but I'm pretty sure I could replicate this in 52 weeks or less. This man is literally a MONSTER in Ableton, and probably any other DAW that he would decide to use. Thanks Ethan!
am i allowed to swear here? GDAMN DUDE! THIS IS IT! thank you so much. just finished my ableton beginner course (offline with a teacher) and now working on getting my first song out. I am wondering though, why are you working in arrangement view the whole time? I was taught to make everything in session view first and then for the final steps go to arrangement view, so following your tutorial requires complete rewiring of my brain ;-) which i am going to do now, since i love the result you have there and learning new things...
Wooo wooo I got disconnected for a second from RU-vid. And of course, Mr.Davis nails the genre of this video [starts dancing] People need Ethan in their lives for real!
Ethan thank you for the content. It’s helping me learn a lot just in the first couple weeks. Couple questions. • Are your tutorials suited for all three versions of Ableton? I only got the Intro for now just to dip my toes and was wondering if anything you’re teaching will be over my head because I don’t have certain features. • What are or how do you inspire yourself for creating melodies for a song? Thanks in advance. Any tips would help. Happy Holidays and a banger start to 2024. Subbed! 🤙
Hey Ethan could you or your editor tell me where you are learning to make these really good editing techniques i would really appreciate it. Love the vid thanks man
i have that in my course! i have a video on my channel about that as well, it's a big further back, 4 steps to writing a song or something along the lines of that. u should be able to find it easily
Hey Ethan! I just came back from a mammoth 3 day festival in Saudi called MDL Beast SoundStorm and I got to see all my fave teenage and uni years artists (DeadMau5, Axwell, Tiesto AVB) and some new ones like Black Coffee. I came home and dusted off my LPP Mk3 and MiniLab3 which have sat idly for almost 4 years and realised that after listening to my fave acts live is that I never mastered the true basics of music production - DRUM PATTERNS ! Could you please do a video covering the foundational drum patterns according to genres and their respective BPMs? It hit me that I’ll never master the basics of the midi controllers and DAW if I can’t just lay down a simple house drum pattern- no amount of my Splice or my plugins can correct or fill in for that so look forward to a video on this!
@@CompleteProducer Thank you! Ive heard things like "Four On The Floor" and "hats on the upbeat" vs "kicks on the downbeat" but it doesnt translate well when using a step sequencer which makes me think that i need to go right back to basics and nail the patterns on the DAW with a mouse first! Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas!
Are you with isla vista worship?! I love your songs if this is you I can’t tell… but if not I’m a Christian and love house music and making some right now

As a fan of progressive rock and metal music, I would looooooove if progressive electronic music also had odd time signatures and time signature changes within a song. Are there any producers out there who incorporate that in their electronic music? :)
most EDM is based on bars and loops and because of that odd time signatures really mess you up when you're djing. i think almost no one ventures out of 4/4 because they want DJs to play their music haha
Unfortunately the little pic of yr head - bottom left, was covering up the compressor so we couldn't see by how many dB the bass was being cut by the kick
Hello I am biggnner @46 always loved progressive house remixes.. pls advice how to create one from scratch and what all softwares are required Thanks in advance Vishal pahwa
Hello everybody! Does someone know how to create this opening/closing effect of the filter every time a note is played in Ableton? (without Serum) @8:31 What would be some good resources to check out? (:
