What's inside the seed to stage courses?

Songwriting and Composition in Ableton Live

In this exciting course, I teach you the unique workflows I've developed with Ableton Live to create incredible and engaging music. I show how to get the musical ideas out of your head and into Ableton Live accurately, quickly, and with style. We go over tactics for pulling emotional responses from listeners, dive into beatmaking, music theory, and so much more!

Sound Design and Synthesis in Ableton Live

This beast of a course is jam packed with deep dive tutorials covering every single Ableton Instrument and Device in thorough detail. Each section also features workflows and practical / actionable synthesis and sound design examples for each device making it the most comprehensive guide for sound design available on the web. Go Beyond Presets!
This course focuses on teaching you the skills to produce professional, release ready mixes. We go over the fundamentals such as Balance, EQ, Automation, the Stereo Field, Dynamics, Saturation, Home studio Treatment, Recording Techniques, and Mastering. But we also get into synergistic effect combos and unique modern workflows to get your mixes sounding incredible.

Live Performance and Looping in Ableton Live

If you're looking to take Ableton onstage, this course is a game changer! Everything from clip launching, MIDI mapping and control, live effect processing, arrangement performance, live instruments, syncing, audio interfaces, live looping using two different approaches, presetting, follow actions, dummy clips, world building and more is covered in this massive training.

Both [the Live Performance & Pigments courses] are very thorough & go into great detail, covering basically anything you need to know. The information is well presented, & the videos don't get boring.

Frequently Asked Questions

I'm new to Ableton, which course should I begin with?

If you are new to Ableton Live, I recommend that when you enroll in my courses, that you also add my new Beginner mini course at checkout:
Your First Song in 11 Days: A Beginner's Course for Ableton Live
This short 11 day training will get you up to speed and primed to take on my main 4 courses with everything you will need to know. If you take the beginner course first, you will gain the skills and terminology needed to hit the ground running on the 4 main courses: Songwriting, Mixing, Sound Design, and Live Performance. You can enroll in any of our four main Ableton courses and add the beginner course during the checkout process at a discounted rate OR choose to bundle it with the main courses for even bigger savings!

Do I need to install anything?

You will need a working version of Ableton Live.
If you do not have Ableton installed, you can get a FREE demo of Ableton for 30 days from Ableton.com!
Also, the folks at Ableton have recognized Seed To Stage as a valued educational outlet. Thanks to them, I am happy to say that we can offer a whopping 30% discount for both NEW and UPGRADED Ableton Live Licenses!
