SPECIAL AFTER HOURS EDITION

We bring to you our first ever evening Supporter Session, free for everyone.

* * * * * *

In this workshop, you’ll work between Ableton Live's session and arrangement views to design loops from scratch.

Resident teaching artist Kate Siefker will cover the fundamentals of manipulating audio and MIDI clips using Live's grid and quantization features to create perfectly synced loops.

Throughout the workshop, you will learn to trigger loops in real-time using Live's session view. Kate will guide you through the process of adjusting loop controls such as start and end points, pitch, and filters.

Finally, Kate will demonstrate how to integrate loops into a larger live set for performance purposes. You'll practice loop triggering, automation, and building a set that flows seamlessly from one section to the next.

This workshop is suitable for those with basic knowledge of Ableton Live.

Please note: ticket registration closes 30 minutes prior to event start time.
