Date: June 23, 2026 4-5:30pm


Format: Hybrid (In-person with online access)

This will be a quick workshop to get you started in Ableton Live 12: the UI, the arrangement and session views, synths and effects. By the end you should have all the skills you need to start composing, performing, arranging, mixing, and exporting your own music.

No prior experience with Ableton or other DAWs will be necessary! Gonna try to keep this aimed at all skill levels, with an open style so anyone can ask questions as they come up.

If you want to follow along during the session (which you should) and you don’t already have the software, they offer a 30 day free trial for Live Suite: https://www.ableton.com/en/trial/ (there’s no payment required so don’t worry about getting charged a month from now— when the trial ends they just disable save & export)
