We've just published a new Start To Finish Tutorial for Ableton Live 11 on our new 2nd Youtube Channel "Ableton Tips". In this video PML Tutor Julian / Bound To Divide is making a Deep Melodic House track.
In this video, we are making a track completely from scratch in Ableton Live 11. We are only using Ableton built-in instruments and effects (no 3rd party plugins). Also used, some of our drum sounds which you can download for free. Have fun exploring Ableton Live 11 together with Jules / Bound To Divide.
