Lesson transcript

Recording Audio Example Set

In this video, I'm going to be showing off the Recording Audio Example Set.

Purpose

This example set is for you to:

  • Download
  • Experiment
  • Play around with the concepts we've been discussing regarding recording audio.

Steps to Get Started

  1. Install the Example Set

    • After installation, follow along on the master track.
  2. Key Activities

    • Record a new sample into the Record Audio Track.
    • Set audio output to your external sound card.

The set goes through everything you need to do to start recording.

Extra Credit

For extra credit, you can also try:

  • Quantizing the recording after you've made it.

This is a great way to practice these concepts and ensure you have them ingrained.

Final Thoughts

I suggest you do this now. If you have any questions about how to do these things, make sure to review the videos from the rest of this module.

It will really help fill in those gaps.

When you're done with this activity, you'll know you have recording audio down!

Isaac Cotec

Isaac Cotec is, arguably, one of the best Ableton trainers in the world! While working on his own music, he began teaching recording techniques, sound design, and Ableton Live to private students, and since earning his certification as an official Ableton Certified Trainer he has helped thousands of producers step up their game and succeed as musicians.

Isaac started producing electronic music in 2005 with Psyche Sonics, an experimental group working with the science and research of binaural beats and altering consciousness through sound. After touring, he continued writing music under the alias Cotec and later emerged as the artist Subaqueous, blending his electronic past with both future and organic production techniques. To date, he has released 3 albums and 4 EPs.

Isaac is also the founder and manager of the record label Invibe Music, which represents some of the Pacific Northwest's best electronic music and specialises in midtempo dance music.

In his Ableton Live courses, Isaac shares the production, sound design and songwriting techniques he has spent years refining - the very skills he uses to turn a spark of an idea into a finished track.
