Ableton Live - Getting your ideas down into a workable format to create a full working track! No prior knowledge needed!

Von 29 € /Std

I specialise in making music with the computer when there isn't a whole bunch of theory knowledge there. I can teach you to quickly and efficiently make that tune in your head into a reality, then turn that into a full track.

If you have tried a few tutorials or courses and they didn't fit with you because of all the engineering jargon and theory based approach, this course is for you! I learnt to make music because I was hearing all these songs in my head but wasn't good enough at any instrument to materialise them. Ableton allowed me to hash through ideas, jam with them, then finally turn them into a full working track. I have also worked as a live and studio sound engineer so I do have the theoretical knowledge but can communicate in the language of learners from all different levels.

I think there are a lot of people that just need to express what they have in there head and Ableton is by far the best program for that. It is very intuitive, "jammable" and so much fun!

For me Ableton is my instrument but I also play the drums, piano and bass.

Über mich

Hi,

I have been using Ableton and other DAW's for about 9 years. I taught myself so I have a unique way of working and teaching. I can teach from the non-theoretical angle which I find helps a lot of people that just want to make music and cut out the theory (for now).

Bildung

I have a Diploma in Sound Engineering although this was mainly to help me get to learn Pro Tools and get me into the live audio industry. My Ableton Live learnings came from myself.

Erfahrung / Qualifikationen

- Used Ableton to make music in a band for 8 years
- Have knowledge in Pro tools and Logic
- Worked as a sound/stage tech for 2 years

Dear music and piano lover, welcome to my profile page!

My name is Waldemar and I am a classical piano teacher.
I teach young (from 8 years old) and old, individually or in groups.

I received my training from Fania Chapiro in Hilversum and later at the Amsterdam Conservatory with Danielle Dechenne.

Depending on your level, we will in principle cover all aspects of technique and interpretation. You can always make special requests known to me.
In addition, I think it is important to structure the lessons and focus on themes so that you really learn something.

In addition to being a piano teacher, I am also available as a composition, music theory or solfege teacher.

Would you like to take lessons with an experienced pianist? Contact me.

musical regards,
Waldemar

PS And my favorite composer? That's currently Franz Schubert ;-)

Basles for beginners and advanced students.
I give the base and slaples on the bass.
Nothing is more fun than being able to play something at the first lesson and with me that is possible, otherwise it is so boring.
I teach in Pop, Rock, Funk and Reggae ..
It depends on you how often you practice playing.

My name is Ben (26), and I'm a certified drum teacher with about 15 years of experience behind the kit. Previously I have studied jazz drums at Kunstuniversitat of Graz. Currently I'm teaching at multiple institutions in Amsterdam such as: Lucky Beat Music Club, United Pop, British School of Amsterdam.

My classes take place on my boathouse at Weesperzijde, however if you wish I can also come to your place. I can guarantee you that after your first lesson you already will be able to play a simple rock beat!

I can teach you the following:
- Groove
- Speed & Stamina
- Technique
- Music Theory
- Music Production (Beat making) in Ableton
- Controlling dynamics
- DJing
- Body Percussion
- Reading music
- Composition
And much more...

When it comes to teaching, creative lessons and positive energy are my pillars. I do approach every student differently, making sure I am able to show them what is possible on the instrument. I certainly believe that everyone is capable of learning to play the very basics after a short period of time. I do think that since drumming goes back all the way to the primal ages, we all have the drummer inside us, it just hasn't awakened yet. I want to be that person who will awake the drummer inside of who is wanting to learn. I feel fortunate that I'm able to do what I've studied and get to live my passion. There is nothing better than to see a student improve, develop and see when they finally start to "get it".

Hey! My name is Daan and I am a keyboard player, producer and songwriter and I am happy to teach piano at your home in Amsterdam.

I graduated from the Conservatory of Amsterdam pop department and am also very active in bands (as a keyboardist, singer, guitarist, bassist and drummer) and as a producer/songwriter in various genres.

As a teacher, I am mainly concerned with what the student wants to achieve and what can be gotten out of the student. Do you want to learn that one new song by Billie Eilish, or an advanced piece by Stevie Wonder; I can always help you. The great thing about music is that you can learn and perform it at all kinds of levels. My job is to find the right level for the right student, so that progress can be made at the same time as there is fun during the lessons.

In addition, I find it important that my students not only play the piano, but also understand the music and build up a knowledge of the music theory behind the pieces. This has helped me a lot to quickly make big steps as a musician.

You can also contact me if you write songs yourself and maybe even produce them that you want to take to a higher level. I can give you all kinds of tips to get the best out of your own compositions through my experience as a songwriter/producer.

I hope to see you soon!

There are many ways to learn an instrument: individual or group lessons at your local music school, masterclasses, method books, online lessons or video courses, YouTube tutorials, or self-study. While I've learned a lot through all of these methods, nothing beats private lessons with a good teacher. It's inspiring, dynamic, personalised, and you don't have to second-guess yourself because you receive direct feedback.

This course is designed to help you take your guitar playing a step further, no matter your current level. After we've assessed your current level and established your goals, we'll create a personalised lesson plan that will provide you with the know-how you need to take your playing to the next level.
