In this class, we’ll start by exploring your surroundings through field recording and use them as material for composition. Then we’ll bring those recordings into a digital audio environment and process them using experimental sound design techniques. We will explore the potential of sound together and learn how to listen for opportunities. By the end, you’ll have your own custom sound palette and the skills to create unique atmospheres that are unique to you. We will create textures, atmospheric sounds, instrument racks, and even drum racks! This class is perfect for you if you want to have your own unique sound. Don't pay for samples, make your own.

Ableton Live is a powerful tool for live electronic performance, improvisation, and composition. In this introductory class, you'll learn how to build and organize a live performance session from scratch using clips, patterns, and scenes. We'll explore workflows that make live performance intuitive and expressive — from launching clips and creating loops to building dynamic transitions and improvising with effects. You’ll also get tips on organizing your set, routing audio, and preparing for a performance setup, whether you’re playing solo or collaborating with others.
