Acoustic Recording Techniques Using Ableton and Health and Safety in the studio 12 /5 /16

Today we used the Ableton music software alongside the Ableton push pad to create beats. I enjoyed doing this as it meant that I was in control of how the beat sounded and that i could add whatever i wanted to add to it



Here i was experimenting with Ableton push pad to develop beats. I found it easy to use and i found it enjoyable because also i find it easy to audition different sounds which is good for song writing.
