Jon Margulies' comprehensive guide to Ableton Live is back! This updated edition does far more than bring you up to speed on all of Live's new features—it teaches fundamental concepts and important workflows that every Live user needs to know. Used in top college programs such as NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, the Ableton Live Power! series is well known as the definitive guide to Live. In this new edition, you'll learn the software in depth and get the lowdown on all the latest updates, including the Wavetable synthesizer, multi-clip editing, Capture, and Live 10’s many workflow improvements. Jon's friendly, engaging writing style and deep knowledge of the program come together to help you hone your production skills without losing sight of what's most making music! “Jon is an Ableton Live wizard, an awesome musician and a great dude to work with. I’ve been a fan for a long time, and over the past few years have relied on him heavily for technical assistance navigating the wild waters of Ableton for my live sets.” – Bassnectar
Well if you are a noob, then you need this. BUT it does not work by itself of course. There are few ilustrations and it just describes the DAW. One has to follow with youtube videos to fully understand and make the book more dynamic. But after this book i feel more confortable and i have finished step 1.
If ABLETON LIVE is your DAW of choice then this book is a must have reference and manual. If you have read the previous POWER books then you may find that there isn't much that you don't already know. However it's a solid series of books and covers everything old and new in version 10.
