What can you expect from this course?

In these lessons, you will gain a deep understanding of Ableton Live 10 (or previous versions) so that you can use the default tools to build your very own sampled hip-hop beat.  The course strives to improve your hip-hop production, editing, and songwriting, abilities. This course will go over topics such as:

* Sampling from older styles of music

I look forward to seeing you join and hearing about your progress.
