In our students' words.
“The EMP course is a good time and super informative. I've been writing and producing music for the past year in Logic. There was so much I wanted to transcribe from my mind to my DAW, I just didn't fully know how. Fortunately, the EMP course changed that in just a few short weeks. Very exciting. Not to mention the Garnish LA folks are super cool.”

Sampler: Create the ultimate drum rack
The Sample Select feature in Ableton Live can be used to select from multiple loaded samples that are mapped across the keyboard and you can then macro…
Read →Multisampling with Sampler
Building a playable instrument out of your own recordings: how many samples, where to put the split points, velocity layers, round-robin, and importing third-party libraries.
Read →Spectral Resonator and Spectral Time
Two effects that work on the frequency spectrum rather than the waveform. Resonator turns anything pitched; Spectral Time freezes and smears it. The most distinctive processors Live ships.
Read →CDJ Firmware, rekordbox Updates and Beatmatching Without a Screen
Why a USB that worked last week won't load tonight, carrying CDJ firmware on your stick, saving My Settings, and the drill that makes the screen optional.
Read →Wave: Auditioning Wavetables Using an Envelope
Auditioning wavetables using an envelope is a particularly useful technique when working with wavetable synthesis, as it allows you to explore the full…
Read →What Live Does and Does Not Change
Ableton publishes exactly which operations in Live are bit-transparent and which alter the audio. Some of it is surprising, and all of it is worth knowing before you argue about it online.
